    Have decided I need to take my timer up there with me as it's a bit overwhelming at the moment so I'll do a HHC in there and see how I get on.

    Morning all.

    We're going to spend the day at the allotment because it's quite sunny. I'm off to make sandwiches in a minute. DH has decided we're definitely going to get a (Pigpen look away please) caravan over the winter. We won't be able to use it until next year so no point getting one now. Apparently they're cheaper in the winter (so he's been told). What do you bet he buys me one for my 40th. Actually, I wouldn't mind that as it would mean lots of weekends away next year.

    I'm really going to get back flying next week as our house is a pit again.

    Have a good day everyone xx

    Two loads of washing out on the line. It was sunny but now it's very cloudy and dark.

    My sister is coming today for an hour so I've given the bathroom/toilet a proper clean, S&Sd kitchen, dusted and polished the living room and vacuumed right through downstairs. She won't be checking! But it makes me feel better.

    Achievements so far on this sunny/not so sunny/sunny morning

    Stripped beds x 2
    Sorted washing
    WM x 2
    TD x 2 Towels folded and put away from No 1
    DW x 1 emptied and all put away
    Sink emptied and reloaded into DW
    Breakfasted x 2 :o 5.30 and 9.00
    Soaked in bath
    Dog walked

    Plan now nip into town to look for bedlinen for DS and new black trousers for funeral on Wednesday. Need to finish coffee and put a face on first.

    Interesting to hear all this the talk about caravans. OH has mentioned it as his best mate is always away for the weekend in his tin tent. Trouble would be finding somewhere to park it up.

    Anyway enjoy your morning especially if the sun is still shining

    My tasks for the day (some are weather dependant)

    - Get frame tent out of Garage and spread out to dry (everything in my garage gets wet when it rains) also dry car seats.
    - Somehow persuade OH to take his 4 months worth of empty cider bottles to the recycling. Hmm, how to bribe a man?
    - As it's sunny, do as much washing as possible.
    - Dreaded task of putting away washing (for some reason my most hated task, I would honestly rather clean the loo).
    - Weeding my bed, OH is a gardener and very critical but one day I will get it nice.
    - Bit of food shopping, meal plan, cook kids food.

    AAAAH - just looked round and little-uns have got all the toys out everywhere so
    - throw out lots of toys (many are broken and it's birthday season) DONE
    Washing is about to go out.

    Better go do that now or I'm at risk of spending more time typing than flying!

    Can someone please tell me how to do the crossing out thing?:rolleyes:

    Morning all

    Just read Wellers thread and have been sat here in shock for a while. It took me right back to when DH died, different circumstances I know but horrible all the same.

    Hope you are all having a good weekend, spent some time weeding the 'border' in the back garden yesterday and I have to say it is almost looking presentable out there! I needto dig it all over properly and get the roots out before I can declare it done but compared to a couple of weeks ago it is much improved. That is part of the reason for my reason for lack of posting.

    Still catching up with you all, posting from pg 17!!!! Better go and get dressed and get something else done. :wave:

    As lots of us have kids getting end of term reports I thought it would be fun if we did reports for ourselves or other flyladies as to how well we have performed this term - what do you think?

    'AnW'sMum could try harder or should I say she could try. If she put as much effort into flying as she does into avoiding flying her house would be a shiny clutter free zone'
