Nicki to reduce 200 words just cut a paragraph out!!:rotfl:
Wish I could, but its individual questions. Just 20 too many now and I think I'm going to have to give in and risk being marked down. I can't cut anything else out otherwise it won't read right!
Now its time for the essay. Much easier would you believe :rotfl::rotfl: Won't get it done by 3pm though, I know that already!:o

Going to be really sickening now and say once again how grateful I am to this thread. Normally when I'm looking after little sister and the nephews, the house is utter choas and I find that I don't have the time to get anything done which But because I have my set list of tasks and the encouragement of the other flyladies its so much easier to fit everything in and to break the tasks down!Sanity is the playground of the unimaginative!0 -
