Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb0 -
Lil-me - I dont know how you do it, your lists are exhaustive just looking at them. I am totally in awe of the amount you have been doing. Edited to add OMG so sorry to hear of poorly bab. Fingers and toes crossed.
I have decided that the switch round of rooms this week has been an eye opener to how I can manage fit things in better. Have decided on the following:-
Monday - kitchen/dining room (as a lot can be predone when cooking/clearing up after Sunday roast)
Tuesday - Night off for either metime or kidstime
Wednesday - kids rooms
Thursday - Bathrooms
Friday - Night off for me/kiddie time
Saturday - Lounges, halls, stairs etc
Sunday - washing/baking etc
Now that doesnt actually give me a day off, but as we all know mums dont get days off, so if I want one I'll just abandon everything else

Oh no lilme - hope he is ok - my LO was a big baby and all seemed well at first then his breathing became laboured and his chest was goin up and down - it just didn't seem right. They took him to NICU and it turned out he had fluid on his lungs they were a white out (alll fluid no air pockets) and he had to be sedated and a ventilator breath for him - he was in for a week. It was awful - I was in total shock and in a daze at the time so the seriousness didn't hit home til later - anyway point i am getting to is he is one next week and a happy gorgeous little boy - so Matthew is defintely in the best place. Hope that helps a little xx0

Lil_me, fingers crossed here for your friend's baby, don't get stressed ; he's in the right place.
Forgot to say earlier, when I cleaned out the airing cupboard before I sprinked some lavender oil on the wooden shelves, it's warm in there and the smell is lovely. Chuffed with that little effort.
Definitely leaving the bathroom for tomorrow and glad pc stuff is on there too, mines running slower than a three legged donkey at the mo. MUST go to the tip tomorrow and hoover the car out after.It's my last day of the holidays tomorrow (barring the weekend) and I'm determined to finish all the stuff I took time off to do. I might need some kicks up the behind if you'd oblige?

((((lilme))) hope he's OK. It must be very scary for you all. Hope you get some good news soon xxxx
I've found you all on facebook btw0 -
big hugs lil-me for you and your friend will be in my thoughts and prayers this evening. Remember they are tough little nuts, and it may just be over-tiredness from her long labour that is contributing to it. I bet she is paniking though.
Also remember that time in hospital feels like an eternity and 2 hours won't be that long if they have him on oxygen or something like that. Plus, they never get back to you quickly.
I'm going to have to log off for the night i think as Dh is asleep on the sofa and i still have a few bits to do so we can get out the door promptly tomorrow morning,
if anyone can spare a thought for me about 9:15 am tomorrow i will be grateful.
hugs all round
Michelle, x0 -
