I'm in, thanks, guys.
I was all alone in the old thread, and you'd turned the lights off, and it was dark, and scary and I didn't know where you were...Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0 -
I was signed up to the Flylady emails for years, but never seemed to get anywhere. Temptation was too great to just delete - didnt seem to matter somehow. I think this thread is going to be sooooo much better - it's interactive, people are 'watching' you and there is so much encouragement. I love it already and Im actually looking forward to my second week :eek:
Me too!! We started together, so neither of us can leave until the other does:D
I'm in again this week. Will post list tomoz. xx0 -

Hi all
I'm in again please, thanks as always to Pigpen, Toots and Soappie..
As ever, I'll never keep up with the thread, if I did I'd never get anything done! The only time I keep up is if I've got some time off work. I'll probably only manage to post once a day at most but as it looks like we're all trying to keep the thread and posts to a minimum then that'll be ok..
Hope everyone gets to work and school ok tomorrow, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it'll be ok here, had enough of skidding and abandoning the car for this winter ta!
See you all tomorrow!0 -
Hi All
I'm here in my own fashion....big thanks to the usual three :A
toots Honey, I did pick up on your subtle hints in your list.....but know you are like me.....if you want people to know something you will tell themI just want to be treated as "normal" (as much as possible before someone says something
) & carry on with day to day life without illness getting in the way......the biggest of hugs to you.....you know I understand :kisses3:
I will keep my posts to the minimum because of my lack of flying......I find it very difficult to keep up with the thread at the moment.......but big hugs to all.

Thanks Triker.. posted in last weeks thread so have posted here again..
please can you add me...
I have to admit on the surface my house looks lovely but don't try and open the cupboards...
Having read through lots of the posts have noted that some people do the same as me so i'm nodding at the computer..
Tonight i cleaned all the kitchen washed up after dinner.. Got dd to sleep.. Came down and put a hot milk in the microwave for me and OH.. That was 5 mins.. and in that time i put away washing up cleaned down sides, swept floor and prepared dd's breakfast.. Its like a competition in my head.. I think... ooo what can i do in that time.. then again I know ive got several screws missing..
This week has been terrible to do anything though as my beautiful Mum passed away on New Years day after a long battle with cancer.. Has taken the wind from my sails !! Having a little one i just want to try and get into some kind of routine again.. The last few months have been very hit and miss ..
