Hello
Can't catch up much but I've been a right busy bee flying round. Got stuck at DPs work for 3 hours this morning/yesterday morning but came back and flew like only a woman can clearing the entire dining room which was 4 feet deep in random gibblish piles! Really pleased with my little self. 5 large bags of unneeded gibblish stuff disposed of.
Managed to fit in 4 washer loads....one is still out I've remembered as I type so hope for no rain until after 6am! Got DW on twice. Popped to visit DPs Dad. Got DPs backside kicked into gear to start a new college course.
Pretty productive day. I'm finally getting somewhere!
Got an important meeting with heads of services tomorrow for talks which will no doubt include lots of cut backsso best get some sleep as I'll need to be on my toes
(hugs) for those who need or want, see you all tomorrow xxOne day I might be more organised...........

Morning,
I've woken up with a tummy upset. Terrible timing. My homestart volunteer course starts today and they have warned that I can't miss any of the training sessions.
Better go and rifle through the medicine box for the appropriate medicine. Very glad I sorted it last week (thanks Pigpen).0 -
Hope you're feeling better soon mumto5 and enjoy your course.NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

Mumto5 hope your feeling better soon, seems loads of bugs, colds and virus's are going about at the minute.
I've just slept for 10 hours so i'm feeling loads better and ready to sort all out today. Fingers crossed it goes better than yesterday.
Really need to crack on with the flying today, house is a tip.
Gonna get the DW emptied, breakfast made, wm on, td on, get me and Rhys dressed and hubby up.Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -

Back to work today at 12 and not looking forward to it. I sooooo want to be a lady of leisure after having the past few weeks off but thats not going to happen till we have kids and our own house so by the time we have kids they will keep me so busy i wont be a lady of leisure, fingers crossed in 2 years time we have the house so that we can start trying. would try now but OH is one of those people that everything needs to be perfect. i.e no debt, our own house before trying for a family. the debt (his car and my loan) will be paid back early next april/may) and then its just continue saving more for a deposit. however there are a few properties we are keeping our eye on budget wise so if they are at the right price next year then we could be going for it then and letting the car and my loan run its course. i just needed to ramble as i keep looking at houses online and just want to go for it now and its driving me mad that OH wants to wait till we have X in the bank before doing anything.
