Good morning ladies.
Lying low - I'm not well, stomach pain and chucking up bile all night.
DD1 is going to take the littlies to school for me, I need to text my boss and cancel my nail appointment.
I hope your visit to the hygienist isn't too awful Dusty.0 -
Feel better vibes to Mumto5!
DS very poorly last night - i tucked him up with 2 duvets and hot water bottles at 10 last night - he was shivvering uncontrollably. At 6am I got him more a/b's and parrots and he looked awful..... but by 8am he had his top half out from under the duvet so it looks like his temp is more controlled now!
Hopefully he'll be over the worst!
He was supposed to play footy for the first time in ages last night - obviously he didn't...... but his mates did. He got a text at 8 last night telling him his best mate had broken his ankle.....:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

Hi guys, I have been away with work for a couple of weeks but my laptop stopped working so I couldn't say goodbye. Got back at silly o'clock this morning so am having a lazy day while trying to sort everything out. I have made my own list up as otherwise I will try doing all the published list today and end up more tired. I am already on my 2nd load of washing this morning and am busy checking banking, deleting emails etc
MY LIST
Finish unpacking
Put everything away
Do final load of washing
Dry rest of washing
Ironing
Quick blitz of the house with DH at the weekend
Get passport photos for DH
Price up house insurance
Check insurance for work stuff
Price up instrument insurance
Price up life insurance
As you can see we have a lot of insurances about to expire or that I think we can get a better price for so will be spending a lot of time doing this.MFW 2025 No. 7 £1130/£1200
