    I'm in again - keeping to level 1 but will do a few bits from the other levels if I have time
  • I'm still in - I LOVE Flylady :D:xmastree:

    Going to keep on flying, my house is so nice these days :) However I am trying to sort out cleaning my old tile floor and have rather embarrassingly just emailed a company - and then realised they specialise in Minton beautiful patterned tiles - oops! :rotfl:

    Hey ho, going to keep on searching and tomorrow I'm going to buy a beautiful feather duster... I am worryingly excited about this :cool:

    no, not yet..

    Johanne.. are you eating properly??? Have you been checked for anaemia? Especially as you are bf.. you could just need some vitamin supplements.. can't be doing with you being all run down now can we?


    Yeah im eating properly or best i can, havent been doctors but might do if dont feel better soon. Had this on and off for years, but when its at its worse like at the moment I feeling absolutely awful and end up sleeping lots and aching head to toe and unable to do much. Its made worse when i do anything too strenuous so like i say friday seems to have really done me in ..... as its not like me but this weekend ive slept in till gone 1pm both days! :o:o:o

    This happened a couple of years ago and they suspected CFS/M.E. after lots of bloodtests etc but although they referred me to hospital i never heard anything and when tried to chase it up with a different GP they said i was being a hypercondriac and that it was just depression and/or laziness so they wouldnt look into it for me..... I'm not saying it IS that cos i know how serious that is and Im nowhere near as bad as people i know with M.E .... maybe it is just exhaustion with pumpkin not sleeping properly and havent really got over being sick at new year when i was in bed for days which also isnt like me....:confused:

    oooh look at my essay there... sorry!

    Off to declutter some toast and a glass of water... as we had an early tea as MIL invited us round for sunday lunch for first time ever!!:eek: :eek: :eek: And so now i need food as had our meal like 4 hours earlier than we usually would and i didnt eat much as eating infront of her makes me nervous! :o

    I'm in... and as it's the kitchen, I should be able to maintain it in the state I've got it into today... which is lucky, as I'm out of the house for over 12 hours...

    Thanks Pigpen!

    WM emptied... towels in TD. Making supper now - butternut squash orzotto (should have started it earlier, so I'm doing the quick method, but even that takes ages!), which will do a couple of meals later in the week as well.

    Off to find list to transfer over long-term stuff and anything I think I might do today :p
