Morning everyone,
Sounds like you had a realy good holiday FB, I am really jealous.
Hugs to all that need them, especially Lou, keep on trying to eat something, I am sure that it will make you fee, a little better.
Today I have a much quieter day at work so hopefully I can get some of my marking out of the way before a busy weekend.
I am meeting an old school friend in Sheffield for the day tomorrow, really looking forward to it, but before then i have to get DD2 to a netball match about half an hours drive away from home.
Tonight I am going to see Mike Harding at the theatre ( showing my age there!) which was a birthday present from a friend, should be good.
Tea tonight is HM pizza, well it is friday.
Have a lovely day everyone.:)0 -

Work later.
Flutterby - your hols sound brilliant!:)
RR - hope you manage to get your Dad sorted out ok x x
Molly - enjoy your course
(((hugs))) to Lou x x x
Plans this morning - have already tidied and mopped the floors. Washing is on the line. There's ironing to do but might leave it till tomorrow.
Need to pop into town to the bank.
Got to get DS up and shove him in the bath before dropping him off on my way to work.
DH is fending for himself tonight as I dont finish till 10 o'clock. Its cauli cheese for tea at work so I'm happy:T
Have a great day all xDo what you love :happyhear0 -
Me again. Thanks for the comments, it was truely a trip of a lifetime. I'm so looking forward to putting 4 more stars on my world map
I managed to go back to sleep for a couple hours so feeling more human nowBut when I woke up I couldn't work out where I was! :rotfl: Definately a sign of too much travelling!
OS update - WM been on with final load, TD being used as have no space left to dry clothes! I really want some toast but I can't find the toaster, I think my flatmate may have put it away as she doesn't eat (she is on Cambridge) but I can't find it in a cupboard!

Little late today, been a busy morning (well for me anyway
)
I saw the midwife yesterday, but by the time I got in there the Low BP was a real issue and she actually noticed that I wasn't at all well and was very concerned about me (but since there was someone else in the room, it could have been why i got a good service).
She checked my blood work, and although the Dr is adament I have Low BP, the midwife actually told me if I get worse I am to keep going back, or even go to the maternity hospital for a check up just in case (Wow! At last I am being taken seriously by her!!!!) i am not to stay at home suffering.
Bump has grown 3cm in 5 weeks (I'm not sure this is normal, but I see her again in 3 weeks so we'll see) but I have white blood cells in my urine (possible UTI apparently) but I have no UTI symptoms! So I am getting another sample tested today.
I am also seeing the nurse today for my ears (syringing) because the Low BP causes vertigo, and my ears are blocked making it SO MUCH WORSE! Which is why I think I got poorly yesterday, when my ears are bad I am sensitive to air pressure changes and there is a lot of that at the moment!
if the ears syringing doesn't help the vertigo/Low BP over the weekend I will take the midwifes advice and go back to my Dr and start nagging I think, because it sure would be nice to have a proper check-up at the maternity hospital (for peace of mind)
Butterfly Brain I have thought about complaining, problem is she is the only midwife available here, so I am planning on putting a complaint in AFTER I no longer need to deal with her. Problem is her son and mine also go to school/cubs together... I just don't want to cause issues.
Tonight I am taking DS to his Dad's again.
I have no idea about dinner (it's pretty much fend for yourself at the moment in our house)!
This weekend I am planning on actually packing my hospital bags, and working on the cat net for the crib (which I want finished by a week monday - 34 weeks!). Then Baby Roo can turn up anytime and we'll be prepared!
Hope you all have a great day x
And a great weekend xWe spend money we don't have, on things that we don't need, to impress people we don't like. I don't and I'm happy!:dance: Mortgage Free Wannabe :dance:Overpayments Made: £5400 - Interest Saved: £11,550 - Months Saved: 240 -
Morning everyone.
Got recycling to take to recycling point, want to have a go at some crafting, got Forest Schools this afternoon with DS and that will probably be my day over with. Need an early night to tonight, was half twelve last night :eek: tea tonight will probably involve sausage. Fancy having pigs in blankets after Frugal Queens blog the other night :rotfl:
Not much else going onloads of washing and fun things like that :rotfl:
FB glad you are home safe, trip sounds fantastic :T
Redruby am disgusted at what they gave your dad. That's something you have for a supper after dinner, not a main meal :mad::mad: how many old folkmgo down hill quick because staff are not monitoring their liquid and food intakehe's lucky you all go so often to see him xxxx

Morning all! Hugs to everyone :grouphug:
Ironing done before work, quite impressed with myself there :T I've decided I'm going to treat myself to another top from Debs at lunch in the sale, then I'll have two going out tops to see through the Christmas and New Year festivities.
Work is very quiet again, roll on hometime, the countdown to the weekend has begun.
Hope you all have a lovely day xxx0 -

Morning everyone, not long awoke from a 12 hour sleepHaven't quite got my brain fired up yet so I have nooo clue what I need to do today. Made a big aromatherapy/oil order online yesterday so I'm going to be making bath oil gifts and beauty products when they get here, i'm finally ditching the last of my expensive branded skincare :eek:

Morning All
Flutterby I'm sooo jelous, that's the holiday I would love to do. Get some pictures up on flickr and give us the link:D
RRThat's really scary actually, do not let them get away with it.:mad:
MoorhenI love Mike Harding and I'm 31, so you may not be giving your age away as much as you think. My mum had "Mrs Harding's Kid" on vinyl and she let me listen to it from when I was about 14, I loved it and started getting his other albums on tape. I've been to see him twice, once about 15years ago, and again last year. He's still really funny.:D
OS wise, I have a rolled brisket in the SC. I've never done brisket before, so we'll see how it turns out. I'm following a recipe I found one here, so I'm sure it will be nice:D I'm trying to persude hubby to take me to Hobbycraft today. They have A2 cutting mats for under £10, and I have a lot of sewing to do. Hubby does all the cuting for me anyway, so it's really for him....;) Been in too much pain to do anything for the past few days, the house is slowly filling with stuff that needs sorting, but isn't important enough to ask hubby to do, when he's busy looking after me. All the snakes got fed last night though, so that's one thing off the list.
