Finishing my cuppa and then will sort out the menu fronts so they are done. Honeymoon packing needs to be done by Wednesday lunchtime so can wait a bit.

    Im going to get showered and dressed and then go shopping, ive reserved a pressure washer so i can clean the manky outside bins (trust me its a rubber glove job to put anything in them :eek:) and then going to maybe hit ikea and get 2 chest of drawers for my bedroom but would need to bribe someone to put them up for me. Might give Waynes uncle a phone and see if he would help me out.

    Then Im also going to hit mothercare for a car seat. Now i dont know if they will keep it for me or if its going to be needed to be taken away now? does anyone know as once ive got the car seat sorted well then thats me got the BIG things i need for bubs.

    will fly when im back at some point this afternoon, the kitchen isnt bad, the floor just needs the most attention and will also work from last weeks list for my bedroom as whilst its nice here i might as well get my bed stripped and made and also clear out the wardrobes and charity shop a pile more.

    Morning campers, am up and semi awake. I slept on the downstairs sofa last night as I kept DH awake with my tossing and turning and kicking out at him in my sleep. So rather than him sleep downstairs, as he has to get up for work at 4.30am, I decided to sleep there. Wished I hadn't though as my dog Jet decided he wanted to sleep with me or bounce up the stairs to his dad. So I am plying myself with lots of tea to wake me up. Plus I feel rather !!!!! due to this darn cold/bug thing that I developed over the weekend. I look like a mini gerbil with swollen glands at the moment :( Also Aunt Flo has been here for just under a month now :eek: and it is really starting to get me down.:(

    Hugs JoJo xxx

    Still, the cleaners are probably in as we speak so at least there's not much flying to do, aye ;)
