    TMI Valli :p

    Piggers... Totally get where you are coming from. However much anyone who wants a baby wants one, I don't think anyone would disagree with you that in the circumstances it might be for the best. Can you put something in their tea to stop them doing anything silly and spontaneous :D

    Bathroom is progressing... My mother is dead heading the front garden, and work are STILL trying to fix my laptop (at least this time it is someone competent!)

    And I've worked on three presentations...

    Need to think about making cake now...
  • Good morning :D
    Up & dressed, washing on line, WM on again, breakfast had, emails & bank a/c checked. I have started to sort out my stuff for the weekend - sorted out some matching underwear! :D I thought I had better make the effort!!
    Ok - what's next? (goes away to check lists....)

    Ok - I am going to sort out 'that' pile of paper (that has been there all week :o), finish sorting my weekend bag, hang more washing out & text the lady about the contracts....
    i will be back to report on progress :)

    [STRIKE]pay parking fine[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]pay CC[/STRIKE]
    find OH's birth cert (for pension scheme application, so it's important)
    GP's re sicknote once OH is out of hospital
    make sure OH has all his meds (check about patches)
    print off form for DVLA (have to be notified of his condition)
    print off directions to resort
    print off car insurance details
    find breakdown cover details
    print off other holiday info
    e-mail accommodation to say that we may be a day late (if OH too tired to go tmw)
    check mail
    wash, dry and iron
    put clothes away
    take DS2 for swimming lesson :D (haven't watched him for 2 weeks)
    collect DS2's swimming pass from friend who took him last week
    holiday-related shopping
    bank for kids spending money
    [STRIKE]update budget, so I know where we stand [/STRIKE]:eek:
    write packing list
    [STRIKE]frog list 1st draft[/STRIKE]
    shower

    This list seems to be growing. As soon as I cross something off, I think of other stuff to do. OH still doesn't know when he'll be out - I'd hoped for an indication whether it will be before 2pm. Problem is, once he phones I'll need to get off fairly promptly.
  • i got distracted, going to do a HHC now :)

  • Fluttering gently here - cattle class has done something horrid to my back, so hobbling about feeling 80+. Fingers crossed my physio can do something when I see him later..it's not helpful feeling this rubbish and DH has a long late work day today.

    2 x wm so far, about to [STRIKE]bribe[/STRIKE] ask DS to hang it out
    Have thank you cards to write
    Need to sort meals for later & weekend
    Need a big shop, may just do online if I can get an early enough delivery slot#
    Hmm wonder if DS would like to hoover about for me?
    GreenBee's bribery cake may be in order....

    HHFlutter at 10.45 anyone?

    Moam
    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.

    Everyone slept in here this morning and then we got a phone call to remind hubby he's in at the center today to help with plastering (i'm so glad he went and i think he'll enjoy it), if he's any good i may make him do our room instead of getting someone in to do it. ;)

    Then BIL rang looking my sister who's not here so he said they would be up this evening so i need to make sure i've enough in for dinner.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
