Morning

Luda Happy Birthday to dd1 from my dd (and the rest of us!)
Ruby I need a haircut too. Am toying with trying new salon which has opened in our village. I'm feeling as though I need a new look but have a loyalty to my current hairdresser so prob won't brave it.

Dd has gone into school in tears again She has a spelling test today and was asking "What will you do to me if I get any spellings wrong?" as though I was going to beat her or something! I always tell her to just do her best but she gets really panicky about disappointing me

The kids have a friend each coming home after school today so I'm hoping the weather will stay dry and we can go to the park.

Today I need to play catch-up with the housework~

Tidy all bedrooms
Bag up clothes for friends/charity
Hoover and dust upstairs
Clean bathrooms
General tidy=round downstairs
Mission
find beads for dds costume
Go to PO and library
Laundry

Morning all

Thanks for the birthday wishes

She is a happy little bunny today....LOVED her pressies!

I on the other hand am struggling big time Woke up at about 5am with the mother of all headaches and as I decided to get up to take some Ibuprofen I was sick
I have obviously developed a migraine during the night and when they are particularly bad ones I get sick too

I have taken my tablets but it is a thumper of a headache
I was awake when the kids woke at about 7am and managed to do the happy clappy happy birthday bit....and smile through the annoyingly loud new laptop and squabbles!
I even managed breakfast and getting them all dressed and then the school run.
I have even managed NOT to go and suffocate my DH who is still in bed and didn't move a muscle...other than to watch DD1 open her pressies on our bed and give her a hug....then lie back down knowing full well I was not good AT ALL

Humph...I'm going over the shop now to buy something nice to scoff and I'm going to sit and watch some Jeremey Kyle and not lift a finger on the rat pit of a house!

(Who am I kidding...its such a mess its making me twitch!)

Hi i've watched JK now and feel a bit more relaxed

Not tried Forehead giraffe don't know why, as I have tried pretty much everything else! I might give that a go and see.

TMH I have been back drinking coke ....I have been having about 1 can a day....I switched to diet coke too thinking it wasn't as bad as full sugar coke and hoped I'd be ok.
TBH I think hormones are mostly to blame but I may have to give up on the coke again
I just struggle to drink anything else. I don't drink tea or coffee, squash is just so....well....squashy and if I drink just juice I get bad guts. Water is so bland I have to force it down really.
I suppose I have to weigh up what I'd rather have....migraines or coke! (I think chocolate might not be helping too )

God I just wish I had some will power!

Minor I shall go and drink some water, I had a glass earlier but I'll go and have some more just incase

thanks you lot

Hello from me to everyone
Luda sorry to hear about your migraine. They are awful! I only started getting them after I'd given birth and they now come with alrming regularity. I used to wait and see if they'd pass as I hate taking tablets, but I've learnt my lessons now and the minute I feel odd - I get Migraleve Pink tablets down my neck and try and head for a dark still place. Not easy with kids!!

Today, I am slow slow tortoise slow. Must go to be earlier - that would help. On day 7 of babysteps. My sink is waiting me - not so shiny at the moment. Fell like going for a nap instead.

We are all shattered, just getting used to being back at nursery and my ds has started swimming lessons and dd dancing lessons; suddenly there's a shcedule to adhere to!!

Hi all.

luda happy birthday DD . sorry about the migrane. I too have been suffering more since DCs (hormones too i think). No answers though .

I'm a bit dissappointed as DD did so well at bedtimes for 1 week and has played up so much past 2 nights I've had to sit outside her door again, hope its not a backwards step.

Still have a cold but have started taking vits (DCs too) as past 3 winters I've had constant colds .

To do
DS friend for tea
laundry

To do weekend
Winter clothes from loft
swimming
Ds reading
