    hello all you lovely hardworking flyladies

    sorry that you have been concerned about me - I am okish - just struggling with the tiredness - if I do anything in the morning then I am useless for the rest of the day - my muscles are so bad that I cant keep my eyelids open after teatime!!!

    I have managed to keep up with your stars up to last night but have 10 pages of news to catch up on - I will get there!

    I had toxic for an hour and an half this morning and thenhad had the lovely Rev Ann this afternoon and we had a right giggle picking music for my funeral service!! I have to narrow it down to 4 - at the moment I have about 14!!!!

    I am going to do stars just now and will try to do a little bit pf catching up later. There is nothing on tomorrow morning so I will be around to keep an eye on you all

    love and hugs for now
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine

    Triker you should be published, seriously that is gorgeous :)

    Aww thank you, you've made me feel all fuzzy, it was just something I made up for Valli as she mentioned it was Poetry Day. :D x

    Been shopping, got some more vitamins.

    DD1 is decorating the front room.

    I'm going to get on with clearing our bedroom.

    I've just gone to start on the bathroom and the minging mildew is back so I've just sprayed everywhere and will have to wash everything (including the ceiling!) down shortly. Does anyone have a foolproof way of getting rid of it once and for all?

    Can you let me know too please? :D

    I have floor to ceiling tiles, so the walls are fine, but the roof has started getting black spots...... when its 'bathroom week' for me this will be one of the jobs that need doing.

    A permanent solution would be great!

    I have done my good deed for the day and rung one of my relatives I haven't spoken to for ages, she never rings me but moans at my sister if I don't call :eek: I will be in her good books for a while now. I have one more relative call to make, I don't know why I put off doing it.
    I have also made a present inventory ready to raid the present cupboard tomorrow to see who can have what.

    Me too. When we re-decorated a few years ago we made sure we used bathroom paint but there are awful yellow/black spots.

    Hi, Just a quick visit to say DH and I are still poorly. No flying at all today. I have to go out to a course tonight. I think I will just sit quietly at the back.

    Hugs Toots, Take it easy tonight and we will see you back here tomorrow. I love choosing hymns. I know which ones I want for my funeral and have written them down for my family. I don't have a reason to, but just felt the need. I wish my dad chose his in advance as there were nine of us deciding. Everyone had their own idea of which ones he would have liked.
