Morning all

G&B - how's your face this morning?
Lil-me - hugs, hope the studying goes well today
Mudbath - how did you get on???? Is it off???? BTW bit late now but my sis had metal pins in her wirst sticking out under the plaster and they just pulled them out, she did faint but said it didn't hurt

Just off to toddler group in a min, DS is full of beans this morning, DH got up with him at 6.30 and I could hear him shouting for his playroom door to be opened (firedoors so really heavy) and hasn't stopped since! Hopefully toddlers will tire him.

Got few jobs I want to get done later, lacking in motivation already! Went to the gym last night and my legs are really sore so no bending I think for me!

Catch you later, have a good day xx Sure I'll be back at lunchtime for some HHC

Morning all.

Johanne is still waddling around - she's at the midwife today! I just keep in mind that DD was 3 days overdue when she was finally born although I went into labour the 2nd day after cleaning the house top to bottom so we're expecting the baby to arrive any time! :eek::j:D

DD is off school still this morning. Glands are still up, throat is sore, earache, temperature, snots but otherwise in fine voice as she hasn't stopped chatting since she woke up :rolleyes: She's insisting that ice-cream and jelly is magic medicine, personally I'm thinking a swift kick up the bottom would work just as well :rotfl::rotfl: Mind you she is now sitting watching Tomb Raider so I don't mind :rotfl:

Did well in the kitchen yesterday, I now have 3 food/drink cupboards, crockery & tupplerwear moved to a lower cabinet (might be a bit more inclined to reuse plates instead of adding to the washing up ), all my casserole dishes and pans now in one cupboard and the large ones for "family" sized meals put to the back and smaller ones which will do 2 or 3 servings brought forward. My slowcooker now has an enforced home on the worktop as there's no room in the cupboards where I used to keep it I only have 1 drawer and 2 cupboards to sort out, one of which is the undersink cupboard which just needs tidying up.
