Weekly Flylady Thread 21st April 2008

johanne

still here with bump

Totally fed up now.

well done skintscotslass on the bungalow!!!

Didnt do any flying yesterday.. decided to travel up to the scout campsite where FIL worked/volunteered 3 days a week and adored... and do our little tribute to him as it was a nice day and we wanted the break from being stuck in liverpool (merseysides campsite is actually in west lancashire countryside). Afterwards we drove through to the local village and parked up. Went for a lovely long walk along the canal and then through the villages, comparing all the houses and dreaming of the day we can afford to move out there.. :rolleyes: Stopped off at local pub then and had a gorgeous meal was really nice

Unfortunetly as we got back into liverpool... the car started overheating so we called at MILs as it was closer than home.. and she said it had happened to her before (its her car were using while she incapacitated) and rang BIL whos a mechanic who said not to drive it as it will blow up..... he'll look at it on thursday when hes next available - so were stuck without a car again as had to leave it at hers and get SIL to drive us home

Got home and watched the match.. just no comment on that result! :mad: Then had an early night. Didnt sleep too good.. very uncomfortable now.

Today i will try and get some flying done.... but no promises as im knackered! OH is finishing off the nursery as we didnt work on it yesterday. Both really fed up now i think - but oh well... nothing we can do.....

Hugs Johanne, not long now, your bump obviously just needs a longer cooking time;) I know how you feel though, i was a week overdue with LO and i was going crazy:eek:

Johanne.. anything up to 42 is a NORMAL pregnancy.. technically you are not 'late' until you get to 42 weeks.. not that that will make you feel any better.. especially from someone who only ever got to her due date once lol.. and most were 6 weeks early!

My money saving tip which combines with summer evenings sitting outside sipping a wine with my lover, is to save your real wine corks, they look rather attractive stacked and by winter when you need to light your fire and snuggle up, they make clean, easy firelighters. Bottoms up!!

Monday I got to level one.

Yesterday I sat drinking diet coke (around six litres) and being sorry for myself.

(((hev))) Diet coke is dreadful stuff. Can you try to drink water instead? Its also amazing what you can get done in half an hour. Join us when we have a HHC xx
