    hurrah hurrah I knew there would eventually come a day when I was first up - because - my waters broke 3am so I have been awake most of the night, couple of contractions but nothing major, but this is what happened with my daughter and when things did start boy did they start!!! And it was only a couple of hours after that.

    So the plan is get kids up and drop DS off at school (only his second day bless him, thank god we got day 1 over), am meeting my friend there she will take DD home and will collect DS from school (her son in his class) and then keep them both for the duration. All feels very calm!

    Will let you know what happanes. lil_me is on the emial list though of course with everything going on I dont expect you to be around as much!

    Jill :D:D - I'll be in and out all day now waiting for an update :rotfl:

    Not much planned for today, slow walk (sore ankle still), laundry and hoover/tidy/dust/27 fling boogie as it's bin day tomorrow. ;) My hands are still sore in that they're blistered and red but they're still better than they were :D

    Right, I best go and sort out tea, coats & stuff for school, and I might even put some more music on my MP3 player as I'm now singing all the songs that are currently on it in my sleep which is not good :rotfl::rotfl: Laters :wave:
    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!

    Oh good luck Jill.sport-smiley-001.gif
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Honestly Jill.. anything to get in a first post.. I'd rather just set an early alarm!!! I hope goes smoothly for you.. and I'm here all day anyway so it won't make much difference to me! I'll PM you my email.. in case Lil_me isn't around if you wish? Other than school runs I'm in all day.. I'll just fall off my stepladder and run down the stairs at breakneck speed every time I get an email!!
