hiya all
g&b and mumofjust2 and mudbath, I'm watching too. I think I feel a bit sad for them really. There must be a need in their lives that isn;t being met, whatever that may be, Makes me realise I am pretty lucky.

I'd agree Jill, to start with I just found it weird but the more I watch you can see there's something missing from their lives. Have I missed what happened to Harry or haven't they said. She seems the one who's the most affected by it all. I am so lucky.

Hiya Dusty
I did notice he came in clutching a fruit shoot and he said it was his second one...i'm a meanie and don't really buy then so it could just have been liquid overload.

DD tends to drink water or milk ..... but when she has juice ... her loo visits are way higher ......

I did too. I wonder how her daughter feels about the way she is.

Zed - yip, my two only usually have water and milk so I think that might be part of the problem. Thank you for your support xx

Extra tasks if you want to do more

Vacuum and wipe (if needed) sofas
Dust any areas below eye level
Level Three
Dust anything above eye level (if safe to do so)
Clear anything that shouldn't be where it is, ahem that includes that cup!
Wipe the bits next to the steps on the stairs, yours might be skirting board, edging of some sort, grab a cloth and give it a wipe
Extra Mission Tasks - as usual if you fancy tackling something else you could try one or more of these

• [strike]Check where important documents like passports, birth certificates, driving licences, medical cards are and make a note of where they are and if any need replacing, changing etc (yes I know it's repeated but lots of members were not about when it was done) [/strike]
• [strike]Spend 15 minutes sorting paperwork, dealing with anything urgent NOW[/strike]
• Wipe down window frames in these rooms (inside) clean any marks from window
  
• Clean out the vacuum cleaner, empty the bag/bucket, clean filters if they are washable MAKE SURE YOU DON'T PUT THEM BACK UNTIL THEY ARE DRY!

michelle - hope your weekend was ok, your neighbours sound lovely, glad they are looking out for you. I know what you mean about hubbes going away whilst we are pg, mine went away for 10 days when I was 36 weeks, i was h3ll.
