I Escaped!!!

Yeah!! Today is the first time, since Little Prince started school, that I've managed to get out and about during the day!! The timing was tight and the shopping was a bit whistlestop - but I was out of the house!!!!

I needed to get some more bits to make more Wishes for my OHGWQ swaps and also to get some things ready for my LID groups Secret Buddy swap :-) The first mission was completed very easily. But the second proved a bit tricky!! The shop I was going to buy my bits from had closed down, so I frantically had to find a shop selling similar things, well it was either that or totally rethink my gift ideas lol. Finding a different shop sounded easier!! Eventually on the way back to the car park, I did manage to find the elusive items and my Secret Buddy gift is ALMOST ready :-) Wow I'm feeling organised today - hope it lasts lol.

I even found time to get Little Miss Sensible/Activist a new Winter weight quilt, she'll be able to pick that up when she visits in a weeks time. I wonder if saying goodbye the second time will be any easier - I really hope so. Then again, to be honest, it can't be any worse!!

Glad to see you are feeling better.Unfortunately my stomach is still acting weird.I have to go to the Doctors tomorrow..trying hard not to go as worry with medical update due in New Year.
I probably won't be blogging for a bit.Little fella has had a few moments at school this week and its been a bit stressful!!
Also annoying that referrals won't get into Dec but good news that we may be in review soon?

Hi Rosie,
I hope the doctor can get you sorted out, let me know how you get on if you have chance. Try not to worry about it affecting your medical update - you need to be fit and well for boys and for your future daughter :-) Sorry to hear your little man has been having a few 'moments' at school!! We've got parents evening next week, so we'll be finding out about Little Prince's 'moments' too!!

Getting Little Prince something for doing so well at school is a fab idea - I'll look up the build a bear page tomorrow and see what's there. Although like your boys he doesn't need any more cuddlies lol.

Take care of yourself and hope you feel better soon
Love
Janet

HI Janet,
Have bought little Prince a gift for being such a good boy in school. Will be mailing it around the first of the coming week.
How big does the material need to be for the quilts? We don't have to exchange, but I would like to contribute something to both quilts....gotta get our good wishes in there too!!

Cabbage Queen,
That is so sweet, you are so lovely :-) I'm sure he will love getting a brave boy present - ha he loves any presents!! The quilt squares need to be about 9" squares of 100% cotton. Don't suppose you have any material lying around lol lol lol :-)
Love
Janet

Went to the Doctors..just putting it down to stress..no surprise there and yes whats the point of worrying...need to keep health for the boys and think about the present!
I know about too many teds but middle boy loves his Autumn bear and now Dino is on route!
I'm far too soft and always thinking about the kids ...must behave or house will be covered with teds!

Hi Rosie,
Glad you got to the doctors and he was able to let you know what was causing your upset stomach. Probably not easy at the moment, but try to get some time to relax - even if its just a bubble bath once the boys are in bed. I'll be thinking about you :-)

And just cos I said Little Prince doesn't NEED any more cuddlies, doesn't mean he won't get them lol. I'm like you I just can't resist lol.

Take care of yourself and hope you feel better soon
Lots of love
Janet
