Melbourne meet-up : I can make Monday or Friday next week - DaVinci Exhibition on Tuesday, Mothers Group on Wednesday, Law Institute meetings Thursday - poor Flynn - he will be bushed!
Nickers, flynn is like Nixon - likes being on the move but grumpy once home. I put it down to the broken sleep if he is in and out of car all day. If I am in the city and training in, he is ok cause he spends the day in his pram, but in and out the car seat really irks him.
Bath, that cake looks so professional! I always say that "baking is not my forte" but DH says it's just cause I don't practice (I am generally considered to be a good cook). I think he is right, but until this year I had a wholly unreliable oven.
Amanda, like I said a few posts ago - to be a mother of four, you are an inspiration. IT makes me believ it is possible for me to have three, one day
KL, just noticed you plan to TTC in March/April - aound the same time as DH and us are planning. Maybe we will be December buddies as well as June buddies! So sorry you feel your friends aren't around much anymore - are you the first of your bunch to have a child? We are lucky in that most of our mates are pg, have kids or TTC.
Jaspen, re: unpacked house and clutter - try the 4 box method. One is for "must keep, use daily" (ie : sheets, towels); two is for "must keep but don't use often" (baking trays), three is for "not used often but needed" (ie: cake tin in shape of dinosaur) and four is for CRAP (ie: stuff you keep out of guilt, broken rubbish, etc) Idea of using 4 box method is you just sort, don't dwell. There is no getting distracted by putting scissors away then seeing washing needs folding, then watching Dr Phil, etc. You just sort, and deal with it later. I reckon you could then focus on putting away the stuff you use all the time first. I am trying this in my place and it seems to work.
Neeny, what is it with people commenting about babies' size! One woman in my mothers group is always getting told her boy is too big, and never did you see a more happy, strapping lad. There's nothing wrong with him!! A bloke in the street asked her if he was "on the boob or the tube?" Just tell them to wrack off, or maybe as IK would say, "bite me"!
My day : I was industrious!! I have been saying to DH I can't believe how little I have been getting done around the house, now I realise it is because I am always out Today I cleaned Flynn's room, organised the cupboards, threw out stuff, sorted his "too small" clothes, did and put away washing, did the filing - so much! Gotta start having at least ONE day a week at home, I reckon!
Better go - last minute tidy up before DH gets home. don't you hate it when you have been busy all day but it looks like you've done nothing cause you're "in the middle" of a big clean!
