    On a practical side I have a spare slowcooker and I'm sure we can sort some kind of food cookery thang out. I'm on a visit in the afternoon but we could sort something if it'll help.Seriously.

    Morning All

    Well I went to bed at 7.30 last night as I was exhausted! So dodn't do any flying last night but hey.

    Going to Morrissons tonight after work and then I'll attempt to do something when I get in. Its the kids' Christmas parties tomorrow so I need to organise something for them to take. Then it's the Christmas party at school on Friday and the kids have requested that I make banana cake so I'll have to do that tomorrow night as it's the Christmas do on Thursday night so I won't be doing anything then.

    Mudbath - pleased you're at home and resting - are you giving DH pigpen's lists?

    I'm going to do a HHc now before I do the sandwiches for dinner.

    Have a good day all

    Johanne - good to hear from you!
    G&B - wll done on the glossing. But don't wear yourself out
    Pigpen - the pics - so the purpose of the fire was to help locate all those cobwebs so you could take them all down! Little Peaches looks very like one of my cats and good luck with the head this morning

    Morning everyone. My first full day of Flying, been ages since I did this before, so will start again with baby steps. However I am already up and dressed, as I am a childminder and was supposed to be looking after a little boy from 6.40 this morning, but he hasn't turned up :mad:!! So am going to make an early start on the kitchen and have already put a load of washing in. This afternoon I am taking my little boy to a Christmas party, then going to get my hair cut, so need to get everything I want done this morning.

    Tuesday - no laughing.. KITCHEN!!
    Level one
    Wipe the soot off the cupboards and appliances!
    Level Two
    Wipe the soot off the light fittings and window sills
    Wipe the soot from in the fridge!

    Level Three
    Remove the sooty webs and dusty corners!
    If you still have one... clean the cooker and hob!
    Extras
    1. Empty a wash basket of smokey laundry..
    2. HHI
    n.b. please feel free to substitute sooty/smokey for filthy/sticky/smelly/etc

    What does HHI stand for? I am also going to:
    1. Finish polishing living room (I started yesterday and only a couple of bits left to do)
    2. Hoover living room floor (mostly because my little boy got biscuit crumbs all over it!)
    3. Feed rabbits
    4. Put stuff up in attic which I sorted out yesterday
    5. Wrap last few presents (mostly done now!)

    Remebering only 15 mins at a time, I love that bit of flylady, makes me feel more positive about doing stuff!!
