    Gryfon wow well done!

    By the way you can upload photos to the Facebook flyladies pages if you wish. I am thinking about adding the weeks list onto there each week too for those who prefer to resist the temptations of reading the thread or can access facebook free via mobiles........might start that later.

    Just about to set off to collect DPs car again (when he finishes playing with the latest addition to his toy collection), went back this time because the bonnet flaps, have got out of the car a few times to check it's shut, we thought it was normal because of the lightweight bonnets but then noticed it mentioned on a forum and service manager said 'that shouldn't happen' oh....

    My MACAW for this week, to get the conservatory finished (it's also the main PC area etc so has a cluttered desk etc) and to keep it tidy!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

  • Just had a call to say I didn't get the job I was interviewed for last week. :cry: I so don;t want to go back to my current job! It was good feedback though. The lady who called said I was a favourite, scored well and if it hadn't been for someone from Monmouthsire County Council applying who has worked in a similar post, I would have got it. She said I scored higher than an internal candidate. She also said there will be more vacancies after Christmas and urged me to apply for anything suitable, so I can only hope that I will be successful with that, or that something else will come up before I completely lose the plot where I am now! I'm gutted.

    Note to self - at least you have a job!

    Hugs for you Pink Fairy.

    My HHC turned into a lot more but i have emptied the WM, TD and DW and put all of the white bedding into the WM. I have cleared the kitchen and done a quick tidy everywhere else downstairs. Upstairs is rough but I must go and do some food shopping now or I wont have anything for packlunches tomorrow.

    Triker - 25 to 30 I had a plan and acheived it, with the suprise 'bonus' of DS1 at the end. Drifted before that. Plan for the last five years has been to minimise the time the boys spent in childcare. It did help to focus me at the time and convinced me to invest the money/ make the sacrifices to get where I wanted to be if that makes sense. Now I am just drifting again.

  • Hi All :hello: and welcome to newbies... come on in, the water's fine!

    I'm back from shopping. I went straight from the school run. £112 in Lidl, :eek: :eek: :eek: £31 in boots ( I love my curly hair, but I hate how much the products cost to maintain it! However they were all 3-4-2 + extra points voucher :money: ) & £15 in Bodycare. (top bargain : carex 50% extra 375ml 99p)

    Shattered doesn't come close. Bags all over the floor to be unpacked! That's before i start my list. I have started with some bits for Christmas now though.

    Right I've caught up, so off I go unpacking/putting away, making dinner, and myself some lunch. :wave:

    BTW... WTG Gryfon That's some impressive sorting out there. When I tackle the shelves in the dining room I'll do B4 and Aft photos too.

    Summer What's up babes? Why so blue?

  • Good afternoon Flyladies. I don't have time to do any flying until until this evening (unless letting the dog lick a pan clean counts). I just wanted to wish you all well and I'll catch up later.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D
