    My throat is closed up. I feel rotten. Why does this happen 2 sleeps before I start my new job? I'm praying its just the beginning of a cold but that means I'll be streaming on Sunday (first day). I've taken parrots in the hope of getting sone sleep. Fingers and extracted tonsills crossed....

    DH's alarm goes off at 5.45. Maybe i should stay awake and do some flying?

    Hope you have a peaceful night with your DS Bossy.

    bossy hope ds is feeling better in the morning
    ionafan. I'm only 6 months so not putting feet up just yet. Still got decorating and sorting to do. We have been here four months now and there is still so much to do!
    yl- well done to your ds.

    I have been in school all day today, planning and setting up for next half term. I did manage to do the bedroom before we went though!

    Left to do...

    Put pictures up in kiddies bedrooms
    Shine the kitchen sink
    Empty and clean out bins

    I was tempted by the Christmas card exchange last year but didn't feel like a 'proper' flylady then. How does it work? That is probably a silly question! Do we get everyone's addresses or do we send them all to one person?

    Also, how does the secret Santa work? Sorry if I'm sounding a bit thick!

    Bossy.. I'm a little bit neurotic but .. hot tummy, tiredness/lethargy and vomiting are the 3 things DS3 complained about before his T1 diagnosis.. weight loss and thirst came later.. they do typically have sweet smelling breath.. like pear drops! .. if he has ANY of the symptoms.. A&E.. don't waste your time with GP.. hopefully it a fast bug passing by and nothing more.. but the less obvious things are worth looking out for! I don't want to make you worry more, just raise awareness xx

    Back home.. run ragged.. looking forward to a rest on Wednesday!... pretty much booked solid until then!

    Morning All

    This is turning out to be a really busy week but at least it's supposedly a stay at home day today although I've still got to deliver some letters asking for raffle prizes. Hopefully, I've got a fairly free weekend though apart from cleaning the cenotaph Sunday morning.

    I've already been up for over an hour and have been sorting the LR out a bit. I also want to wrap some more presents today so they can go in the loft out of the way.

    Bossy - hope DS is feeling better this morning and you managed to get some sleep.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Morning all.

    Hope Master Bossy is better today and you all got a good night's sleep.
    GWS Mumto5.
    Well done to your DS1, YL.
    Welcome home pigpen.

    I am not posting a "to-do" list today as I'm ashamed of continually seeing the same things on it (though in my defence I too was not feeling very well yesterday and didn't make it to choir practice) but I will post my list of achievements later. I must at least get out of the house for an hour this morning.

    (((Hugs))) spoons and sticks all round, and :wave: to CY.

    Morning all. Haven't had a chance to read back further than this page but can see that get well vibes etc are needed so they're coming your way.

    Been missing in action for last few days. Tues - day out, Weds -ironing, Thurs and today - paperwork.

    About to start the paid stuff.

    Tomorrow, need to do menu plan, clean fridge and shopping list for DH. Also decorate the front porch so kiddies know they can come here for Halloween sweeties.

    Have a great day everyone.
