Waves to everyone. Well done on the blue line JKS. well here's one slattern who is not aiming for the blue line, but can I sit on the knackered sofa. Doc says I have a kind of dermatitis that is difficult to treat ( can never have anything easy) not contagious, just bloody annoying. So no make up, no shower gel, no bio washing stuff, but as much greasy, greasy cream as you can take.
PAH!

Wasting 'tis something called cetaban. I did buy my own organic nicer one from barefoot botanicals but am told by doc do not use. But am not happy with paraffin based cream with parabens in. I will grill a few aromatherapy friends to find out what I could use that might be anti fungal ( am apparently allergic to some weird invisible skin fungi). am told its like cradle cap.

Look like Yoda on a bad day. Not all glowing and radiant as I would want to be.

I have to do eyelash hiegene too
Alice -will look for baby bottom butter sounds good.

wasting use that finger cream, now.

Mini - that dermatitis sounds like a bugger :(

Am sat on the sofa with a blanket & laptop while one boy sleeps & another watches a film:)

Doc has prescribed one to go on eyelids, so am off to pick that up. Was wondering whether a T tree solution might work.

T tree is used for athletes foot which is fungal isn't it, so I'd have thought so. I wouldn't want to use it near the eyes though.

I must report that I think when I though we had a dog poo the other day it may have been a cat. I just watched one poop near the hedge and it looked like it had been there before when I went to clean it up.
So I'll be spreading the cat-repellent everywhere, again, and fillin the water-pistol.

It doesn't appear to have visited the veg patch though AND...

After months of waiting, there's a courgette!

So that's a break even on the luck so far today.

Yey for courgette Wasting! Am still waiting on anything from my tomatoes & sunflowers!

DS2 just had a yucky nappy so assuming he has the bug too.

Better find me a man quick so I can help keep the slattern babies coming

Forgot to tell you about ds' hair disaster yesterday. I (stupidly) said in front of H it needed cutting and so h decided to take the clippers to him. Looked fecking awful, some bits bald, some bits short, some long . My friend came round on sun night to sort it but the only way to get it semi even was to give him a no1 all over

Had my friend's ds here today so have mostly just provided food

Freak - a friend of mine's DH did that to her DS the other week, it did look awful but is recovering quickly. I gave DS2 a 'monk's' haircut according to DH and it was a bit high up his forehead! but better than in his eyes and he hates the barbers.
