Hello? Am I in the right place for Flylady - AKA for help with cleaning, decluttering and just plain sorting things out?
Umm...Better introduce myself - The Mother told me about flylady, the cleaning method I mean, and I just bunged it into google and found you guys! Over the last few days, I've been having a look around and just thought, "YES!"
Money saving, great cooking ideas, people who know what it's like to be in debt and knee deep in dirty dishes, ironing and clutter from other people, oh my lord, I think I've just stumbled into heaven sent help.
I'm currently living with some of my friends who are either finishing grad. school or are living the high life of the nine to five, or just occasionally, the five to nine. Me and my SO (that's the right acronym to use, isn't it?) are looking for a place to buy at the moment, but it's not going so well at the moment.
It'll all work out in the end somehow.
Anyway, that's just about me done - but I'd better post this, before I chicken out and think that this is a bad idea (minor anxiety about meeting new people - online or in real life - bizzarely!):heartpulsOnce a Flylady, always a Flylady:heartpuls0 -

Brief overview - all my cash/credit cards are missing 10 days for new ones argh why December!! DS1 still off & DP now ill, house is back to bomb site after a start on his tanks now DP too unwell to finish them, meetings are leaving me furious.
