    :o Apart from washing up the dishes that the twins left since Thursday...ugh it was awful. All I have done since I got back this afternoon is cook tea and wonder around on the computer.!!
    I have an excuse, my arm is bad today, from driving......:rotfl: Ah well tomorrow is another day.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    I still haven't finished any of the jobs that I started earlier, but I have done a reasonable amount without wearing myself out (which considering I started off the day saying I wouldn't move from the sofa, is not too bad!):o

    Now watching wife-swap and telling my kids that they should think themselves lucky :rolleyes:

  • Hi hypno - I like the idea of writing balances down. I think that's where I've been going wrong, as I never get round to updating my spreadsheets (I've tried various variations over the years).

    Hope you're ready to have a great flylady week (wise words from your DS on that one).

    Think I'll keep watching the Olympics too ;)

    GTD, hope you are ok. Anything exciting happening :confused:

    P.....cuppa coming your way, but no biccies I'm afraid :o Athletics early on, followed by cycling at 9.30 and a bit of sailing thrown in. Triathlon already done...........and that's just me......goodness knows what is happening at the olympics :rotfl:

    The housework list looks daunting - maybe that is just the colour though. I will be giving it my best shot...........it's only housework, how difficult can it be?
