    I've sorted all my underwear drawers (knickers, bras, nightwear, socks, tights, vests). I keep my underwear in a CD chest so that I can sort it easily (e.g. sheer and opaque tights are separate). They're all nice and tidy
    Sounds well organised, but how big is your CD chest? (Thinks - CDs aren't very big)

    Well at least I know I am not the only one with occasional leaks :rotfl:
  • Valli, I hate Sunday evenings from the point of view that my flat looks awful at the end of the weekend! It's so bad here today, it looks like I've not flown for a month! Why do you hate Sundays?

    Sexy and Jinky, well done on getting 5 stars! You have done great! Well done to everyone who has got stars, or even tried to do a bit of flying, we are all winners!

    The BD is here big time, I woke up from a nap this afternoon crying uncontrollably, and altho I've stopped crying now I feel really rubbish. Am hoping that I've got the energy to fly tomorrow, I think it will do me good to get the house looking nice again, and also it will take my mind off things.

    Where is the new thread?

    thrifty I have moved a few times with little ones, I would accept the offer. Get pictures, ornaments, precious things packed and safe out of the way! Pack up summer clothes they can be out of the way for you too, summer toys etc. It'll come in really useful IMO so you can get things you won't need straight away packed up instead of rushing, not have to live surrounded by the boxes and safe until you want to unpack them. We didn't have the option this time until late, 3 broken photo frames, 4 broken ornaments :( too late

    rose ((hugs)) not seen one yet, piggers maybe busy?

    greenbee I have a similar plan with my new wardrobe, all the insert widgets :D

    Oooooo there is a notice on one of the garages in front of our house, to rent, will phone them in the morning :D fingers crossed noone gets in touch with them first! (oh and that it's cheap.....but it's HA one they usually are)

    This week need to take this laptop in to be fixed, won't charge, keys plopping off and goto I**a to take the next wrong part back....4th time lucky? In between 3 meetings, a party, kids haircut, DS2 new glasses...etc
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    :kisses3:rosepink chase that bd away. Phase 2 tomorrow. I have an Inset day but will be on as soon as I get home to see how much you have been making your living room lovely so get yourself motivated and think how much better you will feel if you do ( you're gonna boot that dog right out of your flat.....);)
    Methinks that Piggers is either christening her new bed now she os able or is wrapping christmas pressies. Know which I would rather be doing;)

    Oh I suspect that Valli hates Sundays for the same reason I do, It's school in the morning!!

    I did go out Tooch, to my Bible meeting. I'm trying to get into a proper routine of going again, isolating myself is not good for me. I find it so difficult being with lots of people, but I was able to sit in a back room and listen from there, and then I chatted to a few people afterwards. I think I tired myself out, that's probably why I feel low tonight. I'm really glad I went tho, and I'm sure I will be ok tomorrow. How are you doing?

    What about everyone talented who gets booted out - all because they didnt wear enough hair gel, or sing badly enough? :rotfl:
    exactly! Rachel did not deserve to go tonight, nor did Miss Frank. John and Edward staying means that those with talent are having to leave. :mad:
    But they still can't sing :rolleyes: I don;t ususally watch X-fac (I'm a Strictly girl ;) ) but we watched it in the hotel room last night - they didn;t even know the words :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    :D
    I know! Ridikerlos! I missed most of Strictly last night as forgot to set it up, I think I've got the last 45 mins, so don't tell me who went out!

    Yay! Keep on my back and make me do Phase 2! I'm really looking forward to it actually, thanks so much for your encouragement Thifty, I really appreciate it. Hope your inset day goes well. I like what you said about booting that dog out of the flat! Take that, BD! Kerpow!
