    Just a quick post to say, I'm in. Thanks for the lists Pigpen, and for keeping us all on track with the stars and all your encouragement Toots.

    Valli, anytime babes, and fwiw, I think you're 100% right. ;)

    Frodders thanks hun! :D

    Quillion huge hugs angel. Hope things pick up for your friend really quickly.

    Right, I'm off to bed. Hopefully I'm going to have a calmer week this week... however, famous last words and all that!

    Night all :wave:

    I've had my soak in the bath and am about to cover myself in oil again (it is working... my skin is lovely and soft, and I'm definitely getting a tan!).

    Before I go to bed, I meant to say well done to rosepink on her step count. My challenge from work this week is to beat the previous day's step count each day - feel free to join me if you want. Even increasing by a single step helps you get your average up... I guess there'll be the odd day when I'll be rushing around just before bed time while cleaning my teeth in order to meet my target!

    Has anyone seen flower recently? She's been very quiet...

    See you all tomorrow...
  • right ~I am off to bed now - but it is so warm again not sure how much sleep I will get!

    Morning All

    I've got a fairly easy day today at work - meeting first lesson then visiting a special school this afternoon - so that's good however AF is here and I'm knackered so I'm not holding out a lot of hope to me being full of energy this evening!

    I still have no ironing to do for the first time ever as I have been ironing it as soon as it's dry so I think I'll probably make that my macaw - to do ironing straightaway!

    Right I'm going to make a start on my settee - that's the first thing on my list I think - and even if it isn't it's the first thing I'm doing! I'll do a HHC on it from 6 - 6.30.

    Have a good day all

    Hi all....I'm going to try to be in again this week. Need to get myself into a routine again now that my relatives have returned to the UK.
    So far today I've blitzed the kitchen...just the floors to do.
    got to go and get dinner started and then going to tackle the HUGH pile of ironing.
    The kids are off this week from school so going to give them a few jobs to do as well.
    Have a good week everyone xxx
