Evening all. Not got much done today. Went to a friends this morn! Tonight i have started back on the running. DS2 came with me on his bike and i took mickey too! Gave him a good walk. Shattered now but hope to keep it up better this time.
My tooth is really hurting tonight. Will try and force myself into the dentists tomorrow morn.
Thanks for the support Jas. I am very lucky with my team and treatment, they seem to put a lot of things people say on here to shame. They have been a real life line enabling us to function as a family. The boys have no idea and that is just the way it should be
I hate insurance time.
I am changing our tesco vouchers into days out ones.
TMH - Everything you've said about your mh team sounds really positive. I\msure you will be abe t come up with a plan you are comfrtable with, and now youknow what to look out for wrt early symptoms, even if you do relapse, it won't be as bad because you will get treatment sooner. I hope it goes ok tomorrow.
I hope you get a proper rest once dh gts in GO
I didn't do any insurane hunting...a job for later, but everything else is done
I am feeling a bit off - I suppose it is just the thought of coming off my medication for the depression. I see the consultant tomorrow and we are going to draw up a plan.
I feel so much better, I am just a bit woprried about regression, espeically with all that is going on.
I am doing home made pizza for the boys tea and DH is on his way home.
Mission done Ironing done Some clothes are in soak. DS2 is refusing to wear a bib at the moment and it was spag bol for lunch - hmmm
I need to pot up my hanging baskets and change the compost in a couple of pots tonight and then put the ironing away, but that is about it

Bewilderbeast A big thank you for sponsoring me . I managed a 4.2 mile run last night, which means hopefully I'll be able to run the Race for Life circuit without having to stop to walk Thank you your donation means a lot
Well so far I have done washing, folded clothes and ironed a basket full....I'm well and truly fed up with laundry now!
GO Take it easy woman. You are not superwoman - OK well you are compaired to the rest of us. Your list always puts me to shame as does all your work with Ed.
Going downhill fast I'll not go to prop making this afternoon.
I've made lunch, hung the washing out, brought the yard's green bins in, surveyed the seedlings (They are ready to plant on)and done general potterring
I have to rest or I'll be hopeless for the rest of the day.
GEM Mine have both been terrible sleepers and nappers so I also dropped the day time naps at around 2. I used to have to push DS round the block in his buggy to get him to nap during the day (then leg it back home before he woke up).
GS take it easy girl. can you sit in the sun a bit (do you have sun?)
I am going to try and do missions this week. I seem to have lost my MOJO recently (perhaps its under the bed ).
Gem I stopped all daytime napping for ds at about 20 months He would sleep in the afternon and then be up til 10 otherwise. Now he's in bed at 7 and asleep straight away DD1 had a nap until after she turned 3 though....lovely
Sorry you are feeling limp today Grouchy but lol at "I'm resting", followed by a huge list of stuff you've done! I need a rest after reading it!
Bianca - Yay for diriving. EHM is due back this evening I think.

gem my eldest son was napping, albeit once every ten days, right up until he started school at 4 1/2! DS2 is 3 next month and if he doesn't have an afternoon nap he wakes up in the night, always at 9.25pm-9.40pm.
I am determined to get back into flyinh.
DS2 is watching Underground Ernie (only way to get things done) and I will crack on.
Done All the washing. put clothes on everyone's bed and sorted. Had breakfast.
ToDo Fold up bedding in drier and put in airing cupboard. Put away all clothes on bed. Empty and refill dishwasher. Clear draining board. plan tea for everyone. Change animals water. Tidy toys away in lounge. Go in loft for storage (might not do that as scared of getting stuck up ther. ) Hoover downstairs. etc etc etc
morning all hope all is well had probs with internet connection so couldnt get on all weekend. haent read the weekend thread
Gem my dd is starting to drop her nap now, will only have it if we're out and she in buggy. she's only just 2.
just had the plumber out to fix the bath/shower and guess what- they sent the wrong person he cant touch it cos flats still under guarantee!! fgs you'd think the HA would know that before sending him out. so now have to wait for the other company to phone and arrange a time to come out and could be another couple of days.
its sunny here but cloudy and a little windy. am hoping for the weather to get nice for the weekend as i bought a new tent i want to test out!!
today i need to
tidy done hoover done wash up S&s bathroom done load washer done sort dry washing iron dust done mission
Gem - When I was pregnant with DD2 the only way I could get DD1 to sleep was to put Neighbours on (v boring) and let her cuddle me. She would then fall asleep on the sofa. Still does that now if she's coming down with something.
I don't really know what to do - he has ALWAYS gone to bed at 7pm without fail but now he lies awake for an hour until about 8pm just chatting away to himself and he is getting up earlier and earlier each morning?
I don't really want to drop the nap being 18 weeks pregnant! (really need that quiet time to get some rest )
Gem Thanks for the link. How old is DS. DS1 didnt drop his afternoon nap until he was 2.9 and ds2 is 2 next month and still has a 2 hour nap. I hated the time when DS1 dropped it he was so groucy by tea time
FGS Have you tried Aveno. I use it on DS1s exema
We are off to messy toddlers this morning and then back for lunch and DS1 to preschool and then I need to find someone to look after the boys whilst I am at the consultants tomorrow.
I have done the mourning routine. Had to pop the TD on as it is pouring down
Morning Gem, thanks for the thread. Enjoy your day today
FGS hope you and dd managed to get some sleep and she's a bit more comfortable today x
Managed to go to SiLs yesterday and even drove. Terrible traffic jam on the way home which set me off in a panic for a while but thankfully dh knew a way round it.
Dh has his annual inspection for work today (always stressful, although the inspector chap is v nice), we'll all be relieved when it's over. I'm off to work so no FLYing again today.
