Afternoon all

We are back, though DS2 has been a nightmare. Then I go to change his nappy nad he is covered in pox like spots again I have spoke to the GP, who said that his first case mustg have been mild and to keep an eye on him The thing is he also has a chest infection, so could be that

I hope that it is not and is just a rash of some sort, but knowing our luck ......

I dont normally fly at he weekend, but will try and get the house spotless for Monday.
So job when DH gets in is to iron

Hi there,
I love your enumerated list Jas And remembering to have breakfast yourself, well done!
Do you use a timer Sagacious and do you ever go over? I want to remember my timer, but don't do very well.
Did all the hotspots and bathroom and kitchen and washing and then went out at 10:30 and got home at 4:30 very tired feet.
Off to read my babystep, now have Kelly's Mission to do daily.
Didn't manage a 15 minute declutter yesterday, so try later for that.

rowingboat - I know it sounds daft but I can quite easily get to 4pm, think, "oh, I'm starving" and then realise I haven't eaten anything at all yet I do eat all evening, so I am not a stick woman either.

Jas We think it might just be a rash, as no pustuleing (sp) yet. So fingures crossed, he does have a cold, chesty cough and a temp. So could be a heat type, sweaty man thing

evening all, well i managed to get a fair bit done today so am quite pleased and feeling slightly on top of things.

thanks for the nappy suggestions, i think i'll try a size up as i need to get more tomorrow, shame im not in the direction of tesco as any excuse to spend ages in there wandering around is great by me! i just used £70 of vouchers eating out at a fish restaurant last week, the food was really nice so i was dead chuffed!

im just relaxing messin about on computer avec a glass of vino as dp is out, relishing the peace and quiet! hope youre all okay! youre all on "date night" arent you?? im a normo aint i!?

lucysmam · 18/07/2008 21:38

kilty if you were near tesco it would be worth it, we only used them for a week or 2 but saved us going through loads of expensive ones while lo was pooing sooooooooo much and as they're a bigger size there's plenty of room but since you're not, a size up sounds about as good to me! you sound like me making excuses to wander in supermarkets!!! lol

kiltycoldbum · 18/07/2008 21:42

lucysmam i flippin love going round the supermarket, anyone, i dont care i am a supermarket junkie, love em love em love em nice tidy rows of lovely packaging and bargains ooooooohhhh

though i might wangle a trip to a little "metro" tesco tomorrow as theres one across from the cafe i want to go and i am sick of changing clothes 5/6 times a day as lovely as my darling baby's pooh is
