Morning Jelley

Hope everyone had a good weekend

We're never around much on a Monday so can't see me getting much done (I do get the weekly shop out of the way while I'm out though)

There's a very light covering of snow here this morning and since I've been awake it's started snowing again don't really want to have to go out there this morning but have to get some errands run.

morning all.

tiring NOMDAY for me as DD2 was up 3 x last night and DD1 up at 6.30.

Off to take DD1 to preschool in a bit. Plan to do a bit of FLYING but also rest.

Tidied my airing copboard last night. Now even FLLADY would be proud

Mission hasnt been updated so will look later.

Morning Ladies

I thought Nomday was some kind of historical date I didn't know about!

stacey and all who wished me well yesterday, I'm pleased to report the day did get better..
Once he actually got up, he tidied, hoovered , made dinner and took us all into town to buy a fish tank (I've been wanting one for ages) Its all set up, and we just have to wait a week until we can put fish in it

Mhamia glad you had a good day, sounds brilliant!

shouldbe well done you on your walk...its upsetting I know but definately nice to go

Right well I have to go to the doctors in a bit...my friend is taking my ds home with her after nursery so I will then have to go and get him.
Dd1 has been having a hard time at school recently she is missing her teacher who is on maternity leave, doesn't seem to be getting on with the replacement There are a couple of girls who are being horrible to her too I was called in to the school on Thursday, as Dd1 had drawn a HUGE black spider on the floor (the size of a dinner plate ) And she had written one of the girls names above it (well tried to...she couldn't spell it) So over the weekend we have had a long cuddle and a chat, and after an hour of tears this morning I have been in to speak with her teacher...so hopefully it will be sorted out!

Nightmare!!!

Sorry to prattle on!!

I'd better get a move on...no list at the mo, as I have to go out shortly...will be back later with one I suspect!

Hello to all. Loved the typo. Thought that cod had joined us.

Inset day today so I have a day off work and ds and dd are home with me and wanting to do lots of jobs to qualify for their pocket money.

I won't do a list as we're just going to follow our noses.

We've had hail and rain luda and we have blue skies here now. See you later.

Hello all

Doctors went well! He was very understanding and didn't try and blag me I was making them up...or that I should keep a food diary or anything I have been told in the past (which is what has put me off going to the docs TBH)
I have to go back on Thursday for blood tests, to make sure everything is ok!
He thinks it may be due to an imbalance of hormones...so I'm going to start a single hormone replacement therapy...and see if it helps (as long as the blood results come back ok) YIPPEE!!!
He was very to find I had ever been on the pill, as taking the pill whilst suffering migraines can overload the hormones and cause strokes!
I have some super strength painkillers for when the next one strikes...if it is before my next period
Feel SOOOOOOOOO much better I was getting really quite down

Just hope Dd1 is ok....I want to go and spy, to make sure she isn't sad!

Right well now off to tackle the house (eek)

Bye for now xx

Well the sun is out and I'm feeling brighter. Had a nice slow weekend so I'm feeling MUCH better today. Even went out without my stick!

Had a good hard think and decided how to rationalise my life. I found 1 thing I could happily give up so I told the chair the reasons why I felt I should pack it in. She was very supportive of my decision which was nice. She's also finding a waqy to incorporate it into another project so I can continue...Awwwh, bless her.

OK,Done list so far

DS up and washed
Dressed to shoes

Morning all Luda I am glad your DH redeemed himself after all yesterday!

DS is in a clingy modd today, so any jobs will have to be done with him in the sling...great for the exercise, not so good for the exhaustion

Ladies, I am so proud of DH and myself. We cleaned out that cupboard I was telling you about and threw away the junk, put stuff in the loft and other rightful places and we now have....A PANTRY! Yes, matching jars of dried goods, fancy kitchen equipment and things we hardly use. The shelves are clean and it looks fab. On the down side, we noticed that the previous owners (dirty morons) had painted over the distemper, so the paint is peeling and will need to be stripped off. And they had gloss painted over sticky backed plastic on the said shelves...why?

Done so far

Been to Homebase, purchased new doorbell and shed alarm
Put a load of laundry on
Cut out useful articles from House & Home type magazines and recycled the rest
Err, that's it (but I am dressed to shoes

To do
Beds
Empty dishwasher
Buy veg for dinner
Vacuum sitting room

Have a good day..

Hello again all

Glad the drs went so well luda

Ds and I are just home from the supermarket - skipped baby and toddler group this morning cos I just don't feel up to it. Have full head cold - sinus pain, sore throat, headache...the works I just want us all to be well for a while! Having a low day mood wise too - just spent the drive back from the shops in tears and can't seem to stop them...expect I'm just tired, not sleeping well atm.

Need to unpack the shopping but can't be bothered - just want to lie on the sofa under a blanket for the rest of the day!

Oh, and tort - my MSN isn't even letting me sign on so far today Hope whatever the problem is it soon passes
