pigpen

Vanilla that is fabulous news! My 15 y/o DS still can't ride a bike!!! I feel your joy!

3 loads out on the line..
WM refed.. with sicky throw.. dirty cat!
DW emptied

I am incredibly miserable today... I think I need to pull myself together a bit before I tear people to pieces.

mamaninie

done a bit and updated previous post:j

Uropachild thankyou for sharing your story, such a tragedy. I can only imagine the anger and grief you've been through

I had low-lying placenta myself in my first pregnancy (which moved by 32 weeks) and certainly wasn't told of any increased risk - I went on to have my first of 2 home births. I had a lot of bleeding during that labour which they knew about on the phone and which worried me a lot, but seeing as they didn't bother to turn up until 20 mins before the birth they didn't have a chance to assess it properly (it was a 30 hour labour by the way, but MWs seem to be incapable of believing a woman in labour.....) I feel very blessed to have had 2 straightforward labours and health babies.

My rain dance worked!

Thunder and forked lightning and crackles and rumbles in the sky -


and here comes the rain!!!!!!! Ping pong ball sized blobs!


[does insane cackling and puts kettle on]

The cats were quite happy to sit outside whilst I decluttered the bolted lettuces from the veggie bed, but were equally pleased to follow me in once the birds stopped singing and the local dogs started barking (the point at which I usually head for indoors).



Piggers, we all think you're wonderful - and the stresses you are under (including the ones you aren't telling us - just try and deny it )) make how you're feeling a perfectly reasonable reaction. I can't say or suggest anything to make it better for you, but you aren't as alone as you may think, as you have a Flylady Army behind you.

[wanders off to collect tea from kitchen and considers removing detrius from the worktop]

Well I'm really not..

WM's both on again.

OH back with Squeak... we put her in the front room and took the shopping to the kitchen.. cue missing Squeak... she had gone exploring up the hallway to the middle room where she found Duplo! She appears to be behaving better since she got back

toochoosey

Back from work, had lunch and cleaned up from that........feeling really shattered now though, so going to make a list of 5 things that NEED to be done....maybe off Pigpens list, may not (will have a little look...........).......

• Scrub the spuds
• Put dinner on
• put clothes away
• Tidy desk
• mop the floors

We'll see how much I can get done of that in the ad's........xx

ETA.....also thinking I should get the washing in with all this talk of thunder....I seem to be getting caught out a lot lately!!!
