    Poohbear - didn't know you had FMS. I was diagonsed with it in 2001 but had symptons for 3 years, finally got diagnosed privatley after being taken into hospital due to pain and sheer exshuation (sp!)- really lost about 5 years of my life. Know just where your coming from so if you ever need to chat, PM me. I get mainly neck pain and goes between shoulder blades and into jaw too. Am so, so lucky after having my LO it seems to have sorted my hormones out and only have niggles and tiredness now (touch wood). Please don't ever be down on your own, PM me, I honestly know how bad/dark the days were for me.

    Embb - way to go on the job! Go girl, go girl.

    Tori - hooray for DS and his sleeping!!!

    Right, nothing done but I don't care! Been shopping, got some fab tie backs for my bedroom. Need to go back out later when DS wakes and:
    Visit gran
    Post cards
    Get diesel
    Drop N £60 in
    Defrost salmon
    Mums, take bag of toys

    Righty-ho must amuse myself while DS nap's. Thanks for all the lovely messages about my day out, *mwah*!!!!

    Tia - that could be a bad middle ear infection, it is called Labrinth......something fancy. DH had it and he couldn't stand without swaying, it is awful, you ought to go to Dr's.

    Forgot to mention earlier can you believe me and my DH have been dating for 10 years today! Does that make me sound old, I'm only a whipper-snapper really.

    Yeah for dress being in-stock now and me ordering it and getting a delivery date.

    boohoo for dizzyness! Woke up dizzy. I don't mean a little dizzy I mean room moving and your falling down dizzy. Drove DS1 down to the school and the car was moving as I was trying to get DS2 in his car seat. So I went back to bed, but it's still the same. Dog has missed his vet appointment, DS2 hates me because I won't do anything. Fed him soup for lunch which I ate and regretted, he turned his nose up at so has had a snickers bar, everything else makes me queasy. I don't feel sick, just being sick because I'm that dizzy. Can only think it's my glands in my throat, a load of 'ick' came out one last night.

    I need to tidy the kitchen though, dishes from yesterday and rubbish lying about. It smells.

    Tia - does it feel as though you are on a rocky boat when you try and walk? Only I had Labarynthitis about 14 years ago and that made me feel so dizzy I was sick when I moved and fell over when I tried to walk....was result of undiagnosed ear infection....hope you feel better soon

    Am very fed up - couldn't get on internet at all yesterday (Tiscali had an outage :mad:) and now the thread's so long I don;t have time to read/thank...so hope everyone is OK!

    Am not too badly behind with house, but really need to do some paper sorting and bill paying. Might be naughty and watch "Frost" on tv at 2.00pm while I file and write cheques.....will go and clean bathroom beforehand so I can feel virtuous!

    Afternoon all! I hope everyone is well and hugs to you if you're under the weather. In fact, hugs if you're feeling fine too! Last night at high school muscial on ice was really fab - I didn't think i'd enjoy it that much but it was really good and the children had a ball. Nightmare rip of mechandise though ..... grandma wanted to buy them something which is just as well as I'd said no! £12 for a programme:eek: !!!

    Anyway, on with the list. I've been working all morning so need to catch up now.

    Level One
    Clean floors in these rooms
    Level Two
    Clean baths, toilets and sinks
    Level Three
    Wipe down tiles in bathroom
    Delete 10 links in your favourites which you no longer use or don't work

    Extra tasks list, as usual choose one or more
    • Clear a hotspot, if it's bad at least spend 10 minutes on it
    • Remove anything from window sills in these rooms, clean before replacing the items (which you have of course given a wipe)
    • Clean toilet bowl inside and out, the floor in front of it aswell if you need to
    • 15 minutes paperwork filing/flinging. Deal with anything urgent now.
    • Wipe skirting boards in these rooms
    Extra things I need to do:
    - walk dog
    - go and buy stamps
    - pay cheque into bank
    - post cards to MIL and SIL
    - sort out parcel that arrived late for DSs birthday - I'm keeping it for christmas now
    - clean hot stones for work

    - make lasagne

    Anyone up for a half hour challenge?
    xx

    January budget
    Nothing left!
