*throws a mule at Mudbath*

Two questions? Why don't you ever throw a matching pair of mules at me then at least I could sell them on ebay? So far I have a blue left foot in a size 7, a zebra print right foot in a size 3, and a sparkly pink fluffy number in an adult size 13 (worrying)!!!:rotfl:
Secondly...have you eaten yet? xx

Dustykitten

I'm eating Jelly babies - I love jelly babies

Valli

Oooh DD has just made these they're a bit TOO good lol.

Mind you she made a mess - lots of pots to wash - so I got 2 for clearing up...nyom

And she is very impressed that I found the recipe for her - not hard figured I'd go to the horses mouth...

MY friend has phoned and was thinking we could share one of the M&S dine for £10 deals BUT I can't find out if there is one on at the moment so was wondering if any of you knew?

Spent two hours this am making a prop newspaper for the play the kids are doing and, though I say so myself, it looks good:D it is oversized so that it can be seen from the back and I even typed the story to go with the headlines. Thank goodness for Micros0ft word...BTW my DD had the lil cat prowling on the paper when she is logged on so I checked and it's back. Don't use it - just like cats:D been to M0rrisons to spend £40 and bought another friend a pressie (CD) and me a CD I spotted yesterday which I hid behind some others as it was the last one and only £3.99 - still there - ha it's mine all mine (Jimmy Somerville Greatest Hits) (I only popped in cos the petrol queue was so long and didn't have the energy to do my £40 shop - I live so near it's easy to pop in - I was checking if they still had the one my friend wanted - loads of 'em at £6.99 Take This or summat :rotfl:)

Hope all are well. Great news Em! I am really pleased for you!

AAAARRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! I LOST MY POST AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

try again!!!
emily - brilliant news about the bungalow! Hope you get in for Chrsitmas - new year new home - how lovely!!
pigpen Love the boots - I dont think you should be wearing them what with your bad back, hips, legs, ankles, and dodgy neighbour drivers - i think I should take them off your [STRIKE]hands[/STRIKE]feet LOL!!!
gryfon hugs honey you are not pathetic just a silly moo for thinking like that but its just because you are down - I dont think you are a silly moo normally (are you??) - the others have all given good advice especially AnW's Mum and Flower- remember too you cant do 'all or nothing' - it doesnt work and you are not fit to do an 'all' day - if we are honest none of us are (well except the really fit youngsters!) but most of us suffer in some way if we do too much in one day so you are going to have to accept doing small portions!!! I know its frustrating but if you keep up with your 15mins challenges in one room for a day I am sure you will achieve loads!!!!
G&B sorry to hear you ran out of time - I bet you have done enough though to still pass.
flower love the poem!!
supergirl supporting friends in time of need is very good flylady work - stop putting yourself down and a huge well done to continuing with your alcohol free month. Are you on a tight budget by any chance!!!!:rotfl: :rotfl:
mudbath sorry to hear of your loss of pet and car, sick child and spotty puppy dog - just what you needed this week!!! You have been a busy flylady - my cousin had a rather large op recently including a hysterectomy and she was worried about being bored - didnt happen - by the time she had rested as instructed (she really didnt feel like doing much at the beginning) and week by week started doing the things they allow you to do the time flew by!
jjef hope you are ok - have you eaten today? take it easy now.
boddy -hope DD's change is permanent for you
flower thanks for posting the kitties - I can never manage it!
triker sounds like you are coming down with something - have a cup of tea and get warm inside - hot water bottle to cuddle too??
Hi valli!!!
toots xx

lil_me

Flower we were laughing too, she'd only clipped someone by ending up a bit on the kerb but after we got over the giggles I think we all realised how dangerous it could have been.
Pollybear hope your DD is on the mend. Have you thought of getting the meds elsewhere online instead of the vets, that is a lot of money!
boddy sounds like some improvement for your DD, must feel a bit strange seeing her change so much
ashia well done on the Christmas spends, it's not saving money it's a lifestyle change, it takes a lot to change habits like maxing a cc instead of saving etc. Dropped you an email.
FrankieM sorry to hear your news, thinking of you both x
emily great news!
g&b hope the exam went well
Mudbath ((Super hugs)) to you and yours!
SarahS hope you had a lovely evening with your brother
pigpen I was wondering what happened with Freecycle too....

Hugs for everyone who would like or needs one! Blimey it's taken me some time to get caught up with you all tonight.

Megan is doing her fluff eating again, which means yet again she's got a poorly tummy. It's starting to get on my nerves now, I just wish she'd stop eating everything she can.

Downstairs in the house is now tidy and clean, thanks to me having tidied up after everyone, but at least it is done! Bathroom and hall still nice too. Conservatory still a box room but that system seems to be working well.

Our room needs the most work now, it's a pile of 'stuff', unfortunately that won't be done tomorrow I don't think as it looks pretty manic on the calendar.

Tomorrows list for me

DSs up, fed, watered, DS1 off in taxi and walk DS2 to school

Hi

Hope everyone is well and welcome newbies/returners.

Hopefully we should be in the bungalow by Xmas :j

So far this evening I've done errands and spent time with my friend. Goodnight

Mudbath

Tooti - I think what you said is so true. One of my friends said that my problem was I was likening this to my wrist and whilst back then my brain wanted to do stuff and I just couldnt' because of my wrist, this time she said my body nor by brain would want too, lol! Spotty poppy is a bit sad because we've had to stop her having cuddles next to us incase she gets used to just jumping up when i'm lying on the sofa. Mind you, my dad bought her a lovely bed with a quilt to lie on so she's hardly hard done by!!!! Now why aren't I a spoilt spotty puppy!!! xx
