Right
Been trying to be busy this morning and get stuff done in the house. The anti procrastination challenge is helping
However - need to do my list I think to actually remember what it is that I need to do!
*Washing
*Ironing
*Post Ebay parcels
*Ring marie clare and cancel sub
*Pay gas and electric bills - got these through this morning. Not as bad as I thought but thank goodness I've been saving to pay them! Swapped over the money from ING Direct, but will wait til tomorrow I think to be sure the money has transferred before paying them.
*Do the gift list for the year and see hwat I've already got to save me money and unnecessary spending (bought DD's christmas pressie the other day)
Think that's it for now.
Hope all are well

Hi all
Well managed to send the ebay parcels today finally after work and tumble tots session (DS was an angel and actually completed a circuit of all the equipment really well for the first time since we started!! (JAN) ). Feeling well rough though - so not really been doing much. OH woke up this morning and sai d- are you sure we can afford another baby? Maanged to reassure him but realised that I have to include the loan we got from his work towards the mortgage (£22000ish) that's a 0% and taken before tax and NI from his salary which is great, but will have an effect on the income come next August.
He's started talking about cutting his hours down and doing some work elsewhere (more money) which would be great - we'll save it towards debts and then towards anything else needed and times of reduced income for me too.
Blurghhhhh - feel so ill I'm off to lie on the sofa til it's time to collect DD from nursery.

That sounds quite promising, that he's looking at ways of bringing extra money in to support your growing family. Are you getting on any better?
Sorry you're not feeling so good, if you get bored of the normal ginger ale/ginger biscuits type things, Asda do some chocolate covered ginger cracknell.....not sure it helped my morning sickness but it does taste nice!

Hi Sea.... glad OH is planning ways to help, I hope it all goes well.
Hope u feel better soon, I have fond memories of early pregnancy:rolleyes: I think I was more tired in the beginning of the preg than at the end when I worked 45 hrs a week carrying a 9lb3oz baby around:eek:
I know u know, having two kids already, but take as much rest as u need!!

I think once I'm trough the first rough bit I'll be ok (fingetrs crossed). I worked up til the end with DS and I really hve to do the same with this one - just found out that the mat benefits are VERY different up here than my lovely generous ones in London (still good, but looks like I'll be going back quicker than I would have wanted).
Feeling a little better at the mo - trying to get stuff done while I am!
