Shoobiedoo · 31/07/2007 10:21

Morning All!

Good luck to all you FLY ladies today - I am back to beginners baby steps as I was trying to FLY before I could walk! Yesterday DS (3 months) decided it was a no nap day and was cranky all day and only slept for 30 mins in the morning and then a bit in the buggy later, then wouldn't go to bed and when he finally fell asleep at 10, kept waking up crying 10 mins after he was put in his cot. Eventually I caved I brought him in my bed where he finally went to sleep - but needless to say, I had hardly any time for FLYing.

On a better note though, as I shuffled blearily into my kitchen this morning, I was temporarily blinded by the brilliant white light flashing the suns reflection from my lovely shiny sink!

Skribble · 31/07/2007 10:25

Morning all,

Isn't todays mission from last week?? Anyway I still have to clear bedroom from all the stuff I dumped in there yesreday, so I will make an attempt on that mission.

Today I will also be stripping.... abed that is,
water plants,
clear recycle stuff
and do more work in bedroom, but the two inflatable gym balls DH decidd he needed blown up are a pain and I have nowhere else to store them, I am going to deflate one of them if I figure out how .

ludaloo · 31/07/2007 10:40
