    Morning lovelies! :wave:

    Serena thinking of you today x
    Lil_me hope you'll be very happy in your new home xx
    kazmeister lovely wedding pics and you look stunning x

    Car was in for it's MOT yesterday but still haven't got it back :eek: so DS1 is giving me lift to and from work (luckily only 1 job today) no idea how I'm gonna get littley to the Docs taxi most probably, the week has been written off as I've been one big stress-head so no flying to report, done a few dailies though.Not typing much more cause the space bar isn't working properly and it's taking me ages to go back and slam a space in.
  • Sorry don't know how to put a Christmas tree on here. I am new to this and ashamed to say that I don't do housework most of the time. After 6 weeks off with good intentions that were never realised I am now panicking and need to do something on a day to day basis or I really will need Kim & Aggie!!!
    I will join next Monday's thread but not sure I can work out how to add my name to lists etc. for stars but if I succeed I'll find some way of alerting everyone to the fact.
    Just about to plan meals for week before going to school - another of the things I wish I could do better - this is third week of doing this and am becoming quicker and better at it. Striving for success in all matters domestic!!!

  • Good morning ladies! I managed to declutter chair & umbrellas yesterday, was proud I managed to get chair in car without help, a few hairy moments!

    Rosepink the reason I got the (arm)chair stuck in doorway was that I had lots of boxes in bedroom and landing, and could not open door enough.

    It took ages to shift the boxes and semi-slither chair down bannister. The tricky bit was the turn in the stairs where I had to lift chair over the newel post and it nearly fell down the stairs but I managed to grab a leg. My grandson (7) was watching downstairs, and said I was the strongest person he had ever seen lol! I felt very pleased, but have not done anything else. Today is another day and I will start afresh.

    Serena thinking of you today.
