CY- hope the scan goes okay for you OH
Pigpen - Sending vibes to all involved!
I've given in and put my heating on this morning. The house is feeling damp and chilly (joys of having an end of terrace with a north facing gable wall!) so I figured a quick blast this morning should take the chill off upstairs at leastDD has asked for her quilt to be put on her bed, so the cupboard of doom will have to be tackled tomorrow to find said quilt
Plan today:
Paid stuff!
Town - dehumidifier, wool shop, window shopping for DD's main Christmas pressie, slippers!!!
Shop trip 2 - Groceries & bits (Slippers if none sources in town!)
Shop trip 3 - Butchers for chicken & stewing meat (will get more next week when DD can help carry it since she has an INSET day)
School - for 7pm
Right now I need to get paid stuff done, transfer some money around, jump in the bath when I've found some clean clothes. Then get myself out the house by 9.30 if possible. Ideally I'd like to be done and home again by 3pm so I can make tea before DD gets home from schoolRight, now where did I put my work I did yesterday....:wave:

Just to say: my ds had the same surname as me, I agreed I would changed it when mine changed. Mine didn't ever change so I'm very glad we have the same name

Morning all, just off for a consultant appointment so will post my list when I get home. I didn't approach OH about the surname thing, he still has a few months to rethink the whole never getting married thing. We can always re-register baby with his name should he decide to marry me later on anyway.
Positive vibes to the little baby pigpen, I hope it's a successful operation and she doesn't need anymore afterwards.
