    Hi, can I please join in too? Would like to give this a go - have done my own version of FL on and off over the years but maybe the companionship/competition/encouragement here will help me get on with it better. I'm only going for the Level 1 stuff today, because although the master bedroom sheets were changed yesterday (and therefore I can already strike that off the list), the rest of the room is, erm, in need of attention. It's a big room, and as a result it often ends up filled with bits and pieces that have nowhere else to go.

    Morning all

    As an Easter pressie for my sis, I've loaned myself for a day of full-on flying - she will freely admit her house is the original CHAOS site and we're all trooping round on Sunday for lunch so I'm off with stardrops, my household box and my duster in hand to help backhoe all the carp *grin* - plan of attack today is to change around all of the bedrooms as we're moving my niece into a bigger room so I may drown under a sea of toys and clothes

    Have a good flying day all (sorry to hear about your chooks Triker)

    I'm going in.........................................
    I'd rather be watching CSI!

    Nice to see some of the old faces back who've been missing in action recently! :hello:Hi DeniseNZ, loki, and scaredycat.

    Welcome to all of the new faces too!

    I'm off to get dressed and wash my hair before hanging out the washing, as the weather forecast said that this will be the last sunny day here for a while. Will catch up with you all this afternoon I expect. I think that I'm going to walk into town to meet LadyLiberty as the weather is nice - it's a half hour walk along our lovely canal, and it'll make up for me not going to the gym this morning. Will have to get a wriggle on though as we're meeting up at 11.

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
