Morning all.

No study in our home, the PC is in our dining room and so gets sorted with the rest of that day's list so just the bathroom to do for me today.
Also still need to
clean lounge window
finish off the oven
hoover landing and our bedroom
just a pile of DS's school polo tops to iron and then the ironing mountain will have been tackled

DS told me yesterday I was boring because I wasn't feeling well and not up to playing with him a great deal!
Today I hope we can have a picnic in the park and enjoy the sunshine.

Hope everyone has a great day.

It was wanted Wednesday on our local Freecycle and it looks like I may have the sewing machine I was after. Not getting too excited as the chap did not know much about it but as long as it sews in a straight line I will be happy. Want to make some cot bed duvet covers for DD2. If we ever move they have decided they want Disney princess theme. This is fine for DD1 who is in a standard bed but they dont make duvet covers for cot beds. Just got to find some Disney Princess Fabric now.:D

Right cup of tea and a browse I think. Kids running up and down garden pretending shoes shops at mo so 5 mins peace.

Oh! found some stuff to ebay too, think i will do a job lot of DD2 last years summer clothes - PIGPEN - do bundles sell better than single items??

Happy days everyone

bfn, lou.

maralum

Well, I saw the consultant. It was a woman instead of my usual monster, but she was lovely. She still did her level best to scare me into doing what she wanted, but the midwife was a star and stood by me the whole way.:j

The poor woman even offered me a completely intervention-free labour if I just agreed to do it in hospital. I told her that if I could manage without any intervention whatsoever, I'd certainly be fine doing it at home. :rotfl:

AnW'sMum

well done maralum

It just shows how different professionals can be, my midwife asked why I wasn't having a home birth with our DS and TBH I/We assumed I would go into hospital. In the event I went in at 6am and we were coming home at 1pm in time for lunch! The best bit was they got to do all the clearing up at the hospital :rotfl:

nicki_2

Slight change to my plans again :rotfl: I've just been through all of DD's toyboxes in her room with her to make room for her birthday pressies - only took 2 hours including speaking to my mum on the phone twice Now EVERYTHING is away unless it's broken and repairable or in the wash :jHer bedding is in the machine along with some dolls clothes so they can go out on the line once I've had my lunch hour. SIL brought a new computer game down for us on Thursday and I'm determined to finish it before she does :rotfl: Unfortunately it's one where you have to set a timer and actually take notice of it otherwise you can end up doing what I did the other night and playing the game for 6 hours STRAIGHT :eek:

Right, off to check a couple more threads and then I'm going back on that game :rotfl:With a timer...honest

embb

Hmmmmmmmm what did I put on my list, and did I sound like I was gonna do it?

Oh dear! :rotfl: Mind you I have done my living room floor with a cloth and soapy water on my hands and knees so I could put my new rug down AND I went to Aldi to get it, AND I've started trying to put together a new DVD case thing, so I've done something *sigh*

Have just re-jigged DH wardrobe resulting in 20+ hangers to be disposed off. Boxed up some board games so all his winter sweaters are now folded at top of this wardrobe.

Also sorted out wardrobe in playroom. Put the clothes mum left here last time she visited in a suitcase in the bottom. Nothing much to show for it but a lot more organised.

Littles nagging to go to the park but dont know if I can face the groups of teenagers, standing in line to go on the swings - really, really dont fancy it. May try to tempt them with the paddling pool again (and the apple juice lollies I made earlier ).

Maralum - good news about the home birth. Hope everything goes well and well done to you for standing up to them :T :T :T

lil_me

Maralum, good news about the home birth. My boys were both Csections unfortunately. You're due on my neices birthday

Thanks to peeps for the hugs, after no sleep at all last night have appointment with nurse practitioner today (no GP appointments available) so will see how that goes. Must find more moisturiser, used a full tube on my nose so far, just shows how much I am blowing it. Good news is Holly's cough has stopped so have cancelled appointment for her at vets.

Pigpen well done, Super Flylady Award definately goes to you this week, if you lived local to me would have took the DW off your hands in a shot, I could really do with one but having to buy new fridge freezer first as mines starting to play up fridge isn't keeping things cold and door seal on freezer on it's way out.

PCs dusted (hate todays as I have 3 areas to do plus clean the 2 laptops) desks tidy, still needs vacuuming up there but need vacuum cleaner downstairs first. Bathrooms done apart from loo brush which is soaking in bleach. Have been gutting the sitting room as somehow from Monday it's a bomb site! Think me neglecting keeping on top of it feeling ill, kids dumping rubbish everywhere especially from Easter treats etc, chocolate finger marks on doors, windows furniture etc it's shocking how quickly it can go bad. Anyways half way through that but DP has come down and plonked himself on the other sofa I want to move so will finish after appointment (20 minutes time so will have to drive over there soon)

Best go pack the Ebay stuff I need to post while I am out. Keep up the good work everyone.
