Don't we all :rotfl: Since having the kids I've definitely fluctuated, but recently have lost weight and am now back to the weight I was 12 years ago :T HOWEVER, I was most definitely not this shape 12 years ago. Baby bellies r us springs to mind!!!!

Oh yes. I weigh now what I did when I got married. But most definitely in different places

Early up again. I've told the babes no chance, made a cuppa for me and a tray of snack for them, and gone back to bed. They are picnicking under DS bed, ringing his "doorbell"

Hopefully they will entertain themselves for an hour.

Cleaned out my shower drain before bed last night _pale_ oh disgusting... Left the bits soaking in bleach. My hair was all tangled in with soap scum and, just, yuk!!!

I deserve a day off!

ETA cross-posted there! Mumto5 thankyou! I have a sarong :T hope yours all turn up soon x

I remember this so well - up at the crack of dawn when they were littlies..... now DD2 comes home when it's light after a night out!

I have a pile of ironing that resembles Mt Everest to conquer - and I must succeed - we are away for mum's birthday jamboree next weekend.

Tomorrow is my midnight walk for the hospice - that came around quickly! Fairly confident that I can walk 10 miles..... it's the midnight bit I worry about!

Aunt Flo is b*******g about again - not seen hide nor hair of her for 6 weeks. Sadly my b**bs are so sore that I can barely bring myself to touch them! Oh the joys of being a woman!

Hope all are well and that everyone enjoys the weekend...

Morning

Was awake early for me this morning (normally just hit snooze repeatedly until I have to get up.

Washing hung on the line
One carrot cake put in the freezer, the other is waiting to to be iced. (I'm guessing that's what Valli means in her sig of make 2 freeze one?)

Before I go to the paid stuff I need to put another load in WM

Have a lovely day all

Morning all

Glad to see the flybabies are doing well. Hugs, sticks, spoons, vibes and coffee for all!

Some errands are being left for today, but I'll take DD to M@t@l@n after school as I need to make a delivery to a customer who lives that way. We'll have to pop into H0meb@rg@ins as well for more packed lunch stuff. We had too many other things in the basket Monday and couldn't manage to carry any more

Instead I'll run the other errands on Monday, when I'll buy a bus pass again, and go to a few places. I like running errands on a Monday, DD is out at school for an extra hour or so and it feels like I've got an extra 4 or 5 hours to do everything. Don't know how that works, but it works for me :rotfl:

Todays plan is to get the housework done while DD is at school. Biggest priority is getting the ironing pile cleared so I'll do some of that while I watch something on the TV. Then do some jobs and I'll do another hour or so's worth later while I watch something else.

If its gone it's done!

I'm back can you tell I've nothing exciting to do today

I did get my extra hour, just reading, not sleeping. But the littlies were quite good upstairs, only real distraction was DD wanting help getting dolly's trousers off as "she's weeing" :rotfl: then she needed a tissue to wipe her

I've just been reliably informed "there'th a big mathive monthter" lol so I better go investigate, suspect its just the washing machine going - beds have all been stripped.

Will pack kiddies overnight bag in a bit.

Good morning everyone. DH decluttered to work and DS decluttered to school both with packed lunches.

First job for me today is to get all of the phone calls out of the way 1)Dentist to postpone appointment until after LO is born 2)Return work call from yesterday 3) Doctor to double check appointment time for Monday.

After I have done the phone calls I will find the camera and get for sale items listed and also put the first load in wm, although it is a bit overcast this morning.

MMM I read Post (#219) about the midwife telling you to take it easy and then spent half an hour reading your listy of Things To Do. Please can all Flyladies with FlyBumps take extra special care of themselves and their FlyBumps today, and accept my very best wishes for smooth journeys and safe arrivals. (Those of us who didn't have babies also seem to have baby-bellies - how did that happen?)

Mrs Flydog is making 'settling-in progress.' At times, she can now even be in the same room as the cat, although not for long. There is a lot of black fur all over the house and my trusted groomer can't fit this pongy dog in until July 4th. I need to wash my hands every time I stroke her and she isn't relaxed enough to enjoy being groomed at the moment.

I must, absolutely must, spring clean my RoD office today in preparation for R coming to stay on Sunday, and buy replacement dog duvets as the old ones, despite being washed in biologicals, pong of Dog's pee. Happy days.

PS ETA: Bon Voyage to Dusty's DS1.
