    Nicki.. but you're crazy too. lol..

    <--- hasn't ironed a thing in years and had dribbly babies too..

    Pixie wore her bib like a cape it was never under her chin lol

    :rotfl: I used to put my DD's plastic-backed bib over her vest but under her top/dress so that the gallons of drool she shed didn't make the skin on her chest sore but you could still see her pretty clothes. She was about 2 and a half before she stopped dribbling :o. Don't worry though, she has still turned out well and only occasionally drools, who am I kidding, she spills her dinner down her front at most meal times, just like her Dad! :D

    I'm just off to eat my lunch now I have finished work and then I will get on with some flying, honest.

    Oh boddy, I hope you're ok. Hospital stays are rubbish. Have achieved nothing at all today, apart from feeding the babies, getting rid of the high chair and shoving 2 wash loads in, 1 of which needs to be hung up. Oh and made a jelly. Truth is I fell Asleep when the babies went for a nap. I guess that's what happens when you get woken up so stupidly early! Will try and do something before the day is out! X

    My mum has had another major health scare this weekend so I am going to need to make lots of time for her in the next couple of weeks.
    Oh no, Dusty; I'm so sorry.:( Please make sure you look after you also; I've been concerned about you lately. (((HUGS))) - posivibes on their way.

    A few months ago I noticed a lump on the back of my knee, thought initially it would just go away, but after a couple of months it hadn't. I went to the doctor a month ago, who basically dismissed the lump, but said there was tenderness in the back of my knee so I've been referred to physio at the end of November. The lump is still there and now hurts, my knee has a constant dull ache. Late OH died from a soft tissue cancer, I *know* that my lump isn't cancerous, but my imagination is running away with me and it's bringing up bad memories. I've not told the doctor about late OH as I didn't want them to dismiss my fears. I've managed to get an appointment for tomorrow and I'm going to push for a biopsy. Sorry I just needed to get this out somewhere.
    (((HUGS))) It's only natural it should bring back all the memories; you push for getting it sorted out, ok? You need the peace of mind, and you also need to not develop a limp like mine!!;)

    Also been done over by someone on fleabay, paid for a coat, and they obv haven't posted it and have deleted their account!!!! Now I don't had a winter coat or the money to buy another. I'm pretty sure as they are no longer a member Paypal can't claim it back either??!!
    Now I know why I don't use fleabay.... I have an account, but only set it up in order to purchase Hoe Hin Pak Fah Yeow, aka White Flower Embrocation from a company based in Hong Kong; I used to get it in a little shop in Stony Stratford, but the owner retired and the shop has gone. I haven't used the account since! Try the "dispute" protocols anyway - you have nothing to lose, and everything to gain.

    I seem to be missing my GUAG again today - if anyone sees it, would they please box its ears and send it back home?:D Nevertheless, I shall force myself to at least do some dusting - probably put the duster-onna-stick round the light fittings and other high areas.

    Don't worry about me if I don't post tomorrow, btw; Mr LW will be wfh, and I have to go for my ultrasound scan at 11:30 tomorrow - any spare posivibes would be appreciated.;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    DW and WM on, and most of the shopping away. Time for a concentrated effort on deep cleaning the kitchen. Anyone for a HHC from 1.30?

    Boddy hope all is ok

    In that HHC I dusted the beams and walls in the kitchen, cloakroom and back hall. I also emptied and refilled the DW. Wiped the sink and some of the (visible) work top.

    This place is an overwhelming mess of monstrous proportions. *hyper-ventilates*
