I think I'm dead.. we just got in bed.. with Pixie who was simply not settling.. when Dot woke up.. she has a cold and conjunctivitis so spent the night sneezing in my face while screaming every time OH went near her.. she got in my bed and told daddy it was her bed and daddy could go away.. so he went to my side and I was sandwiched between Dot and Pixie.. one trying to feed constantly and the other hugging my head off and sneezing on me!
I didn't get much sleep.. great when I am full of cold already!

Kitchen is much more presentable, just the floor to sort out. Going to tidy the livingroom now. Stuff just keeps on breeding in this house :mad:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0

Morning!
I'm WFH today but taking "lunch" as we need some groceries. Might go to @ldi for a change!!!
I have a file that is freezing my laptop so thought I'd have a cuppa instead.
Last night I moved a few bits out of the garage (mainly bedding) that lives upstairs. My cousin said he's coming for the cotbed this week, so I'll give that a good dust tonight, and I've had a major balloon cull.
Just glancing around the major players are giant floor jigsaws (how many do we need?) cuddly toys (never get played with) and baby dollies (again how many?). So there's lots I can go at.
Following that it will be to tidy away the decorating stuff - it's piled on the counter because I can't get to the cupboardwhich leads onto my next, DH tool cabinet. Mum has said stepdad would like the cabinet (hooray) but I will need to sort the tools into stuff I'd use, and stuff I won't.
Then I'm going under the trampoline which is just empty cardboard boxes I think. I keep packaging in case the item doesn't work, but then don't get rid of it once I know it does
Lastly, I still haven't sorted the box of photo discs. I'm pretty sure all are backed up to external drive and can now be destroyed, but will check them just in case...
I need a plan to get through this in a week :eek:Bossymoo
Away with the fairies :beer:0 -
Oh no! Pigpen, get to the GP as soon as poss. You can really go downhill fast. Though they might prescribe over the phone mine never will!
Mastitis is the devil!
Sorry there's lots of sadness and illness about.
Hugs to everyone xxI'm C, Mummy to DS 29/11/2010 and DD 02/11/2013

Good morning, I started sorting the piles of stuff in the bathroom yesterday you must have been spying!!
I'm half in as usual, taking a list where I can through the week, toe dipping rather than baby steps I think
Hope you're all well and thanks for the lists xxOne day I might be more organised...........
