    AnWsMum - have a lovely holiday - how nice about the lottery!
    Welcome Cally_C and Lazarus
    Welcome back DeniseNZ - how've you been doing?
    Lil-me - you have a lovely time away too

    Stayed up too late last night watching a Catherine Cookson and am suffering a bit for it this morning. But never mind, traffic should be lighter as it's the Easter holidays.

    I shall to the bedroom when I get home - it'll be easy - I did the bedding on Saturday.

    Have a lovely day people

  • hi everyone hugs to all who need it and happy hols!

    My life (only parts of it) seems to have gone to pot!! THe house is all over the place and all my dieting good will seems to have disappeared to be replaced by an enourmous appetite.:eek:

    So today is my day for a fresh start - I had lost nearly 3 stone but now its just over 2 so time to get back on track - not sure i can lose 2 stone for a wedding in just under 2 weeks :rotfl:but will do my best to lose a few pounds and get a tidy house. so glad it is the master bedroom - mine has become a health hazzard - it doesn't help that dh is still off work sick - still waiting for referral to surgeon and pain specialist and this has been since mid january.

    right off to s&s kitchen before kicking DH out of bed

    happy days everyone :D

    Morning all

    WM emptied and reloaded, Tea cup emptied and reloaded.

    Off to the shower in a minute just going to clean the kitchen sink first. Then off to the vet before the kids clothes try on begins.

    Sunnygirl - Well done to your DD and to you and your DH. It is great when they copy positive behaviour

    AnW'sMum - have a wonderful holiday and I'm so happy that Daddy managed to send the pocket money.

    Morning folks

    Hi to the newbie flyladies

    Glad everyone seems to have had a good weekend.

    I am going to clear out the cupboard under the stairs yet again, it seems to be a general dumping ground in this house for my OH.

    My car is in the village, so first things first, Im going for a run into the village and then will drive my car back......wish me luck :D

    I need to make an appointment for the docs this week so will do that whist in the village and then thats something i can cross off my hypothetical list.

    I must actually make a list or Im going to miss something.

    Oh oh oh!! guess what!!! My thanks button now works at home :j:dance::j

    It wouldnt ever work from home before, only at work.....but now it does! Reading back, someone mentioned an 'unthank' button - has that been removed?

    Have a good day all, will come on later for a challenge no doubt xx
