    Lady-L - hope your arm is feeling better ((hugs)), do you feel up to supervising us pimping zoelikesjam wheelchair/frame? Think we might have a little earner here Diva. How about a pitch on Dragons Den? Have a bit of a thang for Duncan....:D

    Calsbergal - sorry you are really going through the mill at the moment! I've noticed that you've had lots of linkys and advice from the Flyladys - hope things are sorted for you soon. Just want you to know that I think you are a terrific role model for your children and your future grandchild. Hang in there!

    Toots - ((hugs)), I'm wondering if you need to put "chillax" on your to-do-list ;) :A

    Right, I'm offski - grab a hug as you pass the post

    Lala x

    Morning gang!!

    I behind with the thread at the moment. But will try to catch up later.

    I'm not posting a list just yet. I got carried away again last night and guess what............

    I finally got round to fitting the bathroom carpet!!!:j:j:j I think Toots excitement over her pretty new bedroom carpet rubbed off!! ;) Looks fab and feels soooo much warmer up there now. So for now I'm gonna concentrate on making the bathroom look pretty. And do any final bit's n pieces to it to finish it 100% ready for Xmas.

    In fact the house is in such a state again :rolleyes: That I'm starting from the top and working my way down today. Why is it that Monday's and Tuesday's the house looks fab. But by Wednesday evening it it resembles the after math of a hurricane:rolleyes::confused:.

    Love and hugs to all. Back a bit later xxxxxx
