Laundry is all dry, DD and my tea is on (pasta again ) and I still haven't heard from OH. Just hope his navigation in the air is better than on foot otherwise they could be somewhere near Germany by now :rotfl: Oh well, I think the pasta is cooked so I better go and see.....:wave:

Went shopping and got a table cloth - yay!! ended up getting a black fabric one from asda for a fiver!!!!

Where abouts in Asda did you find the tablecloths? I looked all over our local one and couldn't find any other than the paper/party ones :rolleyes:

Our asda is one of those big superstore walmart ones and they've got a separate section upstairs for the clothes and household stuff. It was by the dinner services and they had white, cream, brown, and red!!! HTH Em

oooh you've all been so busy again, well other than pigpen

Just got home from work, and I point blank refuse to work tonight to fix the website problem, though I do know what's causing it now. Thankfully my boss agreed to giving me time off in lieu for it, so that's ok.

I was hoping not to have to go to the post office tomorrow, but no, another book has sold on amazon, so back to the post office I go, which is typical cos I said to the woman today that I wouldn't see her tomorrow ! Oh well, at the end of the day it's all money in the bank.

haven't got as much done as i would have liked. I went to the ASDA with my sister on the way home from the dress fitting and we got some food for the rest of the family. There is a slight improvement at the hospital but nothing to get excited about yet.


Will see how i get on once Charlie's in bed, but i have a headache and i am shattered. Didn't even get the SC on this morning as i didn't wake till 8, so i will have to cook tonight. :rolleyes:

Off to finish watching home and away and do the before bedtime routine with the baby.

Will catch up with the thread in a bit.

Well I've done diddly squat yesterday and today Well, apart from the dailies which have to be done of course The kicks, pushes, shoves nearly got me going but then the impulse went again. Sorry Lil-me I'll try harder tomorrow

Haven't you all been busy though. Well done to the newbies as you've done much more than me

:love: CONGRATULATIONS TO RACH I love the ring you've both got great taste

Hiya, lots of crossed out lists, it's a lovely sight!
I've just put the cooker back together after it's day long soak in the bath, it's not quite sparkly yet but I reckon it'll be close enough if I do it again in a fortnight. I DO like this cleaning that I don't have to present for, if only it all happened like that!

Well I've got a day off work tomorrow and I'm grinning like a chimp this evening. I might post my list tomorrow, just to keep me on track but a lot of it is out and abouting - stuff I never get round to on the weekend. Some of it depends on how much is left in the bank and the weather. Hmm maybe I need a plan A, plan B and a plan C..

Going to make a start on today's list now but will catch up with the evenings goings-on later.

Well done to all of us flybabies! So many crossed off lists - it's nice to know we're all doing so well. :j

To all of us who haven't crossed off lists today - chill! It's good to sit down, relax and appreciate the rest. The lists will still be there next week.

I was given a champneys gift set for my birthday and have just soaked myself silly in citrus-scented deliciousness! I now feel much revived after my hard day's work and am having a hard time speaking/typing modern english as I spent my bath catching up on reading Jane Eyre. Phwoar for Mr Rochester! I love a good bad boy. Especially when he's rich. :rotfl:

You do make me laugh AnW's mum, we'll see how well I'm doing once this baby arrives! I'll be lucky if I manage to get dressed if my last one was anything to go by...and I always smelt very slightly of 'off' cheese - one of the hidden joys of posseting. :eek: How do they manage to get it on the one part of your outfit you can't see? Tiny, smelly evil geniuses. :rotfl:

I treated myself today - naughty Mara - I've ordered two bib-style Betty Boop aprons from ebay with the proceeds of some of our sales. I can't wait until they get here - remember, I haven't been out in nearly nine months, so aprons are exciting at the moment. I'm also the proud owner of a pair of rubber gloves now - pink ones!

I haven't really got anything else to say, I'm just feeling bubbly and chatty from my bath. So please excuse me if I've just rambled on about !!!!!!!

Kiwi, wish you the best of luck tomorrow, runway is clear for take off!
Maralum your bath sounds lovely, going to have one myself
Verynewmoneysaver hope you are feeling better soon
Aimee see you Thursday have a safe journey
Pigpen, hope your motivation is found by the morning
tick hope the fingers better!
torianut hope you are feeling better
Michelle pleased to hear there is an improvement, even if only small it all matters
Everyone who has done so well, especially the newbies, really proud of you all

Well switching PC off mean't I got the list done, then I went OTT and decided to do the garden, huge lawn cut which was seriously in need but will need doing again at lower level. Did 45 mins study before came upstairs, DS1 in bath now, DS2 been in and ready for bed. Have the washing up to do then it's study time again! (after my soak in the bath, my back is really hurting from garden stuff)

Tomorrows tasks are up for anyone who wants to have a go, take or leave as you please of course. In my opinion nothing beats fresh bed linen so have put that as Level 1 this time.

I have a Reflexology session booked in the morning so don't know if I'll get chance to post before lunch so good luck everyone
