I've surpassed myself and hoovered the landing and done all of DS3 room, pulled everything out, dusted skirting/picture rails, cleaned window the lot.
Tomorrow is another day of tennis for DS2 and it is my turn to take him and his friend, promised them lunch in the sports cafe there as they have been so good and I'll have DS3 with me. DS1 has golf all day.
Flying plan will be to do the landing and maybe master bedroom - I did it thoroughly last week so it will be a shortened version.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Natty hugs sweetie and you Triker, poor flyladies I've never known so many poorly onesThe birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0

Well dd is at nursery tomorrow so should be able to do the rest of the bits and i have done the kids rooms today so ahead of myself there I hope.
Triker and Rosepink I forgot to mention you two poorlies before my curry came (which was very nice as was the bottle of wine which we shared hic) big hugs to you both and no more cleaning until you are feeling better but I can relate to the clean sheets thing Triker. I actually get excited about going to bed when I have changed the sheets:o

Pigpen ta for offer but I'm not much company plus I'm worried in case it's infectious whatever I've got.
Valli really sorry about the job, I hope something spectacular appears for you soon.
Jo thats awful news, I really don't know what to suggest, sorry, wish I could be more help.
Thanks to everyone for your kind thoughts and wishes, I'm getting really FED UP of feeling rotten so summat's amiss. Doc appt for next tuesday, until then I will attempt to put a smile on my face (maybe a grimace) and a skip in my step (as if kicking something) and get on.
Hope all the poorlies get better soon.
Much love to you all, your very out of sorts flylady Triker..xxxDFW Nerd 267. DEBT FREE 11.06.08
