Johanne, I'm so sorry, will be thinking of you all xx

Pigpen, sorry to hear of your loss also, I drove past people going to a funeral today and when I was driving past I seen many, talking over 30, people I knew. I felt poorly all the way home as I knew it would have been someone I knew, I did, someone I knew years ago, bit of a shock actually as he's only the same age as me.

Nectar - yes Debenhams have pulled out, many others are aswell. I've got about £100 worth sat on the card and thinking I should use them sooner rather than later as there will be nowhere to use them. They sent 'new cards' when many pulled out because of the 'false advertising' on the old cards.

Michelle, sounds like you're nesting, blimey, as if you're not bad enough for not resting already.

:rotfl: It's just started raining and DP is outside cleaning my car out :rotfl: shame. Sorry bit annoyed with him, he's doing it because he's going away. he'd planned to be away on Sunday but is now going even further. Stockport. Now I wouldn't mind but if I even suggested going that far (well over 300 miles both ways) for a family day out he'd say it was too far, but another matter when he's taking friends and a friends son etc. He also said 'oh you fill the car up and I'll just top it back up' to save him going to the petrol station on the way on Sunday, firstly why should I go and do it when I don't need to go anywhere, I was annoyed that this morning I went to use the car and he'd used what I'd put in yesterday without refilling it so I spluttered to the petrol station and as was then pointed out that unlike him I don't have the money to fill the car up!!!

Right flying, erm, not done much. Collected the compost bin this morning, DS really happy, just have to find out how to use it now, what can go in and what can't etc. We have years I think worth of grass clippings the owner and the neighbours behind (cheeky swines) have dumped behind the little kids shed, which I am hoping can go in as it's starting to smell in the shed because of it and DS uses that shed all the time. I've also sorted some of his strawberry plants, got DP to put holes in his potato pots etc. I've done a wash load (**** that means it's getting rained on, oh well never mind!) DSs didn't wet the bed last night so their sheets can wait as were only off on Wednesday.

I need to go and attack the boys rooms with a duster, then vacuum them, seeing as rain has stopped play in the garden I may aswell do it now, well ok after a mooch through the internet, check online banking etc.

Oh oh oh I forgot, I've change my weigh day to Thursday as I think that's when you lot are doing it. FINALLY I have lost that smidge (ok 2lb plus the 4lb I put back on) and my weight is now under the next stone, wooohhooooo I thought it would never come off. Put it this way since I took ill about 7 years ago I've never seen that number on the scales!!! Hence a little excited......

Have 10 minutes with dd doing her reading/writing comprehension go over what we have been doing all week

Spend 5 minutes going over DS#2's words
Don't want to spend too long on this as its Friday, so i only do a little just to make sure they have taken most in.#

I may take them for a bike ride, see if my dad will have Jack for an hour (don't really want to take him out with him having his ears done) but the others are in need of some fresh air.

Hugs to you and your family Johanne. Don't forget to take some time to think of yourself too.

pigpen :j :j Well done on the job. It will be good for you to mix with grown up people after so long at home with the kiddies.


I hope you are feeling better soon chunky

I have discovered Stardrops at last after looking for about a year and now I can't stop cleaning. I am doing living room now as all the bits I wipe over every week are now changing colour and my microfibre cloth is black!! You should see the colour of the water in my sink after just wiping two surfaces. It also makes things easy to wipe, no scrubbing!! Much better for my tennis elbow. So can't stop.... off to clean more!! I am even typing in my cleaning gloves!


Well done on the weight loss lil_me!

Tiami whats the magnesium for?:o
also can anyone suggest a supplement for PMS???

Magnesium is for PMS! :j I take wellwoman original (asda at £6.50 for 30) which has Evening Primrose, starflower oils, iron and 80%RDA magnesium. It takes a week to kick in. For me it helps with PMS, the morning sickness symptoms I get during it and the mood swings. It's also changed my cycle from 7 days to about 3-4 light days. Seems to work well with the coil.

I started on one that was very high magnesium, but asda stopped selling it, so switched to the wellwoman one.

Don't get the magnesium tablets that morrisons sell, they are horrid! Leave a taste in your mouth all day :eek:
