Weekly Flylady Thread 18th May 2009

Valli

just had a massive argument with DSwho has to work out area of a CD less area of a centre bit (hole) I told him to work out the large circle's area then subtract the area of the small cicle...he wanted to subtract the radius of the small from the large then work out the area...aaargh

valli - you're a mum, therefore you really don't know anything.;)(Just about giving up on homework help here...)

I've washed up, that's it. And DS1 was supposed to do it, as I was doing a day's supply that came in this morning - a whole day of art, lovely.

Usual work tomorrow, then I'm on halfterm holiday!! Just booked a day to France on Tuesday, and chilling for the rest, with lots and lots of gardening if the weather is as nice as today.

Everyone who's going away - have a lovely week!!! (Just in case I don't catch you before you leave)

pigpen - lots of get well and coping vibes your way.

Lady-Liberty - more of the same to you too.

toottifrootti - :hello:Look after yourself!!

Just popping in to say "Good Luck" to all those with exams still to do - and that goes to children as well - I hope the stresssful times will soon be over for you all.

I have had a very quiet day - have managed to catch up on all my washing now and most of it was dried outside.
Have done more emails and phone calls and have read last weeks' thread and now I am about half way through this week's.

I did have a nap in the afternoon and I am getting sleepy now so will make a cuppa, check the news and head for bed.

Special thoughts to pigpen - hope you are on the mend and have managed your assignment
and lady-L huge hugs, thoughts, prayers and love to you honey -I hope they get treatment sorted out real soon - keep the chin upxxx

Hugs to all and sleep well vibes for everyone.
Love and hugs
toots xx

Valli

and I forgot to say MANY CONGRATULATIONS to Rach

Serena I DID tell DS many months ago that I would have trouble helping him with his homework as I have forgotten all the o-level (yeah I am THAT old LOL) maths but he asks as he knows I have a brain.
And then we have a CATACLYSMIC row...
still - reminds me why I am not longer married to his STUBBORN dad.

Off to watch Benidorm...

still I have cleaned the living room - cant get a star as Pigpen adds room extensions on - so I'll do them after my FFFFFFFIN inset day (remember I am NOT contracted to work on Thursdays) AND I probably won't get paid as the head has not actually asked me to go in - just having subtle guilt heaped on as there are 'tasks':rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::p:o

greenbee count me in with the vibes.....I have every faith that the 'flypeople' vibes work, they have helped me so much lately.

If our experiment works on Toots, we'll test it out on anyone else who volunteers. I hope that your next appointment is positive and you don't need our help, but if you do, you know we're here.

Toots - it seems like we have lots of volunteers, so can you suggest a time when you'll be home, able to rest but NOT fall asleep (we need you to concentrate too ... you have to work on this treatment too you know ), when plenty of flyladies are likely to be about. I'll dig out some visualisation material which may help everyone concentrate.

I'm trying to find a holiday for end June/early July. I just want something in the UK, not too expensive, that involves yoga and walking.... and all the places that do it seem to close between May & September

rach

evening all

thanks for all the congrats

Busy day at work and another tomorrow (planning to leave at 7.30am when DH leaves for his exam as need some time to get on) and then I can try and come home early. DH's exam didn't go so well today but he thinks he may've scraped enough marks to pass - just! I have every faith in him! I've also been to GB, older ones tonight then got chatting so wasn't home til after 9.

Pretty tired now, still no real flying this week though DH did loads of filing tonight which has piled up whilst he's been studying. I LOVE the fact he's so organised - last night i wanted to check something on my contract and he had it in seconds!!

Good vibes and hugs to all who need them

Came home nd decluttered the fridge of potatoes for Jacket spuds for tea.

DS and i ate our tea then cuddled for awhile.

I sorted the ragsrus collection bag for tomorrow and put ds to bed.

Was going to go myself after a quick s&s in the kitchen when my mate rang an hour later i got off the phone and came back on here to do the stars.

Rose honey your photo's are gorgeous.
