    Part of the Furniture 1,000 Posts Photogenic I've been Money Tipped!
    I've been reading but can't remember anything I want to say so appropriate vibes/hugs etc :o

    Just sitting down with my various planners/calenders (including DD's one that she swiped of me for her room as she loves the kitten/puppies more than the Winnie The Pooh one that she was going to have up :rolleyes: ) to write all the birthdays etc in them. I may be some time.... 5 to update with all the info - fortunately 1 is more or less done I think and only 1 other needs all of ex's family birthdays put on it so that should save me a few hours ;):rotfl::rotfl:

    Off I go.... :wave:

    greenbee you have a few less now - you are all over the place - it will be a tough job getting all your posts found!!! LOL
    toots xx


    I'm a bit all over the place too - and not just with my posts :rolleyes: I don't often see any other flyladies or OJK on other threads but, if I do, I'll do a 'thanks'!

    Why are my hands warmer now than they were 3 hours ago :confused: but my nose is still cold?!!

    I'm going to read the paper and get my school paperwork ready for doing tomorrow. As there's no MOTD to watch tonight, I'll have an early night with my book and get up earlier tomorrow. That way, I should be able to get up for work (judging by today, I'll need an extra 20 mins to de-ice the car at that time in the morning :mad: ).
