  • Hi all (and :hello: newbies)

    Can I come back and play at being organised, please? Have been MIA for ages, and haven't kept up with the thread and boy does it show.... Have missed you all tho' x

    Have just come back from holiday and now seems a good time for a shake up - had a great time in Zante but managed to tear a muscle in my leg on the 2nd day which put the mokkers on any dancing/walking/exercise but not eating so I managed to put on 9lbs in a fortnight:eek::o

    Still can't exercise much but i'm on the mend, as long as I take things slowly.

    Right, having a 10 min break between HHC's.....managed to complete everything on today's list except tackling the understair cupboard.....it will need an HHC of it's own (not so messy but need to get right to the back to get the boxes and that will need some mountaineering gear as its a big cupboard lol!).
    Back to it I go, so understair cupboard box/wool sorting and also need to hang up a load of washing. WM is on again as livingroom rugs really needed a wash. Also think DS's nappy is calling (whiffy lol).

    Had a good morning, kids were actually keen to help :T. They managed to fight over who did what bit of polishing. They are currently taking toys upstairs and moaning about whose is whose :rotfl:.

    I seem to be getting jobs half done IYSWIM - so nothing major to report. With this in mind I would like to invite all flypeople to join me in a pre-luncheon HHC at 12:00
