Weekly Flylady Thread 28th December 2009

Ishtar

Mumof2 Yes. Exactly the same.

I'm still looking at the living room...it's a disaster....have put DS's things into his toybox, but now have 3 carrier bags full of his outgrown toys...need to decide what to do. Probably charity shop some of them, but I'm waiting to see when the next NCT nearly new sale is so that I could perhaps sell them.

Back to it, I guess...

Hope everyone is having a good day?
