    organized home print outs - under the planner you want to print, there is a link in tiny writing which says 'printable version.' Click on this and it will give a printable version.
    thanks SSL - that is what i am doing - I thought I had better check before I posted again and ...nothing - it prints 'page 1 of 1' at the top and the webaddress at the bottom - nothing else and I have tried all sorts of different pages!:confused::confused::confused:
    grateful - you run WM or DW on the hottest wash with soda crystals and white vibegar - no clothes or dihses but you could put cleaning cloths in the WM

    soappie - have you stopped grinning and cuddling BB yet? I think i would need a transalator!!!!

    well done to everybody today - lots of flying being done!!!:T :T

    and still NO BABY:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Evening all - eventually!
    Welcome Lola and Shazba

    Rice - I lob some in a saucepan. I cover it with cold water so that it about twice the volume of water to rice. I put the lid on. I bring it to the boil. I let it boil/simmer for about five minutes. Then turn the gas off. I let it be for about 10 more minutes without even lifting the saucepan lid to look at it. It's lovely. I use a basmati rice which is really tasty. This method works brilliantly.

    Mozzy - hugs - have you worked out what's really stressing you?
    Mummy2mygirls - have you tried a good hot curry and raspberry leaf tea?
    Dusty - re Nan's stuff - sometimes you need to box things up and hang on to them. That's OK. As long as it's not TOO much! Oh and happy birthday to DS2 - is it today?
    Triker - glad you're 'done' Hope the 'doneness' isn't too painful.
    Rosepink - hugs. Have you thought about walking with an mp3 player or something playing music and listening whilst you walk? It might help you stay a bit calmer. And why would you worry about what the people chatting would say about you? Just think. If you had gone past them, then returned a few minutes later, what would they say? Whatever they said to each other means nothing. As long as YOU are okay with your god (or whatever) that's all that matters.
    HellsBells - you're doing great there!
    83Rach - good news about the keys!
    Hex - that's brilliant about Brave Chicken!
    Lady-L - the car bill...:eek:
    Sexy - fingers and everything else crossed for the interview tomorrow
    Toots and xxJoxx - enjoy your meet tomorrow!

    I am late because I went to NN next door to agree to book our holiday on the Isle of Wight :D

    I am also late because I've had to do an invoice, my VAT return and pay the tax man an awful lot of money. (It's the end of the month and the financial year!)

    Am unlikely to be able to fly in my bedroom this evening. I have spent most of the day at work helping reorganise the office I'm in. This involved shifting all sorts of office furniture around so I'm quite pooped.

    I did, in good flylady style, make sure the early morning cleaner left me a couple of dusters and some spray stuff so I have truly bottomed out the office. Every desk, monitor, PC, shelf and windowledge has be dusted and polished by me. I think that in itself deserves an extra star.

    I am so glad I'm off tomorrow.

    OOOHH, SSL what housework organizers, I didn' see them, please tell me more, I need a timetable of some sort(could do it myself, I suppose, but need inspiration, IYSWIM)

    me too please

    my plan for the next hr or so is to wright out recipe ideas i have seen on here ready for the new house. i told/threatened the kids that i am going to make everything from scratch from the day we move because there isnt a supermarket where we are moving to and i am not spending money going all the way to either dunfermline or kirkcaldy to buy cheap over rated pre packaged food.


    they didnt like it much but if they dont like it then they should learn to cook lol

    All caught up!

    greenbee - I woke several times in the night but did go back to sleep quite easily for a change. Hope you got some of the wake up vibes!

    Triker - hugs; hope you're ok

    lola and shazba - welcome (to the madhouse!!)

    mozzy - I only have 10 children in my class and 2 sets of parents made other appts so a total attendance of 6 out of 10 is pretty good! And lil_me, it wasn't near any of their reviews!

    sexymouse - hope your mum is ok; and lots of luck for tomorrow

    rosepink - well done for trying; baby steps remember!

    hex - hugs

    soappie - obviously, coming from Pompey, I is dead posh in't it :p And mines a pint ;)

    Right! I am thinking of reading the paper and vegging on the sofa :D
