Maralum, :grouphug: to you and I hope that your OH will be kind to you from now on. It sounds like he is getting stressed about the impending birth. Its good he apologised, me DH is one of those that thinks 'love is not having to say you are sorry', but in my mind it really helps to have an apology. Someone mentioned DH complaining during labour, mine still complains about how I hurt his hand squeezing it! Oldest child is now 16!:rotfl:
Lil-me and Shirley Park, thanks for advice about sorting a room into boxes. My study/playroom/spare room has had the contents of shelves piled on floor since January when friend came to fit a radiator. It doesn't work so I haven't put everything back yet. I have got some boxes organised and this afternoon when boys get home from school I am going to get them to help me to get started.

well so far today all i'v done is gone shopping come home and put it away and thats it oh and i got a load of washing done,
hubbys day off today so he said he'll do the bathroom with me later, just feel so tired my body must be in shock at me doing so much this week lol.
tea is sorted hubby bought some chip baskets this morning the ones you used to get for chicken and chips in pubs . so guess what he wants for tea,
so got chicken out but as we don't have chips that often i cheat and get chippy chips as cost wise probably not much difference as i just get a large bag for us all to share, im being good will have potatoe wedges.
anyway to got to nip out with hubby again ,hopefully i'll be backlater with a list of things i'v done.0 -
Well just had a quick hoover through. Kitchen S & S. Have been busy though. Trip to veg shop on way back from preschool. Batch of HM beef curry made and portioned up (just popped in freezer) :T . Batch of bolognaise is slow cooker now need to portion that up too
.
Made bread and pegged washing out, although had 2 brief showers since so no further forward with it drying :mad: .
Still need to S & S lounge so will do that next. Decided i will do bathroom when littles in bath later - 2 birds with one stone and all that;) .
I finally got to collect the sewing machine I requested from Freecycle - but gutted it is TOTALLY unusable. I know the bloke that donated it did it with a good heart but guess I will have to arrange a trip to the tip. He told me it was electric but the cables have been cut off right level with the machine. DH found it highly amusing saying "not everyone gives good stuff away like us - what did you expect". I guess I expected an old machine that worked, oh well guess I will have to put a thanks up on the board to him and maybe try again in a few weeks time (and hope he does not see
).
Sorry enough rambling back to the lounge.0 -

Now off to load DW, both WM's, BM and bring in and fold the dry laundry.
I have a parent governor meeting this afternoon with the school staff (all of whom I've known for YEARS lol) so hubby is collecting from school and I am going there.. fun fun fun!!!
Actually I may have to make myself presentable.. I have bark chippings down my cleavage and ice cream dribbled down my jeans that looks a little.. 'compromising' lol.. *blush* .. I may even comb my hair!! :eek:
