Thanks LJD1, I hope you can get some relief from the pain. I am not going to take any more strong pain killers until after I've collected the dog and then I can reclaim my sofa and curl up for a while. I have had a hot water bottle on my back, it helps a little. I think its best to use ice but its so cold here anyway I can't bear the thought of cold on my back.:grouphug:

Managed to get most things done so really happy, things didn't take too long as most of list is little jobs and made a start last night.

Have decided not to move now as things are just going from bad to worst with it - is someone trying to tell us something? Have had a real rotten run of luck this last year and half, expect having DS but nearly lost him 3 times, if I wrote in all down no one would believe me so the stress of moving is just something neither of us need. Plus DH is just being made a director at work so is under so much stress there. Have decided to use some savings to do the house just how I want it so have my interior design hat on today. Been to a local wonderful shop to look what hes got, brought a huge mirror for bedroom and going back tomorrow to look at what furniture hes brought in for me so really looking forward to that.

Anyway, am waffling, big hugs to those not well esp. LJD1 and poohbear - feel better soon. Also big hugs to those with poorly doggies. Xx
Edit when baby wakes up, will try and get to shop for milk if i can move buggy in this wind

Well - I think I need to admit defeat and finally sign up to this Flylady malarky!

I had big plans for housework today but not achieved as much as I wanted. Perhaps if I join up and have group support and mutual motivation it might help.

I've started on the living room and managed to hoover up (under furniture too, so I'm doing the levels all higgledly-piggledy!) :rolleyes: I deserve extra brownie points as I'm seven months pregnant and have to take it easy between tasks!

I've also done the stairs and wiped around surfaces. I'll start the programme in earnest tomorrow. (Who was it that said procrastination is the thief of time?)

I still have 28 items which need more detail adding but I need to go and post ebay parcels (OH has items finishing today... looks like it could be a fortnight spent in the post office at this rate :rotfl: ) and my eyes are starting to blur. I'm still shattered so I think a really early night is called for again...but it will have to be 10pm as I want to watch CSI but I'll get ready for bed and then curl up on the couch at 9pm for a change

Right, off to switch the heater/fire off then to the post office and then pick DD up from school and then I best put tea on ... really need to check with OH what time he thinks he'll be in tonight since he's getting the train :rolleyes:

Oh well, catch you all later :wave:

Second day and managed level one and a quick tidy round in the living room. Hubby was at home so we had a big tidy/clear/fling in each of the kids bedrooms. Bedrooms look brill now ,but i'll sleep tonight lol. Cleared the hall and stairs as they mostly had toys lying around.
So not quite level 2, but I am well pleased with what we acheived.

Ok, not looking too bad apart from the fact the hoover doesn't seem to have seen the light of day today yet...... oh, well, I'll get there.... I got a little side tracked this morning as ds has been leant Cars on DVD so we watched that. I was cleaning as well, did the dusting while watching
Boston and Denise - hope you're doggies are ok
Poohbear and LJD1 - take it steady, don't try to do too much!
Oh, grannynise, that wasn't the sort of start to the day you needed! Sounds like my disaster of a day yesterday;)
:T You've all been really busy today and although I've done quite a bit of the list feel a bit like I am having a can't be bothered kinda day. never mind there's always tomorrow
