Well done SS... hopefully your new storage will make it easier to stick to the budget in the long term!

I just thought I'd mention that when I got in tonight and saw the size of the thread :eek: I thought you'd all started chatting again . I'm seriously impressed with the amount of work that's been done:T , and there's no way it would have been done without having the satisfaction of posting or the support and encouragement of the rest of the gang... which is what the thread is for:T !

I know some people can't keep up, as they have lots on, so assume most of the posts are chat, but I think if they did had time to read they'd realise that 99% of posts are on-topic (and flying's a broad topic... it covers decluttering and organisation in every aspect of life after all... even down to managing family and friends, it's not just housework!).

You all deserve a BIG round of applause:T /bar of chocolate:T /glass of wine:T (and could you come round to mine sometime when I'm out at work and do my stuff too ). You're all wonderful :A and need to remember that:A .

Right... off to bed before I get emotional... haven't had a drink for over a week, I think it's getting to me :rotfl:

Well said Greenbee :T I havent time to read all the posts, wish I did as I so enjoy it and gives me so much enthusiasm seeing how well you all are doing and encourages me to get cracking with my own house !

Have managed to check the list and thanks Pigpen my sofa is a disgrace and it will be thanking you for including scrubbing it in your list, will do that after my run:eek: see you all tomorrow if I can crawl to my laptop:rotfl: :rotfl:

Hello and hugs to everyone - it takes longer to read this thread than do the flying:rotfl:

Okay so day 1 of the new me done - kitchen is spotless which is a first and i have reclaimed the worksurfaces:j . So tonight i have
1) made bread
2) made cookies - omg just realised still in oven 20 mins later (runs off to rescue cookies - don't look to brown phew!!!)
3) cleaned all kitchen surfaces and small appliances
4) decluttered kitchen
5)cleaned kitchen floor
6) put out breakfast things
7) ironed uniforms for the morning
8) piled washing for DD's to put away tomorrow (normally it sits in a heap in LR for weeks until its worn again)

Wow that is the most i have ever done on a work day!!! The kitchen is fantastic - still some decluttering to do and cupboards to clean out but don't want to wear myself out on first day!! :rotfl:

Not sure list will be as long tomorrow as we have a lounge/ dinner that is used as TV/playroom/junk room/office/dining room and it is full of stuff (especially DS 3 toys that seem to be multipying) so 2morrow i start an ebay box - i will get in control.

See you all tomorrow am going off now to watch my recorded 24 as i was too busy in the kitchen to watch it !!!

Evening all

Not had chance to catch up much, doubt I will tomorrow either.

I've not managed a great deal flying wise today as had to go get DS2s presents, managed to sort those, he wants them after school (thought he was getting out of school, erm no!) Tomorrow my baby is 8 I feel old. We need to somehow get boys of to school, collect caravan and get it the 20 ish miles away (after collecting it from storage) for service by 10am.....going to be a manic morning! (Expensive too as needs service, brakes sorting and tyres.....)Not done much studying either, a little less than planned. Did also have a meeting tonight but that went well so some positives. Got a couple of washer loads rattled off aswell.

((hugs for those who need/would like)) and tia I am so pleased you got that second opinion, now if you're going to be early (and he/she is due 31st Aug) my birthday is the 21st and I don't mind sharing

Hopefully catch up with you all at some point tomorrow x
