Weekly Flylady Thread 25th August 2008

Zed42

Johanne - Just seen your news, how wonderful and especially after such a fraught day yesterday ... the only way now is UP

Oddly enough no flying from me this morning, as I've been working, apart from a quick-not-on-the-list item, which was sorting out a pile of outgrown clothes from DD to give back to my mate, who's dropping off a school pinafore dress in the vague hope it'll fit (personally, I think it's going to look like a mini-dress, LOL!) But, it does mean I've effectively done a 27 fling thing, LOL!

Got the flour out the cupboard in an attempt to motivate myself to make some bread. Not happened yet.

I'm feeling overwhelmed at the idea of getting this house straight (or straighter!), but needs must and a little at a time. You lot are always so cheerful and motivating.

Polkadot .. spots, itching .... hope the trip to A&E is quick and painless, hope he feels better soon. Perhaps a call to NHS Direct first?

Not good. Having said that I'd been doing so much baking I ran out of plain flour so used some SF flour in it as well, ran out of sugar so used sweetener, I even ran out of paper cases. Not much good am I!

The dogs and birds have enjoyed them though. Although DD had one this morning and didn't complain but I thought they were gross!
