DD has tidied her bedroom - which has involved shoving the pile of nicely ironed clothes into a bag and shoving them in a cupboard - I am not impressed!

Greatfulforhelp i had to sit on the window sill and stretch out to do one side and then stuck my arm through the gap of the wide open window to clean the otherside.It was a bit scary though as i don't like heights!xx

I would never have guessed TAG!!!! well done :T:T- I know what a stickler you used to be regarding your ironoing so the pile must have been driving you mad - it will be back to 15 items as required now???

Umm yes. I think it's about time I got out of this rut I've been stuck in for far to long and start getting back to normal:o

I'm ashamed to say that since I've been having one or two ciggies I've been sleeping much better at night. But I'm not going to beat myself up over it. Better for me to have the sleep at the moment and get my head right first IYSWIM.

I'll concentrate on the giving up properly again when I'm feeling better and when life is a lot less stressed.. I won't be buying any though. I just have a few of Mr Tag's roll up's and in view of the fact I can't roll them very well myself and after 3 they make me feel sick:rolleyes: I hope the giving up for good won't be a problem!!

Serena/Tag - It is Wed 10/Thu 11 or Fri 12 June - then I can be child free, w/end I would have to bring the boys which is just no fun at all for them or for me. £6 for a ticket via Tesco clubcard, although I just googled 'win gardeners world tickets' and entered lots of competitions.

Any of those day's would be good for me. Though prehaps avoid the Friday re traffic on the way home? I'll have a go at entering the competitions as well.

Well done on the Ironing Pile Tag - want me to send you mine???? (please don't throw things at me...:o;):D)

I actually do quite enjoy ironing and would happily do yours:D. Don't know how mine got so out of control this time. I think it was down to months of insomnia!!

So the post holiday blues combined with the money issues are getting me down, I stupidly had a nosy on facebook to see what my friends have been up to while we were away and it has struck me yet again how some people just have no money worries (I know they really dont its not just how it seems) and I find it really hard to deal with sometimes. Does that sound mean and selfish ?

No it doesn't and I know exactly how you feel. But I have found the solution is ....

On a positive note I planted some seeds before we went away and loads have germinated - got 5 little trays of saad leaves seedling, 3 courgette plants, 3 tomato plants (thanks hex for these!). Peppers not appeared yet, maybe it wasnt warm enough for them. But still, how exciting!!

........to do exactly this myself. I'm finding it much more fulfilling to do this than to spend money, which we don't have, on nothing. Mr Tag and I are seriously starting to model ourselves on Tom and Barbara out of The Good Life (sp?) We're toying with getting a couple of chickens as well. Little Bruv has offered to build them a coup/pen.

Oh and my peppers haven't appeared either. Apparently they take ages to come through!

Right that's me all caught up. See I'm being a good flylady today:D. Weather is brightening up outside so I'm off to some washing and tackle the rest of the list.
