Lists for the Slatternly - May edition

[TrillianAstra]

Okay, I am clearly worrying way too much about this but there are only a few spaces left in the old thread!

(What do I think will happen if we finish without a new list? We'll just make a new one. Relax woman!)

Thanks to alicecrail for the title.

Please finish the old thread before starting on this one - there could be a prize if you are number 1000.

They do look good JKS, I've been looking at the Macpac too. Still not decided though!
I have however picked up all the stitches! On to knitting the hood and it's done! (It's actually not that difficult a knitting pattern, I just got stuck. It's going to look soooo cute though!) knitting it in brown for DS

You;re up late wasting - I bet you post a list earlier than me tomorrow though. You mother-types are so good at dealing with the lack of sleep

By the way I have no idea what you are knitting precisely because your link wants me to log in to the knitting website.

Wow you have been busy while I've been off getting my hair done, MILS treat, we got dds hair washed and blowdried and a trim, then I remembered she started swiming lessons with school on FRIDAYS

Hi Trinity & nork, hope you enjoy the thread

Hi everyone else, CC sounds like you had a nice day though, dd1 is doing the offerty (sp) so she is very excited and she has to lead class round the alter holding Fr Davids hand (her claim to fame, The priests), dd3 keeps calling it dd1s union

Morning everyone.

There was drinking of beer last night so I have taken advantage of my unemployed status and did not get up when DP did.

Haven't really got a list today either, on far less excuse than Muppets.

Very cute baby poncho wasting.

Trinity why are you sacred you're going to fail? Is it because we haven't explained an important rule of the Slatterns lists? You're not allowed to finish your list every day. If you finish your list every day (or if you clean your skirting boards) you are banished to the cleaning frenzy that is FLYlady

Sorry x post MM I suppose at least if they find out what it is you may be able to manage it better because you will have painkillers etc. Feel very for you that you are suffering so much.

After I spent all that time planting the lettuces and daffs again yesterday ds decided to copy the game he'd seem big sis playing and dug them all up again

CC that's a lot of floor washing

AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My washing line has just snapped in half! It's a rotary one and the pole has just snapped in half sending the carousel bit flying accross the garden, it just missed dd as it went

Why do things always go wrong when you don't have money to fix them . Will have to put one on the credit card, can't live without my washing line.

Hey everyone back from hospital dds joints are fine, back in 4 months

MM hope you get a diagnosis soon!

CWWM Had you settled on a name yet?

God seems like we are all having one of those months, (although we've been having one since before the credit crunch)

Yeap Claireybee my dishwaser and tumble drier are broke and even though I never had them before I moved here, I'm used to them now and really can't afford to replace them at the minute, there are too many other thing that require money at the minute, ...like food,bills etc

So there is a big pile of dishes in kitchen as I didn't get back from hairdresser until late

CWWM DD called my bump Douggie when I was pregnant, no idea where she got it from but it stuck . We were going to call him Xavier but it didn't fit when he was born and Douggie did- dd obviously knew (we didn't even know the sex).

And if you weren't heavily pregnant I'd ask you to come and make my house look all sparkly, have done sod all again and am in such a bad mood I'll probably end up throwing stuff around if I start cleaning

We get free entrance today only ! well it is their business so it makes sense!

Never mind CC .

Clairey sorry you are having a bad day but your story about dd and ds made me smile .

Right am just about to do school run have ironed and everything babies clothes look lovely hanging in wardrobe [saddo].

I can't believe that no one is going to have a guess! There was a bloke in front of me with a real life parrot on his shoulder! A real parrot in the bakery! I really hate birds and nearly left, was just the lure of the iced buns that kept me. He was just taking his parrot out in town with him - why would you do that?? Nutter!

DD has just had the biggest strop she has ever had, i don't really blame her to be honest, every 30secs it was dd don't do that/touch that/go there and she is teething and ready for a nap, so we are just watching some ITNG to calm her down.
