    Just dropping in to catch up and say hello!!! Went out after work so have only just got back, but did manage a few sneaky checks on the thread during the day so there wasn't so much to catch up on.

    No flying (obviously, as I left home just after 6am and got back after 11pm), but my kitchen is now tiled and the hot water pressure has definitely improved now the cold water tank is 40cm higher!

    Welcome to all the newbies... it appears we now have TWO peg cults :eek: rather than just the one, as there is a breakaway faction. However, it is not compulsory to join, whatever TAG & Valli & Natty tell you ;)

    Toots - glad you had a lovely day

    Polka - good to see you're back. Sorry you had such a tough time. It's a difficult decision to make, but it might be better to get it over and done with. At the end of the day, you and DF need to discuss it, as you'll need to know that you're going to get the support you need while you're recovering.

    greenbee I've always been quite good at finding stuff and I spend way too much time online for my own good :o I've been doing 'signposting and research' someone called it last week for families for a few years, if someone needs something and I don't know I will come hell or highwater find it for them.

    Well you're obviously extremely good at it, and I wish there were more people out there like you. You've got initiative and tenacity, you're creative and resourceful... and I'm looking for someone just like you to take a badly paid job in Windsor :D

    I know you've all be up to loads today, so hugs to everyone who needs them. Hope the hubby-exchange goes well... please note that I'm not participating as I don't have one and I'm not going to take on one of yours just to give someone a break :p I need my space now I'm used to it, and I don't want anyone cluttering it up. Besides, after the write-ups they're getting, being single seems a much better deal :T

    Night all... probably won't be dropping in tomorrow, so I'll have a major catch-up (on the flying as well as the thread :o ) to do on Friday.

    Morning all

    Woke up early again today. Don't know why - so I'm up and about. Today's going to be really boring at work. We have a team meeting all morning ~yawn~ I hate that sort of thing. But, I can coast this afternoon and then I'm on holiday :D

    Hope all you fly people have a lovely day

    Hi Denise, never long enough, haven't seen you on for a while, but sure the reason is further back and I haven't read it yet...:o hope you're well...
    You to Polka, just saw you posting again too, so hope all is well...

    Hi all, just wanted to say hi before dissappearing to work again...

    Didn't get home till gone 7, so by time dinner done, DS taken to Karate, looked at possible house exchange (from the outside obviously, doesn't everyone peer through windows and look over fences???? :rotfl: ) it was really late and I went to bed, trouble was I couldn't sleep, finally fell off about 2am, so have had about 3 1/2 hours sleep and have woken up with a cold I think, so am feeling rubbish.

    Was a good flylady though, and have S&S'd the kitchen (DS is doing dishwasher before school, even though he doesn't know it yet! :D ), S&S's the front room and made my bed, plus I have just sorted out all the paperwork on my desk, as I couldn't find a thing - now all tidily put away and a nice tidy pile put in my 'todo' box ready to work on when I get home.

    Have a great day everyone, sorry if I have missed anyone but I am only up to page 34 at the mo, and I'm sure there will be another 10 pages tonight, so I will try to catch up then...

  • Hello All

    Well I didn't manage anything from Wednesdays list unfortunatley, ad to take DD2 to get weighed aqnd then went to Tescos. When i got to the cash desk after a mad dash round discovered that I'd left my purse at home :rolleyes: so had to go home and come all the way back, then went to get chips for the men (having my kitchen done) Kids were then very clingy so only maganed a little bit of washing sorting. Tyring not to get too stresssed about it as I did give the bathroom a good clean last week and did manage to give the bath a quick wipe. Doubt that I'll manage to much done today as DD2 has woken up with a cold poor little thing, so will probably be feeding all day! Oh well , will do my best!
