rose - my love, take it easy for goodness sake. Just remember your with lovely caring people who will understand what you are going through. Your NOT supper woman unfortunately, none of us are!! :rotfl:
God I feel like a stalker as the last couple of posts have all been from me!! :rotfl::rotfl:

Oooh, forgot to say my darling darling DS1 is about an hour away, he's based in Munchengladbach and has driven all the way from there to here, we are near Leeds, he's been up nearly 40 hours now as was on shift last night, if you remember he's in the army. Got 10 days and then going to cyprus :j:j

Lol Carlsberggal, you are our official person to tell us to take it easy! I just posted my list to show what I have done, not what I’m going to do! Don’t worry, I won’t be doing any more flying this week, I want to enjoy tomorrow as much as possible. You are sweet and you are quite right, there will be plenty of people keeping an eye on me tomorrow. I'm really pleased to hear about your DS being home, enjoy your time with him. Please moan as much as you like about the estate agents, we all need to vent and here is a nice safe place to do so

Rosep - I had wondered about the dressing up at JW conventions. When they come here everyone is dressed up in pretty skirts and shirts and dresses and the blokes are all in suits. Even the children seem to be in their 'Sunday Best'. From what you've just said they do that on purpose. It's nice to see.

Our gatherings, small and large, are part of our worship to God, so we dress nice to bring honour to him - nice that you have noticed. I love the chance to look extra nice!

Hugs Tooch, it’s horrible isn’t it

Jinky, what a lovely reason to buy new clothes, losing weight!

Pigpen, I would really like to do another challenge next week as I have lots of niggly jobs to do and have really enjoyed tackling some of them this week and getting my hearts

Right.. looking at that I need to order Jacobs mattress, slop over the kitchen, do a shopping list for tomorrow and fold the washing tonight... I want to get a pile of ebay stuff photographed ready to list over the next week or so.. I can do that between falling asleep, appointments and meetings!!

ok, so I can't get all that done.. I am just too exhausted!!

Shopping list is done.. though I'll probably add another 100 things before DD1 gets to the shop!!

just off to measure and order a mattress... then I'll do ebay pics..

Hi ladies

My apologies for yet again not keeping up (its getting a bit boring now my excuses as my old teacher would say!)

I have a list of jobs as long as my arm to do, what with the no longer much of a secret event, DS's birthday next Saturday, caravan hols the week after, then the Spain hols/wedding in 6 weeks :eek: and the French student here, flying seems an impossibility.

I have been soooo tired and have only managed to do 2 of my personal list :rolleyes:. Hopefully will manage a little flying on Sunday to make the house looks presentable on the surface if nothing else.

My 5 extras this week will be
Sort out the baskets above the door in cloakroom
Sort out baskets in shelf in utility
Sort out the dog shelf in the utility
Make lunches the night before for my 2 and the french student S,M[STRIKE],T,W,Th[/STRIKE] CLAIM SECOND SMILEY PLEASE TOOTS
Iron work/schoolwear the night before for me and DD S,M,T,W,Th All done as ironed everything for the week on Sunday evening - CLAIM ONE SPECIAL SMILEY PLEASE TOOTS

Hope everyone is ok and I will try and catch up soon
