On that note OH just rang to say hes had a phonecall to get the hospital to get there to FIL ... ASAP... I cant go cos its ICU and couldnt get there if i wanted to cos he rang while doing about 80mph towards the hospital which is otherside of liverpool .... but it doesnt sound good So BIG list will help keep me busy until i get a phonecall updating me.....

Doubt baby will be coming any day soon... midwife said stress hormones stop/slow labour so try not to have any stress in your life.... this rate will be giving birth to a one year old.... :rolleyes:

((((HUG)))) When that baby arrives I'm buying you a BOX of wine AND kidnapping it at least once a week to give you a break Hope FIL is okay, tell your OH hugs to him too.

Unfortunately the only thing the prodding did was make me get to school on time to collect tiddles.. I have accomplished a rather pretty looking blister on the bottom of my foot.. memo to me.. do not wear new trainers with no socks!!

I bought hay for bunnies and a few treats for them.. I got a bun for tiddles.. she knew I had my purse lol.. so I've spent a whole £2.50!!

I need a cuppa.. I might be all rebellious and have a cranberry and strawberry tea.. yep.. I'll do that..

THEN I'll need prodding.. say.. 1-1:30pm??? Can that be managed?? Then 1:45-2:30pm... I'll do a 3QHC (3 quarters of an hour challenge!) Then I'll have to collect the grubs.. junk food for tea as I have a meeting at 7-9pm

hello - feel exhausted already today, as it has been one and a half days worth of running already.

In bed at nearly midnight last night after DH finished messing about with the quiz he was doing. Then when alarm went off this morning and we went in to DS he had been really sick all over in his cot, and hadn't even told us. I remember last night while watching desperate housewifes i heard him coughing, and then he was saying mammy, but i didn't go in as he wasn't really fussing, and then we forgot to check up on him before bed.

So manic morning of trying to deal with the worst of it before DH left, as he also appears to have the runs again, DH tidying while i bathed DS, and the daft happorth tried to climb out of the bath, and fell landing on his head and doing a full somersault. His neck appeared to twist, and he was quiet for a little while, but seems alright now, and i have kept an eye on him all morning.

Think i had best keep him off nursery tomorrow as well if there is any hope of us getting to this wedding on Saturday.

So, no list today, just what i can when i can. Achieved so far:

• DS's cot stripped
• bedding washed x2 till it didn't smell
• WM on again with travel cot mattress and bedding cos it smells of smoke after being at my mums
• bedding on line to dry
• rang nursery to say he was ill
• rang sister to see if she could have DS while i went for dentist appointment
• bathed DS
• all had breakfast
• packed DS's bag
• travel cot got out of my car
• dropped DS at sisters house
• went to dentist
• picked DS back up, brought home, and then he's now napping in bed

so i think all in all, will see how i can get on when i can although priorities for me and DH for the day are:

• [strike]wash top i want to wear for wedding[/strike]
• wash mat jumpers to give back to A
• wash my hair
• [STRIKE]put boxes of school stuff in the garage so they are not cluttering up the living room[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]DH to pick up wedding hire suits[/STRIKE]
• DH to write some more of quiz
• [STRIKE]DH to get me some boxes of baby clothes out of loft[/STRIKE]
• disinfect the cot mattress, and soft cot toys, leave to air somewhere
• [strike]remake DS's bed properly for tonight[/strike]
• [STRIKE]bulk cook - lasagna, spag bol sauce and chilli from mince sister just gave me[/STRIKE]
• get the iron on and do a bit from the pile.
• [STRIKE]DH to clean up cat kill from outside the back door[/STRIKE]
• [strike]get washing back in off line and put line away[/strike]
• [STRIKE]put out the black bin once we have filled it with as much of the old carpet as we can fit in[/STRIKE]

plus anything else i can manage depending on how grumpy/sleepy/energetic YKWIM DS is.

No: of items flung = 2
No: of items ironed =

Michelle, x

Meter reading man left a card yesterday to say he would call back today so just blitzed the hallway so it was presentable

Opened the meter cupboard only to find the bit of old newspaper in there off one my vases slightly shredded.... (i have to store my vases in there wrapped in newspaper as dont have a kitchen cupboard tall enough for them and newspaper cuts down on having to rewash them as cupbaoards a bit dusty/mucky )

There was also a few mouse droppings! :shocked: Just what i needed.. micicles back...!!! So i cleaned it up - glad i checked now before meter man found it ... will lay a trap once meters been read!
