morning all! I'm in!
Got loads to do - DD2 has a day off so need to prod her to do some homework.
DD1 woke me at 2am with ear pain - don't want to have to go to the docs - she hasd a scan tomorrow (for cysts) and to go out 2/3 days running is too much!
Healthy ear vibes would be very much appreciated!:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
Phew I'm bk
I managed say 1 of week 4 of running made easy:jeven though I still have a bad knee. So thats run, walk pooch, shower off my list of things to do today. DS isn't himself this morning, he wasn't last night either so I think a day of school needed for him to rest up as he refuses to take medicine so I can't even dose him with calpol to make me feel better about sending him! So hoping our friend can take DD1 to school save getting him dressed and dragging him out!!

Morning everyone,
Just about survived the invasion of the in-laws, they left to see OH's sil and niece and nephew in Glasgow on Friday morning - leaving me with DS1 who had been up all night coughing and spent the day puking :eek: He has a stomach upset still now poor thing. Hoping it clears up by Wednesday so he can go to school as he really missed it on Friday.
So after a busy week (the weekend's festivities went really well, even though I was exhausted!) I totally flopped and did nothing over the weekend except laundry (copious amounts as DS1 was sick everywhere and now his trousers are suffering too_pale_ ) so the house is a bomb site. Just surface grot but it needs a good going over. My extras this week are to sort out the junk cupboard and drawer in the kitchen, and also scale down my cutlery drawer as I can barely open it without something jumping out. There are 2 cupboards and two drawers, and a chest of drawers upstairs that needs sorting so one a day and it should be done. Listed 12 things on Ebay yesterday and used most of my padded envelope collection yesterdayso that's a start.
We're really broke this month so hoping some of the ebay stuff sells, which I doubt. It's just a few bits Jake has grown out of or wont wear again as they're out of season summer things, but as most of them are newborn or 0-3 months and pregnant people due next summer wont know what they're having yet I don't think they'll sell. I'm hoping someone going on holiday somewhere hot spots them but I doubt it. There are a few winter bits which are tiny baby, and some vests as I have thousands, and it was free listing so it can't hurt to try.
Menu plan is done until the end of the month (well payday) and should just need to buy bread and milk, possibly catfood and some freezer veg. Hopefully have enough nappies and formula (although not if DS1's stomach bug doesn't clear up soon :eek:) and then the rest of the money we have will go on getting OH to work, which seems to be getting more and more expensive. But he's had a bit of overtime already so that might go some way to starting buying for the C-word...
So, let's have a look at this list
