    Part of me wants to say don't bother phoning, another part says don't lower yourself. It's a hard one.

    Morning all.

    Oh goodness, what a night's sleep that was. I woke up sweating with tummy cramps, got up went to the loo, think I lost about 1/2 stone altogether with sweat and what not, back to bed, managed to sleep but on and off. No storms last night as they had originally predicted. Not even a drop of rain.

    Morning all well last night was horrendous. Woke up at 2.30 from the sound of the rain and thunder. Could hear dripping so woke OH up and we've got a leak through the ceiling in the front room. But towels down the try and get most of the water up and put a bucket there to catch the rest. That took about an hour. OH put the radio on in the kitchen as the dog was scared bless him.

    LO got up at 6 so got him up and have him his breakfast. He's gone to work with OH for a couple of hours this morning so I can get cleaned and tidied ready for later. He had his little hi vis on. Looked so cute.

    Went in the conservatory and the floor was swimming so we need to get that fixed too.

    Got sil and mil coming at 10 to help prepare sandwiches etc for the party seen as though my mum said she's not coming now :(

    One bathroom cleaned, kitchen cleaned now time to Hoover up .

    Have a good day all x

    Hope today goes well for you, sorry to hear of your leaks, we had nothing. Apparently a storm moved north but on the west coast of the island so missed us, could see the odd distant flash but that was all.

    I woke to the sound of heavy heavy rain last night but got back to sleep ok..... Didn't wake til 8am which is not like me so I'm pleased xx

    Oh no Michelle, can't believe your house is leaking

    Not good



    I hope everything goes well today and I have to say, I wouldn't phone your sister./mum. If she cannot be adult about it for LO then I'm sorry, I wouldn't back down on this. I am very stubborn though!! You need to do what feels right for you.

    Glad you get a couple of hours child free...... It's always nice even if your busy busy xx

    Morning ladies. I am knackered, the storm here kept me up for a while. Was absolutely bucketing it down and seemed like the thunder and lightning went on for ages. There was one particular loud clap which sounded very very close which made me jump out of my skin and shout expletives hahah.

    Just waiting for my mum to pick me up, we are going for a mooch around the shops and coffee. Need to put my face on then that's me ready.

    I first got woken up by the rain. The lightning followed very shortly after with distant rumbles in the background but it got closer and closer as time went on. I really needed a wee as well but I was too scared to get out of bed and go!!

    Thanks emma x

    It's glorious here, sunshine, and so very very warm. We missed the rain, they are calling the lightening storm the silent disco though as it went up the west side of the islands coast but no thunder was heard,

    Started the cleaning, down the toilet in the hall and cleaned the hall and think I lost a few lbs in sweat, have asked hubby to ask me, he's procrastinating on the phone, so I am procrastinating on here

    It's cloudy and cool here but it's nice to be honest..... I need to get cleaned up and get the washing done but can't be bothered. OH has nipped out to buy a fad diet thing from a mate and then to get his hair cut. He's done really well through healthy eating this week. He has lost 6lb in a week!! He wants to lose 3 St before the wedding but I think that's too much. I don't want him skinny. I love him being chunky but he wants to do it for him so I got to get behind him x

    Ahhh Em, he does not look like he needs to lose 3 stone to be honest.

    All housework is complete. I've sweated so much it was like doing a workout. Kind of clouded over here as well now but still so very very warm. Hubby just had the task of doing our bathroom. I've done all of downstairs. Off for a shower and hair wash now though.

    He has got a wobbly belly but I like that.... He's got a big chest/shoulders and arms (muscle wise) but a fat tummy lol.....

    I don't like toned toned men.... I like a natural look but ya know, I love him regardless and if he feels he needs to then so be it!!

    All showered now, was a tad claggy following it though and had a cooling one. Sunshine is hazy outside at the mo, but still so hot. Just going to have a chill couple of hours before we head off for our night at our venue. The room hubby booked as well was the main bridal suite that we stayed in for the wedding, cannot wait. It's lush,

    Morning all well I did phone my mum once I'd got 5 mins...which turned in to nearly an hour phone call. U said it's selfish that they're not coming to see LO so she agreed and they came but didn't come back to our house for the BBQ which was fair enough. Them and OH kept their distance. Everyone really enjoyed it.

    We came back to out house just after 4pm and the drinks started flowing. At 6pm we started the BBQ as id not ate all day I was starving. Once the BBQ had done I got cracking with cleaning the buffet stuff away as didn't want to end up doing it all today.
    1.30am came and id had enough as all I was doing was cleaning everywhere and tidying up after everyone. OH was in the hot tub with his mates so everyone finally went about 2am. Was a good day.

    LO got me up at 6 :-( so while he was eating his breakfast I've been washing all the glasses and BBQ stuff etc outside and tidying up. 2 loads of washing in as no one brought their own towels for the hot tub.

    Now got LO in the bath and I'm going to have a shower as my back and feet are killing me. OH still snoring in bed :-(

    Hiya all.

    Had a lovely night, we want out for a meal as the venue could not cater for us as they had a big function on, we joined in on the party later on though as one of the band 7 midwives was organising it. Went to see her and she said oh you should have text me and I could have snook you in for the meal as well.

We won a boat trip for four along a heritage coastal route and then finishing with a fast fun ride back to get the lobster pots in

    Finally sat down. Took LO to his friends tea party. After an hour OH wanted to go as he was tired. I said who's been up since the crack of dawn, came home and been cleaning and tidying again and sorting LO presents out all while he's sat on his arse doing nothing. OH just started snoring so I woke him up and said you are not going to sleep, it's your turn to do something so now he's just flipped, slammed the door then kicks off.

    It was so nice, we did not leave until 130 as the weather was a tad naff before that. Stayed there until just after five, went to a different beach instead of our one as ours is stoney, we went to a sandy one.
