I'm pleased with what i got done. At least my bro didn't see what the kitchen was like before he got here.!

satinshoes · 24/01/2007 16:27

all i've done all afternoon is eat Biscuits, toast, crisps etc

DD1 watching brainy baby dvd that came free with paper a few weeks ago. Seems to like it.

DD2 sleeping - feeding seems to have settled down and the pain i had the last few days seems to have disappeared (fingers crossed)

I have done some housework. Cleaned the mirrors in bedroom & bathroom and changed the spare room bedding. Sorted all washing too so it is ready to up at bedtime and be put away.

HazelNuts · 24/01/2007 20:28

Evening all.

Not had a great day here.

EHMJelly we were up at about the same time. I hope DD is feeling better soon EHM

I had Ds2 throwing up at 3:50am, I just finished sorting him out when DD thought she would do the same.
I don't know what it is as DS1 and myself are ok and we all had the same food yesterday.
So I have not done much today, I have had 2 DC wanted cuddles all day. I have only just really gone some time without them. They are sound asleep atm. Next door got DS1 from school and some bread and milk for me.

Thanks-you for the welcome back jelly EHM

I see that there has been lots of long lists with lots of Done`s next to each job.

Tort I had a table like that. It was really good but this house was just not big enough for it so I had to sell it.

I going to have a hot bath now. I sure I smell of sick.

HazelNuts · 24/01/2007 20:31

Sorry snowishere I forgot to say. I hope your DD`s are feeling better soon

I`m of anyone who has snow,

I want some snow!

I can go out and play in it then

tortoise · 24/01/2007 20:50

Oh dear HN not more sickness.I hope you dont get it again.
Yeah table is great but huge.Have found a better size one but need the money for it first and DD1's bed comes first. Only problem i have if i sell it is that i use one of the chairs as a comp chair so wont have anywhere to sit!

grouchyoscar · 24/01/2007 20:53

tortoise · 24/01/2007 21:10

I just had bath! Am abslutly frozen now!!! Shivering like mad.Cant type very well!!

HazelNuts · 24/01/2007 21:14

I hope I dont get the sick bug again aswell tort I feel so sorry for DD and DS2 as they have it again. DS2 hates being sick, it really worries him.
DS1 said there were 6 DC missing fro his class today but he did not know why though. I dont know why we keep getting this sinkness bug (if it is a bug again)

snowishere I think there are at least 4 of us hoping for better night sleeps tonight. I know I am very tired, there was no-way I want to stand to have a shower. My legs ache too much.

tort if you sell the table so your computer chair goes aswell, does that mean you wont be online so much and have to do more FLYing

HazelNuts · 24/01/2007 21:17

I wont say I have the gas fire on full tort

Mind you I dont feel very warm. The bathroom is warmer then normal, but the lounge is freezing. I cant win in this house.

bbbeeeedddddd ssoooooooonnnnnnnnnn LOL

tortoise · 24/01/2007 21:22

Lol HN! No chance!! I will not miss my MN time!
Hope all are well soon. Heating off here.Had it on for an hour since DD's went to bed and thats all. Low on gas and cash!

glitterfairy · 24/01/2007 22:18

I am so far behind ladies but hope to catch up tomorrow night and at least my sink is shiny once more tonight! See you tomorrow.
