just 2 ashamed big hugs Hun, don't forget your body is going through a lot so get what rest you can. Even if you leave the ironing and curl up on the sofa watching a movie you might find you drop off. Not impressed by the OH, you don't need a big child at this time.
lozzy hope you've made it back to sleep. My tiny one work to feed and do a monumental poo and let everyone know about it.
justkaren this is a new week put a line under last and perhaps just add a few of last weeks things (as it was such a good detailed one) as extras should you do the rest.
Going back to sleep and try not to over sleep come alarm time.0 -

Good morning everyone,
Thank you Dusty for this week's list. I have a quiet day today so should get my bathroom blitzed without too much trouble -- the joys of it being teeny tiny! I do need to get my tape measure out so I can price up new flooring for in there; this carpet had to go!
Ran the new dehumidifier for 3 hours last night and got at least 2 cups of water in it :j Off to give the washing on the airer a squeeze, hoping it'll be dry enough to iron today -- Thursdays loads were still damp yesterday! :eek:
Hugs to those in need xx0 -
massive hugs for you just2, really sounds like you are going through it at the moment. i hope your DH comes round and you can work your way through this. not talking is never good it doesnt resolve anythingSPC~12 ot 124

Morning
We are in again in our own way!rebeccaharris31 wrote: »Me Challenge: Bossy, bearing in mind my challenge, I'm wondering about how to report any progress. I've given myself until the end of the year to get everything shipshape
I wuold suggest dot to dotting, it means that the task is not so daunting and you should see progress fairly quickly in small steps.
J2A try writing to your DH about your worries and concerns and suggest he does the same. Sometimes getting things down on paper helps and allows you to 'speak' to the other person without interruptions.Official Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0 -
(((Hugs))) to just2.
Welcome to all newbies!
CY, you and your mum are in my thoughts and prayers.
Mumto5, glad you had such a wonderful day at the wedding (great pics!!!) but sorry it was tinged with sadness at your uncle's passing.
LW, please tell your GP about your eye problems.
Continued GWS vibes for your friend, Dusty, and (((hugs))) to you too for being such a support to her.
Posivibes for Jazee's Sick Dog.
I'm in again this week, though still working from my own lists. More paint went up on the lounge walls yesterday, and the fireplace is being fitted this morningwhile DH and I move a storage cupboard into the back porch and attempt to tidy up the utility room, aka dumping ground
The downstairs bedroom needs painting this week so that the old-but-good carpet can be refitted on Saturday. At least it is becoming easier to keep some rooms relatively dust-free, now that we have internal doors
Hope everyone has a good week.0 -
