I'm gonna have to join in this week too. Have broken up from uni now and have a houseproud M-i-L coming next weekend for the first time in about 2 years!

Edit: Gonna buy one of those window squeegee things on a pole from Argos this week to clean the windows too as I've given up on our window cleaner ever coming back!

Evening all,

I am in again for Monday only and then we go away tuesday to tuesday, we had a lovely lunch with friends had too much wine and had a very nice sleep 6 - 7.30 girls were watching the dvd from the wedding we went to at end of april so didnt mind that both parents were happily snoring on the sofas.

On the pegs and ironing front I dont think about what kind of peg I am using never mind what the colour is - they are all in a poly bag and I have a mixture of coloured plastic, wooden and big extra strong grey ones and the ironing gets done when I havve something to watch on tv or I run out of things to where.

soappie glad your weekend went well
denise nice to see you was wondering where you were last week
kazwookie hope all goes well tomorrow

Off now to unload and reload DW give kitchen a s&s and then go to bed to watch the grand priz highlights at 10.45, will thinkof a list tomorrow but packing and studying will be at the top as havent packed a thing yet and I have an assignment which needs doing before we fly.

See you all in the morning.

Welcome Froddie and Bettie - to the insane world that is the Flylady thread :rotfl:

Pegs? I will be all superior and let you all know that I have wooden ones. So, not only do they all look the same colour but when they ping apart and different halves get embedded in different bushes in the garden they will biodegrade a lot quicker than plastic ones. (That's my excuse for not digging them out anyway!)

I am now OE -(officially exhausted) and am about to crawl into my pit to sleep the sleep of the dead until the alarm goes off early in the morning. I fear I have had Too Much Sea Air....

But, before I go off to bed - Kazwookie - I'll be thinking of you tomorrow hun and big hugs...
