Pigpen=glad things are going well with OH. I am not jealous. I am not jealous
I'm seriously impressed by how well you're doing with the kitchen :T:T You don't need to be jealous of Pigpen - in fact, if you're not careful there'll be a flylady or two wondering whether they can trade their OH's in for you now you're so good at DIY
You're obviously very determined and very resourceful. Congratulations!0 -

no you won't you'll hop up and down with pride that you have done your tidying and we still have loads to do.. namely me.. cos I've done next to nothing cos I am a slob!! You work hard at the lists.. and noone begrudges you the pride you have in completeing them.. apart from me.. I am green with envy but then that isn't just you, I am the same with everyone who can manage a whole list without trailing off after some pretty or a shiny or just watching the clouds...... ooh... a penny.....
You can't keep anything to yourself on this thread.. unless you are me and then you get slightly questionable comments which I refuse to elaborate on lol..
And that goes for everyone else too... by royal decree!!

Evening all
Please all stop being down, it makes me have a complex and I worry I've said something to upset people as I really do suffer with foot in mouth syndrome!
Can we just go back to being pleased at what we have done, celebrating and having a good old moan when life gets in the way of us flying?
I've not had a hope of doing much today but did mop my floor and do 2 washes.
I had one of my closest friends over and chewed the fat and then sat in the freezing autumn like weather watching the cricket for 3 hours but in the company of lovely people. So do I care that the house is a tip? No of course not for life is for living and having a bit of a laugh. Sharing the ups and the downs with each other, being supportive and making the most of each day.
I'd do the ironing now but I can get in the living room as it has been turned into a table tennis arena.

Have done quite a bit on the allotment since I last posted but then it looked like rain so we had to come home. Since then I have done bogger all I'm afraid so Cbaitis has sunk in. :eek: Now watching New Romantics which is great!Cross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0

One wet floor!!!!:rolleyes: Oh well. Clean knickers on and we'll keep on trying.
Oh the joys of potty training!! I resorted to a touch of bribery and it worked. Would like to point out that my son was dry through the day for over 6 months but would not ever poo in the potty. He would however poo in his pants or on the floor :eek:. Got very bored with cleaning up poo so told him if he was clever and managed to poo in his potty I would buy him a fireman sam toy and guess what ......... no more poos in pants or on floor.
We just need to get dry through the night now but as hes only young I am not going to worry about that yet!
As for flying I have now completed Monday and Tuesdays lists so 2 stars please and I have also decluttered out training room in work so feeling very happy with my little self (ok so I am not so little but hey ho)
Now I can only hope that tomorrow is bathroom cos I have done loads in there today aswell.
Is it up yet?? *wanders off to see if it can be found*Emma :dance:

Evening all,
I lost internet and phone connection earlier as we were having a new phone line in the street, noone thought to tell us :rolleyes:.
I did finish sorting Ds2's toys :j it only took 4 1/2 hours :eek: . I've got 6 black bags of stuff to go to the car boot sale, 2 black bags of rubbish and my recycle bin is full. I now have 5 empty toy boxes and Ds2 has loads more space in his room, so it was worth it.
I hope no one leaves because they feel they either achieve too little or too much. We all have days when we do and days when we don''t. I find when PMT kicks in i do very little.

still haven't done a lot xx0 -
Thanks Greenbee.
In a strange way I am glad that my kitchen fitter was a cowboy as it has made me realise that I CAN do things and that I don't need a man to do them for me. (Although I wouldn't say no :rotfl:) Then thought of doing DS shelves in his bedroom sounds like a breeze:D
I agree with DK about the list being about us being please with what we accomplish. I have been slack recently but need to start getting my ar5e in gear but it isn't as earierdue to the hols at the moment. (have just noticed that DD has been drawing on the wall while I using the jigsaw:mad:)January Grocery 11/3740
