Morning all:j

Happy Birthday TMD:D

Got LO's test results back yesterday, apparently there is nothing wrong with her
Although they were only testing for C-Diff, E-coli etc.
Thinking it may be some kind of food intolerance. Hope so, otherwise she's going to have to have loads of tests:o
Had the first cuppa of the day, going to go tackle some dailies;)

Morning everyone.

Happy Birthday TMDin debt, hope you have a great day.

JillD- huge congrats on your 3.5lbs
As for me time, I normally read or maybe do a crossword from the big book of them DH bought me, or trawl through all the cookery books I have for inspiration. A friend gave me a womens relaxation music CD last year for my birthday and it's fab, even just putting that on I do feel less stressed.

G&B- what's the next step for your duaghter now, is she any better?

AnW'smum- be thinking of you

Dusty- hope the reflexology session is v enjoyable, i love having my feet rubbed!

Did all the ironing y/day afternoon whilst listening to radio 4.

Told DS that at 9am we are going to do his homework and then tidy his room. That'll be the morning gone.

Have a good day everyone.

No tinselfairy she is no better, i have a doctor phoning me at about 10.30am to discuss her. She is fine in herself, but 4 weeks of diarrhoea isnt right, her tummy must feel horrible. She keeps saying its sore, feeling really sorry for her:o

Does anyone here shop at ASDA? I bought fruit there 3 days ago and its a pile of crap! The apples were really weird I always buy pink lady apples, and the flesh is usually nice and white, but these were all brown, not bashed and bruised though. The melon i bought is mouldy and soft after 3 days(i've not opened it). This must be why they are so cheap, because the stuff they sell is !!!!:eek:

Level 2
[STRIKE]Dusting, even if around everything & water & wipe the poor neglected plants! Yes I can do that[/STRIKE] 19 month little miss is not bad with a duster wither
Remove clutter making sure stairs especially are safe-already done as toddler in the house

Morning all.
TMD - Happy Birthday, hope you have a good one.

AnWsmum - Hugs to you and hope you are feeling ok

GandB - Poor DD hope her tummys not too sore. As for fruit from ASDA, I have found lately that fruit and veg from most supermarkets doesn't last 5 minutes. I keep meaning to go to a farm shop but, the nearest one to me is about 10 miles away, just finding time to go every week.

Have a good day all, 7 hours till DH home!!!!
