    Woo hoo - piggers! Ironic it will be on the front of your local paper!!

    I hope they are out in force when you get yours!! They can do a two page spread on you, as you'll be able to say you also went through a divorce and redid your house and kept it ammaculate fly-lady style of course! And show your stupid ex and anyone else who annoys you (include horrible SW) how fabulous you, your house, and all your kids, including DS1's GF and jacob are. I can just see you all now smiling brightly and proudly from the front page with your home laid out show-home-stylee in the background!!

    xx

    OH's can be right pains sometimes can't they ?
    I'd get the hoover out and stand taking ages to hoover round the floor beside the sofa......can you not suggest he go out and do something (eg send him to the shops for something), then even if you are in cleaning yourself, at least you will get some time away from him ? Put on your favourite music and dance round the room with a duster in your hand ?
    Hugs. Right really better move ma bum and sorry folks for the chatter!

    Pilates done, rather half heartedly I must say as I'm really tired.

    Time to get DS3 from school and then I think a cuppa and some chocolate.

    Remembered half way through an exercise that DS1 has cricket tonight.

    Afternoon all!
    I'd like to distribute some hugs to all of you; forgotten birthdays (this happened to me this year too, gsysezz), bereavement, SWs, and to everyone for being so inspirational!

    I can't even remember what I managed last night; there was some washing up, definitely some vacuuming, some microfibre clothing and some Stardrops - so probably half a star in there somewhere?

    I've been battling with pension forms all morning and just now delivered clean laundry to elderly rellie and did a little shop (and posted the dratted forms!) and now I'm shattered. I decluttered LR floor and surfaces yesterday so will try to vac and polish after a :coffee: and a sit down. Have to put the bins out today too, I'll manage that if I don't manage anything else. Hoping to catch up tomorrow which is a free day apart from haircut in the afternoon.

    Chunky - your dd looks lovely

    Positive vibes and thoughts to anyone in need; back later :cool:
    ... don't throw the string away. You always need string! :D

    My hoover has given up on life!! But I have managed to locate another one on freecycle so am off out again to pick that up!

    Will take another ebay parcel off to the post office!!!

    Quick question....how do you transfer the funds from your paypal account to your bank account? Ive never tried it before, is it pretty straight forward?

    I have about £140 sitting in limbo......
