    Afternoon all
    Positive flylady vibes would be much appreciated if anyone can spare them - DD1 and I have a CAB meeting at 2pm about help for her appealing her DLA rejection. She is finding the whole prospect very scary!

    Not caught up with the end of last weeks thread - Dusty - is there positive news on Ed?

    I hope all goes well. Ed had facial surgery on Friday which he survived but is still in a deep sleep. Only time will tell if he is still there or not :(

    I'm still feeling poorly with continued tummy pain but being a Mum I really have to get on with it. I look about 6 months pregnant I am so distended:(.

    I went to see Olly Murs at the O2 last night and he raised my temperature a bit ;).

    Glad you saw Olly. GP for you if you are not better PDQ. Have you tried probiotic tablets? (not the silly yoghurt drinks)
    Morning ladies :)
    Had the scan last week and found out we are expecting a BOY :D DS is very pleased he is gaining a brother and keeps trying to donate his toys to him (he is convinced that a newborn will want all his old lego :rotfl:).

    Congratulations

    Lamewolf you are not to do anything on the lists at all which in anyway is painful, if that means all of it then that is all of it!

    Physio with DS3 done
    DS1 ill in bed with the throat thing the others had last week.

    I'm going to do a HHC in the kitchen and then return my mother's phone call.

    Wolfie, goodness you do sound bad. Pip and I send you a big but very gentle hug being very careful to mind your shoulder and she gives you a licky kiss too (after I've made sure she's not eaten any chicken poo :eek:). Just rest and I hope that your shoulder heals really quickly - will you have to go to the GP? Wrap up in a blanket and watch DVDs; that's what I always do when I'm ill.
    Awww, thanks - canine cuddles are always a help.:o I hope Pip's being a sensible girl and wearing her coat in this weather!;)

    Re the GP - I have to visit her in April in any case, and given that appointments with her at a time when Mr LW is available to take me are as rare as rocking-horse-poo, I think I'll probably leave it til then (Also, I'm terrified of medical bods, which doesn't help).:eek:

    I've managed to go over all the work surfaces, table and trolley with Dettox and a cloth, and Mr LW has said he'll put the duster-onna-stick round the relevant rooms each evening while I'm like this, so we won't be living in a complete pig-sty just yet.:D

    Also, I made a quiche yesterday, and there's enough for tonight's dins, Mr LW will just do a few chips to go with it when he gets it. HM cherry pie for dessert!:drool: S0d the diet - we need pie!:rotfl:

    Ooh, talking of Jack Russells, there were three in the pub the other day - my friend Megan, her fella Jasper, and their son Henry.:D
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Unexpectedly in today, as school closed - the site is too snowy and icy for safety.

    I did the kitchen on Thursday, and have done the cloakroom, hall and living room today.

    I'm simmering some marmalade at the moment - the house smells delicious! I'm planning to graft seams on DD's jumper, then block it (which I've not done before, so will be followibng instructions!).

    I also have a teensy bit of school work to do.

    :hello:Hi to all my flylady friends, and love, hugs and get better vibes to those who are feeling under the weather.

    poohbear i really hope the appeal goes in your favour

    Thank you but I am already worrying in advance of a reapplication due later this year. I was accepted without having to appeal the last twice but with all the media coverage I presume I will lose it next time.
