tort I've posted on your thread re: ELC Funky FootPrints.

Had bad night with dd last night so not planning on much today. Snot monster here again!!!!!!

Will be back later once we have had a morning nap(hopefully).x.x.

shouldbe · 07/06/2007 09:08

Aww EHM hope you get some rest today

I had a few jobs I wanted to get done but have now been roped into helping at the school for a couple of hours this morning so I have limited time now. Still, going and helping is a big challenge for me which I'll be pleased to take on and achieve (I think...)
Still, I would like to ~
~quick tidy up/make beds etc
~do some of the kitchen missions
~clear spare room bed
~quick run round with the hoover
~gardening/garden centre
~shopping for shoes with dd after school

shouldbe · 07/06/2007 09:21

Not great but it's a start...now have to go to the school - little bit of anxiety creeping in but not too bad so far....

shouldbe · 07/06/2007 13:23

I'm back - did my shift up at the school (helping get dds class in and out of the swimming pool)it all went well
Collected ds and took him to a little cafe for a sandwich for lunch
Then had a moment of madness and have booked to have my eyebrows waxed tomorrow morning (yikes! Does it hurt very much, does anyone know? I'm a real wimp!)...very scared now - anxiety rating is v v v high...
Still not done any FLYing and it shows - house is a tip

tortoise · 07/06/2007 13:25

Well done shouldbe. i am glad it went well.
I was planning to book an eye brow shaping appointment today for the 1st time too. Had a leaflet for local one with 50% of a 1st treatment.
No idea how much it hurts but i have waxed my own top lip and bikini line and thats bareable!

shouldbe · 07/06/2007 13:49

I could never do it myself - I'm way too sensitive to pain - I'd chicken out. I'm already trying to think of ways out of it tomorrow but will try to go through with it. The little place in our village costs £7 and friends who go there say they're good - I just hope they're sympathetic to a first-timer
Have still done sod all today

yaddayah · 07/06/2007 13:51

yay shouldbe glad it went well

i tweeze mine but

my friend has her eyebrows waxed, she said it stings for a second, i know with bikini waxing they say take a neurofen before you do it .. ???

got sidetracked so not done any of my list, but remembered have to fill some jam jars for ds's school fete

shouldbe · 07/06/2007 13:53

OMG - a nurofen before you go There's no way I'd go after being told that....getting very nervous now...hope I don't shame myself and cry/scream

yaddayah · 07/06/2007 13:54

no no no thats for bikini .. crikey shouldbe how big are your eyebrows ???

tortoise · 07/06/2007 13:57

Lol shouldbe and Yaddah. Bikini line really isn't that bad! And i doubt eye brows are either. You will be fine shouldbe
I will book mine later.

shouldbe · 07/06/2007 14:09

Phew! Thank heavens for that! My brows aren't too bad (I usually tweeze) but they could do with a professional touch. I will cry, I know it....
