    Hmm damp and drizzly here today in Norfolk...talking of which there seems to be an increasing number of east anglian peeps around? Are we going to try and do our Eastern meet up? I'm happy to go anywhere in the region I can get to on public transport :D

    Last two bits of washing dry and put away now. Dinner eaten, washed up and cleared away. Sweet and sour - it was nice but the house is a bit smelly so I've lit (lighted?) a candle now :)

    Its confirmed - I utterly SUCK at flying if I dont post...... I fly, and I follow the list - but if I don't score off the list and come back and tell you what Ive done, I dont know where I am, jobs get half-finished, or not done at all!

    I need the list and I need you guys to kick me into doing it!!!!! (thanks for all the messages!) :D

    Ive also been busy sunning myself during half term and every weekend, so the upside of that is my garden and my tan are both lovely :DMy house is decent - and tidy(ish) but not up to my usual flylady standard to which I have become accustomed, Oh - and my ironing pile is HUUUUUUUGGEE! :rolleyes:

    I have struggled to fly in the evening since I have been back at work, and have got back into leaving everything till the weekend.......which was fine this weekend cos it was raining, so I did fly. But as soon as the sun's out, I hate being in the house! Ive asked work if I can go part time and they have agreed, so hopefully that will make things a bit easier.

    Anyway, I havent seen my sister for months and she is coming down over to see me on Wednesday!!! So I will fly until then and then may disappear again and will be laying face down in a puddle of white wine somewhere, but will try to fly until then!

    Love n hugs to all.

    PS LL - I had a look at your facebook for the pics of your new puddycats - but I couldnt find them - am I looking in the right place?? x x

    Jo, glad you are able to work part time now, and that your sister is coming. We will soon whip you into shape again with the flying. Nice to see you posting again

    Lady Liberty - did you see my earlier post about the Jeremy Vine show? It was incredibly positive - lots of stories of those who were told the prognosis was poor but have beaten their illnesses - especially liked the one of the man with cancer all over his lymph system as that made me think of you. If you didn't hear it and want to, it will be on the BBC Iplayer.

    I'm going for a nap now - when I get up I need to start thinking about food and get all DHs receipts into date order. That will be my task for the day re his accounts. Oh, and of course wash up and do the kitchen window sill so I can get as star!

    Hello

    I was off sick today, bad tummy so have only just woken up (feel soooooooooo guilty).

    I will have a go at the list - I did find last week really helpful but I didnt quite know when to stop, if you see what I mean!

    Hope everyone is ok

    If you wait for perfect conditions, nothing would ever get done! :T
    I'm not short - I'm condensed awesome! :p
