    Nope - the Money Saving boards are for money saving. Anything not money saving goes to DT or The Arms. The Daily thread is the one concession to chattiness on the OS board :D

    There already is a Flylady type chat thread in the Arms - called something like Good Enough club, IIRC :confused: Maybe someone without a headache can find a link :D

    Sorry you feel that way. icon9.gif And sorry you don't like the thread either Pigpen. :o

    I'm a lurking Flylady. I do loosely follow the lists but don't post as the thread is too big for me. Sorry again that the daily thread doesn't suit people but i really don't think anyone was unwelcoming.....

    Hi HJ - well it's suiting me just fine over there :D and I've been here for years. I like the fact that I can post more regular stuff about life - helping kids with homework, what I've baked that sort of stuff without the worry that it's seen as waffle. I'll be back tomorrow and thank you all for accepting us.

    I've done an hour's ironing :p

  • Then there isn't a problem. Flying works for me and I will stick with it, but can everyone get over this now please?
