pp that dress is gorgeous are you going somewhere special to wear it ?Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task. William James0

And they didn't have that one in my size
But, I do have a couple of weeks, and a trip to debenhams to make :T0 -
Ooh, both those dresses are gorgeous! Good luck with the dress hunt Tia.
I've done everything I can to distract me from thinking about what's going on with this baby being born. My mother is a mine of no information whatsoever despite having spoken to my brother 3 times today. I think I'm going to retire to my leurrrvly (enough 'rrrrr's lil_me?) new bedding with a hot chocolate and a book.
I'll be back tomorrow for more of the same; always jobs to do.

Thanks to all on here, since lurking on this thread over the past few months, my housework has moved to a higher level. Have always had a day for housework each week (most weeks anyway) but never seemed to have time for those extra tasks, the one's you never have time to do. Soooo since reading here I have - utilising no more time I might add:-
cleaned my pan drawer under the cooker- Yuk!:eek:
vacced under my DS bed- not as bad as I thought
oven
cupboards
skirting boards etc..
DD bookcase
the list goes on. Anyway thanks again for the inspiration. Kitty.:TLBM 17th April 2007:j

me too JJ. you can get halter bra's and the ones with multi-way straps, the body thingy has it. I tried a few halter tops and kinda just squishes them up, but that dress looks better fitted.
The only time I have ever worn a halter top was when I was 18 and my mate and I would go to the snooker/pool hall once a week. Was a special halter top, and a wonderbra, and guess what? we were crap at pool but somehow... usually won... :rotfl:Oh to be young and hot again! :A0 -
I wear my usual bra.. a lovely after eden number..
(hunts figleaves)
this here one..
nice.. comfy.. and makes the most of the things we have which we don't mind sharing!...
The dress looks amazing on!
My other fave bra..

Hello lovely ladies,
Havent read all 10 pages of posts that I'm behind and not sure where the weeks gone but I've been doing Tuesday today
Tuesday Living Room, Hall and Stairs
[strike]Vacuum floors and sofas[/strike] - Both living rooms done
[strike]Dusting, even if around everything[/strike] - both living rooms
[strike]Remove clutter making sure stairs especially are safe[/strike] - all done and stairs wiped clean
[strike]Clean TV, other electricals and cabinets[/strike] - done in both rooms
[strike]Wipe light switches and banister[/strike] - done
[strike]Clean any other glass like mirrors etc[/strike] - quick dust was fine
[strike]Tidy shoes, coats and bags[/strike] - all ok
[strike]Vacuum under furniture[/strike] - main living room done, other can wait as not used very often!
Extra Mission:
Pick one or more of the following tasks –- [strike]Clear one hotspot, or just spend at least 5 minutes tackling it[/strike] - sideboard in D/Rm
- Card list - suggested by serena - make a list of who you have received cards from, their addresses and put it somewhere safe! - cards in a pile ready to do
- [strike]Clear one shelf, dust and replace items after giving them a wipe over[/strike] - in kitchen
- Clean a window, only need to do one but if you manage more then
well done
- [strike]Using the idea Shirley suggested, get yourself a bag or box, go around collecting things that are not in the place they should be, then put them back where they should be. You could delegate and give everyone their own misplaced things to deal with[/strike]
- all clutter and christmas gifts still lying around bagged up for each person and taken to their rooms
Plan for tomorrow
Return some jeans for DD as on wrong size hangar
Cash point for kids pocket money
Food shop - but only what I really need as on the grocery challenge this month
Roast lunch
More washing/drying /ironing
Thursdays bathroom list
Update Christmas card list from card pile
anything else I can think of
Well I hope you all ok, hope to keep up with you all tomorrow but in the mean time :grouphug: for anyone who needs one.

Poohbear - hope your leg is feeling better.
Dustykitten - i'm your twin! I didn't do any flying either!
Pigpen and tia - those dresses are both gorgeous, i can't find any dresses to fit me, if it fits on top it's too big on the waist and if it fits on the waist it doesn't come near my bust! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
I've spent the last five hours throwing up. Seriously hope i'm just overtired rather than it being a bug. At least it will shift the few extra pounds from christmas I guess xxJanuary budget
Nothing left!0 -
