Morning ladies...just a quickie as I haven't managed to catch up (up to page 20 on 40posts per page and this will be page 28ish I think :eek::eek: )
Anyways, flying is almost none existent in this house ATM but I'd appreciate positive vibes sent my way today - I'm being observed for the first time this afternoon and I've hardly done any paperwork.:o Guess how I'm spending break & lunch ?
:o
Best shift myself as I need to get sorted and off to school, hopefully before the bell again - my MACAW is basically working as I've managed to be in class before the kids every day this week and DD was in early on Monday as well :j:j :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Morning all,

When i come back i am going to do an hours study before I find my list and set to it, so it will be nearer lunch before i am back.

Morning all
Still weary but I'm up!
Hope that our poorlies are on the mend!
Valli - I forgot to say condolences, but did I read correctly it was Gobi, not Sahara? Big hugs though! x
OJK - hope your crew is improving
SS - Loved the joke. It reminded me of an occasion my DB told me of. Always one for a proper handkerchief, he was sitting listening to the sermon when he needed to blow his nose. He put his hand in his pocket and pulled out........ a pair of my SIL's knickers!!!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:The cornet section collapsed, the CO didn't know what was happening and when SIL found out she was mortified!DB's excuse - "I didn't put my ironing away!"

2. She is wonderfully encouraging (FrankieM)
3. She is very supportive of everyone (A&W's Mum)

10. She's interested in other people's opinions.
Morning Toots I hope this list is making you feel better!! ((hugs))

Blergh...who invented mornings? Although I suppose I'm not helped by not sleeping till about 2am :rolleyes:
I think my plan today is to place some boxes I have in the middle of the kitchen floor, one for the study, one for the lounge etc...then put everything that's in the kitchen but shouldn't be in those boxes! Then take each box to whatever room it's supposed to be in and empty it. I think the main problem I have with cleaning is getting around the clutter in the first place
I'll also do the usually DW, WM, folding clothes, sorting baby out etc.
BTW sorry I don't do long lists replying to people, I can never remember who's done what and then I get confusedFluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!
