Morning all
Hi to all newiees and returnees
Johanne long may it last, but you stick to your guns, don't let him think one day of being useful is going to solve any thing. I am glad you have at last had you time. Maybe at long last he has relised what a pain in the axx he has been.
Day 11 of my cold / flu, feel a bit better, still coughing my lungs up.
Have a good day

Ok silly question here. Does anyone print the lists to carry around with them so they can see what they're supposed to be doing? I tend to get a bit lost once I leave the computer and get very sidetrackedFluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!

Morning all.
Hollyh – hope you get things sorted at the dentist
Lady-l – glad you enjoyed weekend. Just what you needed.
SS – positive vibes
Tigerlee - welcome
Greenbee – might be a good idea to have a floor before you install WM. Family get-together sound great.
Johanne - maybe he got a shock when you started looking for a flat for him
Oj - good luck for interview
Julie – bet they won’t put up with him being in a mood at work (on the other hand it may be something at work that caused the mood)
Soappie – Glad you are feeling better, but baby steps.
G&B - good luck with study. (I really need to start thinking about whether I want to do a course next year)
Gryfon - Hugs -hope it goes quickly.
Well we had rain overnight and this morning so the snow is going.
Hugs to the poorlies and positive vibes for a new week.
Off for a shower. See you later.

MACAW... EAT BETTER, no snacks, no junk0 -
Right one list printed! Glad to know I'm not the only one
Memory isn't quite what it was and it wasn't brilliant before I had children!
Ok another question! If your worksurfaces are completely cluttered and you know it'll take a good hour or two or maybe more to sort through all of them, do you concentrate on the ones you use the most and then go back to the others later? Or would you just try to get them all done? Although I tend to loose motivation and get bored quicklyFluttering about an inch off the ground, I may fly properly one day and soar in the clouds!
