  • Hi,

    Hope everyone is well & welcome newbies/returners. Since my last post I've not done any tidying-up or laundry but I DID do some errands. Goodnight!
  • Well Done Johanne's OH. Really pleased for you both.

    Happy Birthday to Denise. Hope you have a great day.

    Jane130...take it easy. Don't do too much or you'll end up in more pain.

    Soapie..I agree with flyladyflower. Just apply now and you don't have to actually decide until you get to the job offer stage.

    AnW'smum. Well done on giving blood. Unfortunately I'm banned! Giving blood makes me faint. Have gone 3 times and they always get the full amount from me but after that I pass out.:rotfl:

    Think I'll go and check out tomorrow's list.

  • Just want to say a big thank you to everyone here for keeping me motivated, although I do struggle to keep up with the thread.
    YOU GOSSIP TOO MUCH !!
    However, my kitchen & dining room (quarry tile) floors have seen more water in the last few weeks since joining you all than they have in the 2 years previous, so you are all forgiven !!
  • Really need to do DD1's bedroom. I know I've been saying that all week but not got round to it yet. It'll take ages just to tidy enough to see the floor let alone vacuum it! Bedding was done at some unearthly hour the other night (wet bed!) so it doesn't need doing tomorrow!

    DD2's bedroom already done. Anything and everything not nailed down had to be hidden in lockable cupboards because of the move from the cot to the bed so it still lookes immaculate.:j That is apart from the cat's footprints that are on the windowledge from this afternoon.:mad:
