  • Good luck ShySarah - will be thinking of you.

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.


    Snowball says too far away, working hard to bring it forward.

    Morning All

    Thinking of you Sarah - 'see' you when you get back.

    I've spent another hour in the kitchen - still not finished though. DH has made breakfast and created more mess but hey-ho. Will attempt to finish the kitchen tonight before I go to Cubs. Better get dressed now though and think about going to work!

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Just thought I'd better check on the library books and renew them - lucky I did as they expire today!

  • Good luck Sarah!!

    Isn't it lovely to come downstairs in the morning to a clean tidy kitchen and FR.
    I'm pleased its my room today as I'd planned to strip both beds today anyway and my room is still in a good tidy state after the blitzing a few weeks ago so a quick dust and vac will see it back to being excellent which may wait until tomorrow so that I can garden today.
    DD's packed lunch is done and I'm just finishing my coffee then will pop in the shower.
    July grocery- 24.40/220. NSD-1/3.
    Myself, DD, 2 cats, 35 weeks pregnant.

    Morning! My idea today is to get the list now and then not post again until it's completed:eek:. Mmmm, just realised that means there's a chance I'll never post again:rotfl:.

    My get up and go has definitely got up and gone! I'm Christmas shopping with a friend today - we've opted for the Trafford Centre which I'm not keen on but at least it's warm. Children are having tea at my parents tonight so the plan is to fly between 4 and 6. That's the plan anyway:D.

    Good luck Sarah...thinking of you.

    See you later xx

    Good Luck ShySarah, try not to get worried or anxious, its a routine operation that happens everyday, it will be over and done with before you know it.

    My ongoing list, loving the new painkillers but they make me tired but not dopey and give me an upset stomach which im not loving :( work are taking me down the formal absense review stage so am annoyed with that because they know ive done/am doing everything i can to get back to 100% so one more episode of back pain where i cant move without being in agony im taking the doctors note rather than recovering at home for a few days on stronger painkillers and then going in.

    Chimps at church club this evening
    Freja still in bed, just waking up actually so I'll have her to feed in a minute.

    Today I want to achieve..

    Empty wash baskets!
    Vacuumed downstairs.
    Declutter 2 pushchairs (they are away to charity shop once we get the car back!)
    Replace 1 of said pushchairs! (off to ebay I go!)
    Purchase rockband for the DS3 and a new pc and monitor for DS2.. actually they are both to share but I need to get them anyway.
    Chase roofer
    Finish back of Tiddles cardy
    Make appt @ biomechanical clinic (podiatry!) For Tiddles new pink things.. hers snapped in half at the weekend! Ask if we can self-refer for DS2.
