Morning :wave:

Reporting back again for duty! Thanks to everyone who posted kind words on last weeks thread for DD2. She has cut down from 25 to 3 a day, (although she is ratty and its like trying to walk through a field of landmines with her atm) so all posi-vibes and flylady magic seem to be doing the trick :A

Had letter in from ESA they want to send me to another interview, which has caused the BD to drag me off to its kennel to chew my leg off - the last one you may recall was a nightmare. The letter specifically says not to bring children and that I need to contact them before attending the appointment to discuss childcare. :mad: So I have to hype myself up for a difficult phone call, then talk to DS nursery to see if they will have DD4, then make another difficult phone call, then try to express enough milk off for her to be left with the nursery....so stayed buried in my room, except to drive DD1 to Minor Injuries to get her arm dressed again.

Since the letter the Credit Card has taken a severe hammering on takeaways (rather than burden DD3 with cooking every meal) but it just cannot continue so I am trying to get back on the wagon, the young Skints and I made an attempt on the house yesterday once the EX had finished his visit. Tonight someone is going have to come whoopsy sticker stalking/trolley guarding/TROLL chasing so we hopefully have some nice stab & nuke ready meals to ease the pressure a bit.

Right, I should wake DD4 for a feed before I explode:D

Hugs sticks and spoons in the jar, please help yourselves;)

Do you know, I never even thought about what I was wearing. I was barefoot, with a long tshirt. Jeans came off because the button fell off so I was just wearing a usual bra. I don't think wii fit is high impact generally speaking, so you might be ok without. Not without bra, you understand :eek: but without specific sports type. Speaking as a lady of "boobage" myself

:rotfl: lady of boobage - me too:rotfl: being on daisy duty my boobage rises and falls with the baby tides, so when I exercise I have wear two bras to hold them down without over squashing them, but once I eventually stop daisy mode and have got my body to a stable weight, then I may invest in a sports bra again

Skint.. The recall may be a good thing.. They are recalling most people due to staff now being under investigation for saying unwell people are ok to work when they clearly aren't I believe there are 12 of their drs now under investigation for being negligent .. If this reassures you any that you are to be more sympathetically reviewed this time xxx

Good morning ladies. Thanks for the new thread and the list Natty.

Last week was life changing. DH is off sick for an undefined time.

DS2 is at my Mum's. he's doing 2 weeks work experience at DH's place of work. It's very hard for him without his Dad on the first day. Terrible timing.

Packed linches need to be made and I have 3 loads of wet washing to put on the line - better get on with it.

Morning all

Mumto5 continued love and support winging your way

Tis all very quiet here, I have an hour until the paid stuff. Finance Governors meeting tonight and I have all the papers still to read.

Oodles of other stuff to get done so I'm making a cuppa and getting the spreadsheets out.

HH Ironing starting here if anyone wants to keep me company. I figure if I get it over and done with, the rest of the day will be a breeze.
