    Morning All :wave:

    Thanks JulieJim for the lists this week, I am in again, DH and I had a blitz yesterday for 3 hours before going a long walk with kids so hopefully I can keep on top of it this week as OH is backshift. I can cross of a few bits already so after dinner tonight, it will just be a quick S & S and HHI with Hollyoaks

    Sorry to hear of the poorlies, welcome to all the newbies

    RubberbiscuitWelcome to the thread, you will like it here, As a person with allergies, your house would be a nightmare for me, I can understand not having an iron, some people don’t iron (I am not one of those :rotfl:) do you have a carpet sweeper or just not bother? (I have an 18 yr old cat BTW but she was a stray I took in 14 years ago and not a cuddly cat, think I have built up an immunity against her)

    JoJo– If you like him and you already know him then…go for it! Good Luck!

    Piggers – What a time you are having, between Cats & KH’s, I would definitely phone the lawyer, your DS3 having 2 hypos due to his laziness is just not acceptable!!

    Hugs, spoons etc where needed, specially to LL, Toots & LW.

  • Thank you soo much for these great lists - I work full time so dip in and out of this thread and don't always have the time to post. The thread really helps me to try to keep our chaos under control. I am definately in this week - I have got the whole week off work so am determined to keep up with the daily lists. My sister is arriving shortly so the bathroom got a major blitz yesterday. Have cleaned the downstairs loo this morning, hoovered the landing hall and stairs and mopped the kitchen floor and done a quick dust & hoover in the lounge. Will try and do the rest of todays list in the next 30 mins! I will be truly flying! Have a great week everyone....

    Morning all

    I'm in again this week, however after a fairly unproductive time last week, the whole house is looking like a tip, so today I'm going to do a quick tidy of each room, and get back to the lists tomorrow. Will try to get some of my own list done today, as well as meal planning & washing from the weekend.

    My list
    Send cq for birthday present
    Claim car insurance cashback (after 20th feb)
    Home insurance
    Sort out suitcase of pre-pregnancy clothes

    I am concerned that it's my fault!:o She wasn't sick after Thursday and seemed keen to eat a live yogurt yesterday to try and get some good bacteria back in her gut........

    It could be that.. it is common for a temporary lactose intolerance to occur after a nasty bug.. it isn't your fault.. mummy guilt never ends does it? :(

    Jen - colds are viruses, so if that's what you're getting antibiotics won't help. Hopefully your doctor will be able to find out what's causing the problem.

    Cyclingyorkie sorry to hear about your daughter being ill again. Don't be hard on yourself; I'd have thought natural live yogurt gets your system back in order again. These bugs are horrid aren't they. How did your hob get cracked or you still working that one out?

    Hi to all the newbies! Just join in and do what you can!

    Mummyof5 are you feeling better now?

    MrsMoneypenny you had a very productive weekend - feels good doesn't it!

    Sagaris sorry to hear about your losses ((hug))

    Pigpen grrrrrr at KH; sounds so irresponsible :mad::mad::mad:

    Jojo just keep chatting to the bloke; it's lovely getting to know someone - just relax and have fun!!!!


    I'm tired and am going to resort to sleeping pills tonight :(. Feel if I only get a good night's sleep I'll feel much better again. Kids watching DVD whilst I do some housework. [FONT=&quot][/FONT]

    Morning all

    Dentist done, DS3 not impressed that he wipped out his wobbly tooth which was causing him pain due to the other tooth underneath it. It hurt a bit but is done now, he managed to eat a bacon roll from the bakers 30 minutes later :D

    Sagaris sorry to hear of your losses

    CY get well soon for DD

    Jue hope your throat improves.

    Brain fog now so hugs to all those not feeling their best and thinking of Toots and Lady Libery

    Going to do an hour's general flying now for dailies before heading out to buy school shoes.

    DS1 needs to get on here and start practising his theory.
