    I have water!!!!!:j:j:j

    Since getting home from work and discovering that I have water again I have cleaned the bath and bathroom sink and then dirtied the bath again by getting in it. Never thought I would appreciate as much as I did tonight. The pile of dirty dishes in the kitchen can wait until tomorrow, as can everything else. I'm far too clean to get dirty again by cleaning other things.

    Great news :j

    Hi everyone
    ..... Popped to inlaws earlier to take some stuff to them. Done dailies and tided the yard and emptied aload of stuff out of the shed.

    I started spotting earlier today around 4ish its got slightly heavier since. But not as heavy as AF normally is and it has been 4 days since my period shpuld of been due. I dont have any cramping ect that i normally get before and during AF so not sure whats going on. It may all be over before it began
    ... im off to bed after my cuppa so ill catch you all in the morning hugs to all those that need /want one xxx

    Try not to worry, could be implantation bleed. I had this with both my kiddies x


    Eta just checked on said kiddies, and dd had climbed out of bed for her magnetic drawing board thingy (cheap magnadoodle) she's asleep with the "pen" still in her hand aww

    DH has made amends for my car crash birthday.

    I am wearing a beautiful Swarovsk! necklace. We don't do valentines so this has caught me completely by surprise. I'm very happy.

    He's put another layer of astonish paste on the hob and its starting to look more like it should. He's a pain in the proverbial sometimes but I love him anyway!

    Glad he has made your day

    OptoMum fingers crossed for you

    Good evening all xx

    Sorry, haven't read the thread since this morning. I had a meltdown this morning before we went out....DD has been nagging to get some wheels that clip on to shoes ............on and on and again this morning,so I took my coat off, put my bag away and said we weren't going............it's not Christmas or her birthday and she couldn't get on with the heelies she had a while back..........I sat on the floor in the downstairs loo crying..........told her to tidy her room or go out to play..........went upstairs , she is sat on the chair watching telly..........I lay on the bed crying..........shouted at her again............put some clothes away and sat in front of the telly myself!!! Decided it was a nice day and I didn't want to waste it, gave her clothes to put away and get ready to go out, but under no circumstances was she to ask for ANYTHING!!!! Day went quite well, she did ask for one of the stupid bird whistle things but we were on our way home so she took a no quite well!!!

    Sorry for rant, nearly came on this morning, but thought I might break the laptop with tears!!!

    Thanks for reading if you got this far xx

    hugs TC,
    please can i add my twopenny worth those things are a product of satan and should be banned those words were told to me by the nurse who superglued my sons head beck together after he feel off his and hit a kerbstone with his brow!!!!!!
    honestly the best thing youcan do for your daughter and her looks is to never allow her to have a pair.
    the day my sons friend came hurtling up the park to say hed had a fall and was badly hurt will live with me forever.
    i was in the kitchen washing up and saw the boy talking to DH who was washing the car he leaped over our garden wall. i guessed by then it was trouble and folllwed
    his face was a mess luckily he isnt scared as its hidden by his eyebrow but the nurse said she has seen horrific injuries caused by these. in her opinion they are worse than the proper skate shoe type heeley things.
    i wouldnt even give them to a CS i cut the straps and threw them in seperate bin bags.
    let your DD read this and see if she still wants a pair.

    toochoosey - hugs and tissues
    PenPen - congratulations to you and DH
    LW - do you need any newspaper, DD started delivering the Thursday local freebie today and we have 4 left over - yours if you want them and I'll chuck in free delivery :]
    Mumto5 - WOW what a lovely surprise

    DH is poorly yet again - I'm getting sick of typing that lol, this time its a nasty cold. But even when poorly he thinks of me - we have zero money but he went to Lidl and bought me a 99p bar of choc that I like - he's in my good books :]]
    Started to strip wallpaper in the LR - doing an hour or so a day till its done [we've had the paint and wallpaper for about a year!!] Kids can help out next week
    DD has had a "Head of Hall" award this week, will sit nicely next to the "Principles Award" she got last week - proud Mum moment.

    Flying - Hoovered up all those horrid bits of wallpaper that dry out before you get them in the bin, washed floor twice, washed up, run WM on a clean cycle
    Tomorrow - lots of flying will be done so I can do less next week :]

    Well, I didn't manage to do anything in the bedroom, however, when I got home from work I quickly went to Aldi to get a few bits and some kievs for tea, got home popped it in and I cleaned out 1 cupboard, 3 kitchen doors and the front of the cooker! It was all filthy! :) So I'm pleased.

    Does changing towels/bedding come up on the flylady list or shall I make sure I put that on my own list?
  • Well all I've achieved today is WM, TD, DW & s&s of loos. Heated up last night's sausage pasta for DD and watched 21 jump street with her - Channing Tatum :drool:

    Everything is a mess and I'm p*ssed off. But tomorrow is another day!! Goodnight all xx

    seconded.

    My friends daughter broke her arm in several places and ended up in theatre having it pinned and wired and has beautiful scars adorning her arm.. forever!!!

    Are they not totally yesterdays thing now anyway? I've not seen anyone with them for ages.

    I think my mother got DD3 some actually.. never seen them used.

    Opto.. I had spotting with all mine just after AF was due.. and usually when the next period should have been too.
