    Hello

    I'm returning to MSE after a period of absence and I want to join in with your cleaning/tidying please!!

    I've found myself without a job since 1st October (long story potentialy going to tribunal) and have been quite lazy, but I want to get some kind of order in place so that I'm not spending a whole day doing everything. A bit a day is the way to go me thinks!

    Now I've got my trigger spray bottle full of water and white vinegar and a micofibre cloth, I'm armed and ready to go!

    Wish me luck on my first day as a flylady follwer!

    :xmastree:Welcome louboutingirl :)
  • Thanks Toots, I've had my meds reajusted, and my morphine has been increased which is making me sick, and sleepy and pants but not in too much pain now which i guess is the idea! I had to have some minor surgery(although it doesnt bloody feel like it:mad:) To take cauterise of the growths as they were bleeding out and my tummy was fillin with blood, and i got really anemic. They haven;t removed them as its a big op and we need to sort out work and school and social service suport before. The treatment seems to be working though, as the scan showed they have shrunk by about 5% My stomach swelled like mad, it was mental! How are you doing? Jaimee asked after you the otherday.

    . Got a friend coming to use the phone to ring Oz in a bit, I have free calls there as part of the phone package.

    Dont know if this will help your friend, it would mean she wouldnt have to come and use your phone. I call my mum in Oz all the while, and i type in this nuber before hand 08448617878 they are called telediscount. You then just type in the oz number and they charge a penny a min. So i could talk to mum for two hours and itd only cost £1.20. Might be worth mentioning this to her. x

    Ive missed you all! and although the lounge looks ok, as does the hall, jase made the kids tidy thier rooms, the kitchen is a pigsty!!! as are the gruby bathrooms!
    Plans are well underway for jaimees birthday/halloween
    Big party on the 24th(Juejim are you still coming?) then we are going to a chinese buffet with our next door neighbour and her two little ones to celebrate jaimees birthday. Halloween eve we are going trick or treating round the close, then to a disco at the local wackywarehouse. We was sposed to be going to shrugbourgh hall but money is tight as, on the sunday we have been invited to go to drayton manor to see the fireworks with my sister, dad and some morefriends and family. We think they would get more from that so we have scrapped Shrug. I've finally got my wheelchair from SS so drayton manor will be fine. was worried i wouldnt be able to go, but happy now cus i can be lazy and get to skip the ques :D hehe(naughty i know but pah)

    That was quite productive, have hoovered the whole place. Amazed how easy it was, the suction is amazing after having cleaned the filter before the holiday. Can't believe the difference it's made! The only downside was that it wanted to hoover up everything, even plastic bags and stuff and I had to keep stopping and retrieving them! There is a pen stuck up the tube which I just can't get out - the problem is that it's a fridge pen so has a magnet on it and it's not budging no matter what I do! It will just have to live there from now on!
