Slatterns and list makers reunited - FAQ returns!!!

[FAQinglovely]

new thread - a little early but I wanted to mark my return.

Sorry for everything I've missed - but I can promise you I'm BACK now

(any major updates please let me know )

my list is all done EXCEPT sort that bloody clean washing, its getting bigger instead of smaller!!

Everyone else must be off somewhere today!

Hey plum I'm not busy, just trying to stay awake! House looks like a bomb has hit it, and i'm busy tomorrow, so i will be back with a vengence on monday! Are you up to much this weekend?

dh's birthday tomorrow but not doing much, not much left in wallet, might make a start on cleaning out caravan incase we find a pot of money we could go away for one or two nights

With or without the dc?
We haven't been away from DD for more than a couple of hrs, but are hoping that a friend may have her for one night for our first wedding anniversary in october.
Are there any good places to take the caravan near you?

with the dcs, we haven't done much this summer so I have to get my bum in gear, there are loads of places near us for a test run, unfortunately we don't get the weather to enjoy all of the lovely places in Northen Ireland
and then hopefully next year we will explore down South

Hope your DH has a good birthday tomorrow We didn't do presents last year because all our money was going on the wedding, we still had good birthdays though.

I hope you manage to get away

I'm off to load the dishwasher and then bed. Was awake from 3.30 this morning and i am knackered, Night

Thanks PBM I will take a look DD is really into maths atm . Happy birthday to your DH .

HMHB ideas to keep you sane always make sure you have lots of stuff out for DS1 while you are BF ..DD seems to want the potty/drink/pens just as I sit down to BF .
Box sets are good too for you when there is nothing on tv in the middle of the night you can catch up on your favourite programmes .
I have also found that Galaxy chocolate seems to be helping to keep me sane .
