    I'm seriously thinking about washing the bathroom floor this morning before work, just so I can try to sneak in my 4th star before mudbath:p How sad is that? :confused:

    If she hasn't finished by the time I've done my work reading, I might just do it... :rolleyes:

    Have any of you set up your email on Outlook?
    I do have the instructions printed out, but being a feartie I want to be sure it is straightforward.

    And yes it is flying - if I have to open up Outlook to check my mail then I will use the calendar to keep me organised. As it is I set it up then forget to open it when I switch on the 'puter in the morning. :o

    Morning All

    Not sure what's on the agenda today but will be going out somewhere with the kids! Going to make a start on the bathroom now I think - well after I've sorted the kids' breakfast out.

    HHC 8.15 - 8.45 anyone?

    Toots (and Greenbee) - I have finished todays list! A lucky guess by me as I did the BR last night, and my desk yesterday afternoon.

    Work this morning (yawn) so just nagging the boys to get dressed. Still plenty to do this afternoon unfortunately.

  • morning all, need to get out early this morning as poor DH had an awful night with broken rib and hernia pains - thank goodness op is tomorrow just hope they can do something about the rib.

    I have already done HHI and just off to have shower. WE are popping to my mums today but i have 2 bathrooms which are tiny tiny tiny so i hope to get those done. My study is on my list of things to do so great that it is on here. The essay hurricane is still there so loads of stuff to put away.

    Have a great day everyone

    Oh and mumoftwo - my friend liked that song by Beyone (what was her band called) that went 'you thought i'd be weak without you but i'm stronger' all the way through stuff like that about a breakup - very empowering i think!! have a listen

    bye all x
