Lovely storage EV. Mmmm (I do love a bit of storage) .

BiancaCastafiore · 10/06/2008 14:03

Hypnotherapist has just called, she can fit me in tomorrow and Thursday mornings for a couple of sessions She seems to think I will be able to make good progress in 2 sessions but idealy need 4 so need more later on. Very expensive!

scattyspice · 10/06/2008 14:25

Go for it though Bianca. Will be well worth it if it lifts your anxiety.

Right DCs are playing. Ironing .

dylsmum1998 · 10/06/2008 14:27

Happy birthday Saga enjoy your meal out.
bianca hope the hypnotherapy works for you.
ev storage looks great

that'll do be suprised if i get that much done today

Jas · 10/06/2008 14:29

I like DD1s boxes E
We use huge builders buckets for storage here Not such nice colours, but about the same size.

Bianca - I hope you're booked in. If it even helps a little, it will be so worth it, however much it costs, and imo is an essential expense.

Well, I've moved the car, lost the front door key, doen more tidying, found the key, and managed to get ds to drink some juice.

I need to hoover now.

BiancaCastafiore · 10/06/2008 14:34

I am booked in, yes Worried about it but I'm going for it She's willing to let me pay for one session now and then owe for her the next when we're home from holiday.

Jas · 10/06/2008 14:36

Good.

Keep that positive attitude up.

tortoise · 10/06/2008 17:34

hello
I am feeling sorry for myself! Had 3 fillings done today, all on the right hand side. Now i am in pain where he put the injection in. Had some yogurt for my tea! Can't eat anything else yet because it hurts just to open my mouth. Had to sort of suck yog off the spoon lol!

I am setting up at toddler group tomorrow so i have been really good and made lemon drizzle cake for the mums! Going to make and ice biscuits for the kids too.

Hope everyone is ok.

TheMadHouse · 10/06/2008 18:23

Tort You have my EVERY SYMPATHY. I am still feeling sorry for myself too - we make a great pair. Although I am not up to the buscuits or cake

Guess what................................................. ta da THE PLUMBER HAS ARRIVED. Just after I had washed the boys in the sink with boilled water from the kettle, at least I can have a bath tonight - yipee

tortoise · 10/06/2008 18:32

Glad the plumber finally arrived.

I need to rant!

F*ing neighbour with her bonfire while i have washing out. Which she would clearly be able to see from her garden. Inconsiderate cow!

And while i was sorting that the bloody dog nicked the biscuit mix i had made! While jumping up at the work top to nick that he knocked over the juice i had squeezed out of the lemons for cakes lemon icing. Now it will have to be plan icing. Dog is driving me mad.

BiancaCastafiore · 10/06/2008 18:36

Glad the plumber arrived TMH Enjoy your bath later.

Tort how frustrating that the dog ate the mix and knocked over the lemon juice!! You're so good making cake for toddlers, I wish someone (me?) would've done that when I was at our toddler group.
Sorry your teeth still hurt Hope they feel better soon x

tortoise · 10/06/2008 18:57

I am worrying now. My next door neighbour just phoned (yes bonfire one!) to tell me that the house next to her was burgled today. They left the TV on the drive way but got away with pc and a smaller tv. Not sure what else. I felt safe here but don't right now.

dylsmum1998 · 10/06/2008 19:04

tortoise · 10/06/2008 20:41

Lol @ DD Dyls!

Cake is cooked, iced and yummy. Hurt to eat it though but well worth it!
Biscuits nearly all cooked. Need to ice them in nice brightly coloured icing and some sprinkles! (evil )

TheMadHouse · 10/06/2008 20:55

Bad Dog Micky

I have had a bath and feel a little better. I also made DH go out and get a pregnancy test (which is negative - thank god), as the last time I felt this bad I was expecting. Imposibility as I had the mirina coil fitted in November, but made me feel better.

If still feeling this off I will go to the doctors after taking the boys swimming and doing Preschool run and naps

dylsmum1998 · 10/06/2008 20:59

tort coloured icing and sprinkles! you'll have them bouncing

glad the bath made you feel a bit better TMH hope you get some rest tonight
