    All week all done please may i have 5 stars please whey hey im back !!!
    I have hovered dusted scrubbed and polished the house / bungalow i have bee looking after. It shines like a new pin and not a dog or cat hair in site.
    It took me all day the floor is all tiled wood effect and was really really dirty i had to empty the mop bucket 6 times.
    I have done it all. Wonder what she will think when she comes next week would love to be a fly on the wall.
    first of all we miss you too xx but What the heck are you doing????? Are you trying to end up in hospital - you maybe allowed to do a little gentle exercise but i am sure you are still meant to be on LIGHT DUTIES!!!!!!!! bad flylady - will sort you out next week:rotfl::rotfl:
    morning aunty crafty - hope the assignment is on track now - I am guessing you are able to email it so you have today as well - good luck - but remember to have breaks to keep your brain fresh - oh and eat too!!
    Yes i was a little bit late last night - but I am working on being in bed by 10.30 every night from now on so you all can nag me if I am still here!!!

    Morning everyone

    (((Hugs))) to those in need. Well i did it again yesterday, posted and ran!..:rotfl:I will try and contribute more... i will :D

    Well i am pleased with myself cos yesterday i cleaned my oven! Yay! Its was in quite a state *note to self.. don't let it get like that again and it wont take so long to clean*

    Been thinking i really, really need to concentrate on decluttering.. especially my bedroom, the local dumping ground for anything that hasn't got a home. So i am going to try and concentrate on that and just do basic flying every where else, then once all the rubbish etc has disappeared i can really get going with the flying and the hopefully have a easy to clean and lovely home. Well thats the plan anyway :think: :rolleyes: :rotfl:

    Going to have a lovely walk in the forest with my sis-in-law this afternoon so that will declutter some of the cobwebs on me.. ;)

    Hope you all have a good day, bye for now.DG
    dragonfly but you are contributing by posting and running as you call it! that is great because it makes you post a list of what you have achieved and we can support you if you are struggling. De-cluttering will definately help but break it down into chunks so that you dont get too disheartened by it. Enjoy your walk - sounds lovely.
    carlsberggal - we dont 'put up' with you - we are here for you angel - remember PMA for at least 48 hours or I will be throwing things at you!!!

    ok thats me off to get organised......... catch you all later - remember we are off line 5-7pm tonight!!!

    have a great day my lovely friends.

    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder

    Good morning all, Happy Birthday, Princess Piper, have a lovely day.

    I am feeling hacked off these last few days.. I take DD to her classes,i buy her treats etc, etc and she has more respect from DSD and OH, who she spends little time with, so have told her there will be no classes or treats if she doesn't stop whinging and start doing as she's told, when she's told!!
    Don't think that is my main problem at the mo, though, my daily routine is boring me and am thinking of finding something to do with myself that fits around the school times....not so easy!!
    Sorry for the little moan, had to get that of fmy chest, it has been building for a while.
    (((HUGS))) for those with real issues, I understand are minor compared to others..........Right pulling self together and doing something productive......uummm, coffee anyone????? xx
