Thanks for joining me AnW'smum and maybemischief! How did you get on?
I've emerged from the close of doom which now looks and smells a bit nicer, but was utterly filthy!
Also mopped the kitchen floor. Someone remind me that it's soooo much easier to mop the floor if you remember to replace the mop head every so often. Took me half the time it usually does today because I replaced it before I started.
Cup o'tea and a biscuit anyone?

DH has booked a private scan £100 :eek::eek::eek: - I'm thinking he'll save that much in tissues if it's reassuring and I stop blubbingThursday morning we'll know
Piggers is your OH having a general for the wisdom tooth?? I had a general for a back one, and the day I had it done I felt fantastic, came out of hospital went shopping - day after..... urrghhhhhh. Anyway if he's got a general it might not hit him straight awayAnd Baby is the spit of it's dada.
radio this morn says boots are selling DNA paternity test thingies - spose he could stump up the cash for it if he's really that daft?? (or the thought of it might just shut him up
)
If it helps.. I never felt ill with ANY of mine.. I was totally completely and utterly incapable of anything other than sleeping for the first 4 months though
He doesn't deny she is his baby.. in fact it would have been impossible for her not to be seeing as he barely left my side for the relevant month.. he just insists she doesn't look like him.
And he is not having a general.. but it is his grans funeral in Manc. tomorrow and a drive of 120 miles there less than 24 hours after having it done might be way too ambitious.. I think he is silly even comtemplating it as he is likely to be maxed up with painkillers.. I did offer to change this appointment for him and he said to leave it and he will see how he feels in the morning. We shall see he may be absolutely fine.LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -

In my HHI I got all the ironing done, and folding, and put all the clean washing away
.
Think I will hang the sheets out now, and the rest indoors.
Will update my list later. xxErmutigung wirkt immer besser als Verurteilung.

took down dry washing and folded and put away or put to iron
put up wet washing
