wincies lovely mum indeed
swan hope you had anice leisurely shopping trip 
wendy baking sounds good. The day before I had ds2, when I was in sort of mild pre-labour, I had baking frenzy and made 3 loaves of bread, 30 scones, biscuits, shortbread and a victoria sponge LOL All came in very useful for midwives/family/visitors over next couple of days!
scatty yes, snow is fine, IF you don't have to get anywhere!
well, have made it to work and back...roads actually not to bad here. kids schools and nursery all running as normal so far (much to dd4s dissappointment!)
am feeling quite grumpy still....
Need to decide about the possible Nanny...
It will cost us significantly more, BUT I can switch to 3 days, and hopefully will be much nicer for ds2, and will help with household stuff...
BUT will it make things better enough to justify extra cost?
Or is it worth doing for next couple of years to preserve my sanity and enable me to carry on in carreer, and see it as long term investment, in that in a couple of years ds2 will be at school and childcare costs significantly less....
OR could it turn out to be worse if she turned out not to be any good, and ds2 hated her more than nursery, or if she was off sick a lot etc.... and then we would e in a WORSE situation...
oh dear...decisions, decisions...
and as swan says , she still wont be me, which is after all what I really want... for ds2 to be at home with me....but just cant afford that as option just now 
anyway...
have managed to strip my bed this morning...bedding now drying then will re-make
also need to:
reboot laundry
good clean bathroom
tidy/organise dining room (still on my list)
and I do have to do some internet Christmas shopping...but may be slooooow!
DH in improved mood though thankfully, and has offered to go to Morrisons later for me ....not sure what we'll end up (even with specific list!) but I really can't face going out again!
right, need to get on BBL
