    Morning all

    LW thinking of you this morning and virtually holding your hand

    JoJo a lovey aah way to start the day reading your proud post. Well done to DD a flourishing moment

    I have cleaned the cat vomit from the rug
    Emptied the DW
    Emptied the kitchen bin (running down the driveway in my PJs as wheelie is already out for collection)

    Need to iron DS3 a school top and then start the morning wake up calls. Plus DS1 needs to strip his bedding so I can get that in the machine before the school run

    Off walking with a friend straight from school

  • Morning all. DH has day off today so we are going out for celebration lunch to a new restaurant which is getting good reviews. Flying may be minimal:D

    Vanilla - hugs. It will all work out ok eventually.
    JoJo - congrats to Minion. I don;t mind mine being obnoxious at home if they can behave like decent human beings outside. DS2 is being a bit of a challenge at school at the mo - is starting to get a rep for messing about so now has a detention just for standing by another kid who also has that rep. For an intelligent lad he can be a complete moron sometimes:mad:

  • Morning flyfriends

    I've been up since 4am. Got a phone call from a pal who had lost his wallet and was at the police station and needed picking up so OH went. I went to Tesco when he came back and then sorted out DS2's birthday stuff. Shopping put past and I have started my dailies.

    Morning all

    Jojo your post made me smile :)
    LW thinking of you
    Juliejim you're on the ball this morning! I always sit on my bum for at least an hour after I get up! At least I've ordered some more pressies from play.com this morning!
    Everyone with cat issues - why do we bother with the little beasts! Mine is constantly bringing me "presents" (frogs being his current gift of choice), pees in the corner of the conservatory, constantly trips me over and steals food but never even sits on my lap! Beast.

    Anyway, DS1 is at preschool the whole day today (if he ever gets up) so can tackle kitchen and conservatory and get Monday and today crossed off. The master bedroom needs some attention too, so I might make a start on the floordrobe if I get time. I can feel a lurgy coming on...
    Hx
    So, there are these boys,
    They kinda stole my heart,
    They call me Mummy


    WW 37lb (2 STONE 9lbs! :j ) lost since July, 11tybillion to go...

    Slow start to the morning as i had one two many when out last night. Didn't actually have much to drink but realised when it went to my head that i'd only had a sandwich to eat all day. Not intentionally just really busy. So, just decluttered a plate of bacon and waffles and will take today slowly - no loud noises please x x
