morning everyone:hello:
I cant believe how many posts this thread gets and what a friendly bunch you are as well.
Thank you for making a newbie feel very welcome.
Its 8.40 and only been up 10 mins:o Don't remember the last time I wasn't up by 6am on a weekday...could get used to this, shame its only a week off work.
I notice Tuesday seems to be living room/hall/stairs, well as mine is covered in my piles of stuff to be sorted from my declutter I cant see me getting much done on that list today...never mind will continue to sort/donate/throw.Just to explain to all newbies - Valli and I love to iron. Me 15 items at a time only :rolleyes:and Valli irons everything including dusters.:rolleyes:
If you run out I have plenty of ironing for you, can provide tea and twinks:D0 -
Of course all the newbies will like you Valli........until they realise about your peg, ironing, Ikea (sorry Mudbath:o) and stationery fetishes:rotfl: I think you and I must have been separated at birth. Nothing like a trip round Staples. :drool:
Just to explain to all newbies - Valli and I love to iron. Me 15 items at a time only :rolleyes:and Valli irons everything including dusters.:rolleyes: We both have a thing about peg ettiquette:rolleyes: Having said that someone on here, though I can't remember who, has a pink washing line AND pink pegs to match. Now it appears we also share a stationery passion too!! Along with several other flyladies I believe.;)
So to summarise we're all a bit bonkers BUT a very kind and friendly bonkers lot we are too!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

:hello:
Morning all
Washing pegged on line (all yellow pegs, natch) so job number one is to jam the strained juice from yesterday and then try a kitchen clean. Lots to do - lovely and sunny here - and I've a line free so pass it up and I'll peg it out!
See you all later:wave:Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Morning all :hello:
DD is in school:j There are only the breakfast dishes to wash (so I'll put them into soak as we had museli and then wash up after lunch.
) My lunch is going to be leftover stew, I'll get all the bits of meat & veg out the slowcooker and then put the remaining liquid in the freezer once its cooled
DD has requested pizza for tea so I'll do that for about 5pm and then she can have a warm bath & go to bed as she's already yawning :rotfl::rotfl:
Plan for today - go down to Asda and buy DD a new school skirtI bought her one aged 8 from MrS last week or the week before and it fitted her great. This morning the back of it is about 2" above the crease of her knees
She's obviously grown as the front is 1" higher as well :rolleyes: I'll pick up a lidded storage box while I'm there for the kitchen crockery.
Then I'll do an hours study, and then some of the list...now where is it? ....
