  • Can't remember who mentioned hanging out the washing in her nightie, but when I was more mobile I used to regularly put boots and a coat over my pjs and go and buy the Sunday papers! giggle.gif



    Me ;) Are you from Liverpool MSD? I have never seen so many women in their pjs out and about at the shops. And I'm not talking about boots and coats on. Just pjs and slippers :D

    Morning all

    Greenbee - hope you have a lovely flight and a great time across the pond.
    ditto that - a real flying flylady!

    well the cold that DD had last week has hit DS and me but he, of course, is more ill than I am:rolleyes:;).
    So I am taking it easy on the exercise front - hence I am missing on the Wii thread. My throat is VERY sore and *cof* I have - erm -phlegm.:o

    But lots to do so I must crack on. All windows upstairs open to blow the nasty bugs away! See you later.

    Valli I hope you feel much better really soon. :) Last time the house felt full of bugs I flung every window wide open, and watched the temperature plummet :eek: However, I felt better for having done it, and I'm sure it cleared the bugs out.

    ETA: ooooooooo I've just noticed my post count :j :j :D

    ETA x 2 : I've got to make that 2,000th post really count :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Not a bad post count SS. I have just noticed that I am not that far behind you

    DS is playing Wii Resort at the moment . Looks so sweet. Only have it for the weekend so I don't mind. Hope the tiler finishes soon. I don't like being stuck in the house. Especially when I can see blue clouds.

    Already figured that I am going to have a lovely roast dinner today-without the roast as I am a veggie-going to cook proper potatoes not frozen roasties. I love my Hob :D Simple pleasures. 10 years ago I would have laughed at being this excite about a hob.

    MOAM - how did you get on with your sale?

    Greenbee - safe journey and enjoy vibes for you

    Mudders - visualizing those stones disappearing for your poor DS

    PenPen - hugs sweetie, not like you not to cope, let us know if we can help in anyway x

    SS
    - well done for staying off the booze. One small glass of wine with dinner for me last night and slept rubbish (not sure if that was why as my neck was sore) so not in a hurry for anymore

    Just polishing off a bottle of prosecco

    Glad you had a good day - that's what I had a glass of last night too.

    Need to do some food shopping today as my fridge and freezer are both pretty empty.

    Is anyone else having problems with LLoyds TSB online banking? I haven't been able to access it for 3 days now.
