    Hiya everybody... I'm woefully behind again.... but ...

    I saw a call out for a Birmingham Flylady to store a couple of bin bags for a few days????? I can do that, no problem.

    I'm so far behind with the thread, so someone PM me if you need me to help?

    See you all later

    Nearly done, just having a cuppa before mopping the floors.

    Morphed some over ripe bananas into a loaf - might let the kids eat it or freeze it for DS2 cake sale which is in a couple of weeks.

    MOJ2 are you going somewhere nice tonight?

    Yes please AnW'sMum if no-one else has claimed it........anything gratefully accepted to stop my boredom :T

    I am on the flyladies xmas card list........if you havn't got that, let me know & I'll PM my details.
    Thanks xxx

    Gotcha ;) will see if there are any more books that I have finished as well.

    Toots I've done more ironing :D:D:D

    Also swapped WM contents into TD, cleared half the stairs and hoovered them. The stairs twist back on themselves hence only doing half! Who knows I might even do the rest when I get back from the school run! Reckon I have completed a few more dots of my puzzle lol

    Afternoon everyone.

    I've managed two clients today, walked the dogs, washing machine x 2000 (or so it seems), cleaned the floors downstairs but they need doing again due to rain/dog, sorted out some accounts and that's about it.

    I really need to remember to put a repeat prescription in tomorrow otherwise i'll be having hot flushes all over the place. Mind you, it's so cold maybe that wouldn't be a bad thing!!

    DS starts at cubs tonight but before that they both have friends home for tea. Mmmm, wonder if i've got anything to feed them! Better go and have a look.

    Hugs to everyone and hope you're not doing too much xx

    Hi everyone :hello:


    I've just tape up most of the doors in the house AND I cleaned out the walk in cupboard at the front door, result! :T :T :j :j :T :T just need to wash the window. Someone was asking about window cleaning earlier. I'd love to know how to wash the top half of my windows without taking my life into my own hands! The old sash windows have been replaced with PVC and only the bottom half opens, to wash the outside you need to sit on the sil and reach up with a long armed cloth not good with the main road under you and being as high up as I am! If I tried to do them from the outside I'd need a firemans ladder/cherry picker and a harness:rotfl: :rotfl: Any suggestions?
    I'm not doing any more housework today as I will be at it all day tomorrow no doubt.
    DHL is picking up Ebay stuff tomorrow so that will be out of my way too. Must go now and declutter a cuppa and a fag.
    I'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged
