Yay DH just got home in time to do DS3's second story. DS2 in bed with bits of banana skin taped to him. DS1 in the bath and then banana skin for him and then I can just clean the bath and I'm done. I never dread bathroom cleaning anymore as it is never horrendous with the s&s.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0

Just used the nebuliser again. Voice is actually coming back and I'm not coughing 1000 times a day! Got a team meeting tomorrow, although doc wasn't too happy about me going. My colleague (only other Welsh employee besides me (I started October and she started this month) offered to drive us to Bristol (nearest central - ish location for the team) and then I can just sit and listen, and only contribute if I have to. I told her I'm going to take the nebuliser with me though as I'm supposed to be using it four times a day.
Probably won't get much flying done tomorrow during the day, but if I'm not shattered when I get back, I'm going to do a bit in the den, as it's not been touched for weeks. You're really motivating me, girls. Thank you again!

Poor Mudbath - I thought it was me that did things like that! Hope you're not too sore.
Jammygal - hugs to all your invalids, don't succumb yourself! Hope everyone else has managed to settle their little poorlies so they can have a bit of "me time".

Evening all, no flying done again yesterday or today (I've not even looked at todays list:o) I think all these early mornings are catching up with me. Roll on Sat when I switch to overnight shift, I get a lovely long lie in.
Today I worked, walked the dog, had a banana & went to bed.
I woke up at 7, cooked some scrambled eggs & beans on toast & I'm now watching Masterchef, then I'm going back to bed.
I've just remembered that I'm supposed to be listing my junk on eBay, but it's too late now, can't be a rsed! It will all go back under the bed until next 1/2 price day no doubt!
Right, I'm going to watch the rest of Masterchef in bed. Night all

I haven't listed as much as I would have liked but for lots of things you are only saving a small amount with 1/2 price listing so I'm going to continue doing a few bits every week for ever unil I can find no more to sell.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Top front for mine too.. as you look at them it is the one on the left. The one next to it came out last week and a bottom one came out boxing day.. I told her she is turning back into a baby lol she didn't have any teeth at all until she was a year old!
92 things turbolisted.. just sent DD1 to make me a cuppa before I die of boredom!!
8 more and I'm calling it a day and uploading them.. but then I have to list my sisters remaining stuff and my college tutors stuff too!! ..

I know about bowen!
Have spoken to a therapist (he helps on my Plagio site) and people who have used it for Tortecollis, stiff neck muscles in babies. it can get rid of it in 4 sessions! The babies (usually between 4-8months) who have been treated were very relaxed during it and a bit frisky the next day. One mother had it for her back and again after a few sessions was wonderful. more gentler than physio, and you can use it alongside physio very well.
I also know a few 'hemi's' who have used bowen. Again, great results. It's very gentle and touchy feely and I was skeptical at first, but its seems to work.
OH! Toby, a horse (utterly lovely horsey) had a pelvis out so was un-ridable (something to do with his back). and in a lot of pain. The back man had been out a few times but no luck. A Bowen horse therapist came out eventually and after one session he was back to his old self! Has had no problems with his back since.
I know a guy in Glasgow if that's any help to you, or google it for a list of practitioners.
Whats it for if you don't mind me being nosey.0
