Morning
Happy Birthday Sexy and also to embb's DS hope you both have great days. Good luck at school as well sexy, I know you will already be there so keeping my fingers crossed.
I'm in for HHC pen penOfficial Mascot and Chief Cheerleader for the 'Mortgage Free in Three' Gang0 -
Happy Birthday Sexymouse. I hope the interview is fun and the class enjoy your session on flowers
Rach - congratulations on your escape, and well done on being objective in your exit interview, tempting as it might have been to put the boot in:D Enjoy your break
soappie - it's lovely and sunny here!
penpen - I went to the gym this morning, and that was quite warm enough (I have to say, I didn't actually notice the aircon doing anything at all!)
julie - hope your DD is OK. It's difficult when schools do this as so many children have both parents working - I'm sure she isn't the only person who won't have anyone going in.
embb - have I missed something? Last I heard you were turning your outhouse into a utility room... what's with the wall coming down!!!
Right... need to strip my bed, get the sheets in the WM, change into shorts (my legs practically glow in the dark, which won't be a good look with my turquoise silk dress for the wedding... I need them to go as brown as my arms!), mow the lawn, update my step count in my signature (hopefully it will motivate the other walkers), email my ex who has just got in touch because he's heard my job is at risk (this is good news, he's fantastic at CVs, and likely to be in a position to help me out - we get on fine, but he's useless at staying in touch, which was pretty much the problem when we were together!), walk to the shop for a few bits and then make a start on the flying... downstairs and the spare room need to be done by 4pm when a friend is coming over for a walk...0 -

I stopped counting and refused to go back through the bag to recount as I would have wanted to take things out again!!! Which would have completely defeated the point. :rotfl: But I am sure there are more than 100 things......if not, its not far off it.
In my main make up/lotion/potion drawer I also found about 20 pens/pencils/highlighters, 4 purses, a few small toys and a bottle of disappearing inkIm not sure where that came from.....maybe I was hoping I could make my wrinkles or cellulite disappear. I also found chargers and handsfree kits for phones I dont even own anymore.
There are lots of body lotions, which came as part of perfume sets, which I havent used, so Im going to list those on Ebay........every little helps.
I did also find a few lottery tickets which Ive never checked! You never know, I could be a millionaire and not know it!!! But I wont hold my breath! :rolleyes:Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying
