Afternoon all

I am working this evening 16.00 - 01.00 I do hate shifts :mad: but thats another story.. last one tonight then 2 days off and back to earlies.

Currently cooking lunch before I go.. Chicken, new pots and veg all roasting in garlic & thyme. Will chuck some tomatoes in and cover with cheese when nearly finished. DH will be impressed all he'll have to do is re heat his dinner when he gets home.

My new DAB radio arrived this morning (was an xmas prezzie but had some issues so they sent a new one) Listening to Radio 4 .. I have just discovered it and am hooked (Should I love this much at the age of 29).... My mum laughed when I told her.. she said im tuning into her :rotfl:

Anyway better get a few jobs done before I go to work

bitsy - no chance of that my body seems to think it doesnt need sleep

gave everywhere a quick hoover. ds is sat watching thomas. doesnt seem to have energy for much else. tried him with a bit of soup. had a couple of mouthfuls but that was it. wondering whats wrong with him as usually he's really active and climbing everywhere. noticed a couple of spots on his tummy so possibly a virus or something. def not chickenpox. he's had it badly once already and its not a poxy sort of spot...

Afternoon ladies,
I hope the twins enjoy Pre-school
Bitsy glad you DD enjoyed pre-school, it eases your mind no end when they enjoy themselves.
A day of studying today, so another NSD I am feeling quite proud of myself because I have kept up with fly lady and I have been keeping a spending diary which makes me feel really good. I hope I keep it up.
Dinner tonight is Ham bubble and eggs. The ham is leftover from christmas, the bubble has been frozen so a nice easy dinner for me tonight. We are going to take the kids and the pooch out this afternoon as a bit of family bonding time as OH has been working all weekend.
Tomorrow I am having another study day and I am up the school for target setting tomorrow.
Have a good day everyone.
Louise xx

Hi everyone,

I only seem to be able to post once or twice a week - work's really busy atm. I'm winding down in my head because I finish work at the end of March and I can't wait. It's not that I dislike my job, sometimes it's a struggle with my health issues so I'll be glad not to have to force myself in when I'm feeling ropey.

I'm still playing with my new kitchenaid. The cheese bread I made came out well and I made Yorkshire pudding batter for the first time ever (I know, it's a waste to do in the mixer but I wanted to, so there). I don't eat it so I've always bought them when we've had beef, which isn't often. They didn't rise hugely but DH, DS and GF all said they tasted good.

DS and GF brought their washing over because their machine has broken - 5 loads of it. My poor machine will be going next.

JackieO good luck for your dD tomorrow.

Halight i hope the twins had a good time and well done to Bitsy's DD, it makes such a difference when they go in happily.

Evening all

Well work wasn't as bad as I expected, my 2 colleagues were ok with what we had done to the office We tackled the kitchen today, it was horrid but it's now sparkling . We also started to tackle our stores which is huge!! We chucked out loads of old crap; have a pile for the charity shop; huge pile of recycling; and have put things in piles for when they go back in the room. It's a huge task but needs to be done. The boys left it to us girls and the new student to sort out, but that was ok cos they would never have been as ruthless as us! :rotfl:

I'm knackered now though. So glad I have leftovers for tea , and for lunch again tomorrow! I unloaded the DW and put some bits in the recycling when I got home (after a much needed shower!).

Off to cwtch in on sofa with cuppa and magazine

Have a fab evening all

Adelight - I feel your pain. My glands are up and down at the moment. I find ibuprophen and Vicks vapour rub help. Along with steaming. Hope you're feeling better soon x

mioliere - good news re your BIL. Crossing everything that it works xx

blondy - welcome

DD did really well at pre school. Came out all smiles and gave me a big hug. Such a change to DS who hated going and took a long time to settle there.
Chicken and chorizo stew for tea. Cooking a mahoosive chicken at the moment that I will pull apart later. Going to look at some of the Jamie Oliver 30 min recipes, watch it the other day and it looked yummy.

No housework yet so need to get my butt into gear.

have good afternoon everyone.

Bisty, was it your DDs first day at pre school too?????
Im glas she got on well.
My mom says that my first day at nusery was great for me i really enjoyed it:j:j It was my mom who could not cope with me going. My dad was out of work at the time so he took me. As she did not think she would be strong enough to leave me.
What a turn around now she took my twins with my wife this morning.

I will be updateing on my twins first day in a bit.

Anyway im pleased that your DD got on well. Its a very big thing there first day:A

Afternoon all,

DD was up again in the night with a high temp, took her to docs this morning, she has tonsillitis, so has a course of anti b's and no school for a couple of days. Hopefully she'll be back at school on Wed. Work are ok with me, I have some carers leave I can take.

Not sure yet about tea as DD not eating much so I may just do beans on toast for me, yum!

Halight - hope the twins have a good first day

Bramble - hope your 1st day is going well.

adelight - hope you're better soon.

Hugs to everyone else xx

Sorry to here taht you DD has tonsillitis, I use to get it a lot between the ages of 18-20. Iv not had it now since i was about 24.(30 now) It just make you feel so run down. Its a lot worse than haveing a heavey cold if you ask me.

I haope she gets better soon:)
