A bit run down

[ailbhe]

I was just looking at the mess in the kitchen, dining room, rest of the ground floor, etc, and I thought "I wonder if I have B12 deficiency like my friend does?" and seriosuly considered that for a minute before I remembered -

I'm thirty-one weeks pregnant, I have two active home-educated children, and we all have a very nasty cold with a stomach thing as a special bonus offer.

That might be why I don't feel up to tackling the mess, then, perhaps.

However, I am bound and determined to tackle the stairs, because I want to reboot the printer and maybe measure the square metres we live in, because I have no actual idea and a few people on my friendlist have mentioned theirs in the past couple of months and I'm curious.

Edit: (7.25x4) + (2.5x4) twice is 78sqm which is 839.5 sq feet, apparently. It's a little rough, because it doesn't include the airspace where the stairs go up, or the bay window, but they about cancel each other out, I think.

Edit again: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8201900.stm indicates that we actually have a fraction more floorspace than average in a new build, though the five chimney breasts probably eat that up.

We have a storage space, which is very helpful for baby stuff (though it turns out we haven't used the moses basket at all this time - need to freegle it, I think, ditto cot) but causes arguments as we disagree about what should stay there and I get frustrated as I can't get there easily.
