Morning all
Nice to see the new friends back
Well i have walked the dog he is a cairn cross daschund and he is deffinatly my dog i tell the children that i love him more:rolleyes: as he doesnt play me up like them.
Yep my kids always saying i love my doggies more than them. I say to them that Molly and Poppy (doggies) only give me unconditional love where as they only give me unconditional hassle! Im sure that had I had my dogs before my children I would have had more dogs and less children!!!I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
Good morning everyone :beer: Just a quick pop in as I'm at work
Glad to see everyone is happy, and the Flyladies are[STRIKE] ingratiting themselves[/STRIKE] integrating :j

I read that as "bottoms to foreheads" :eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Maybe you could try that next
DH and I tried a new recipe of coffee buns last night, to use leftover cream. I've only got 2.5 rows of DD's knitted jacket left, so hope to finish that tonight :j

Feeling wealthy now as just sold DS's old highchair and steriliser and have the grand total of £17 in my pocket :j:j - won't last long but nice to have it for a bit.
Got typing to do, then lunch, then walk the dog. The day is going so quickly and I have to make a real effort not to just sit and chat on the computer.
Jo, I used to work in an office and regularly used to feel like inflicting damage on all the idiots who were there - never did though (or did I .....;))
how did you sell them so quickly....I am desperatley trying to sell some of DD's toys, they are listed on netmums but so far no joy:rolleyes:0 -

Oh I remember all mine got it together - well one after the other- and i had about six weeks of it. Get hold of calamine as it really works. Its good to get rid of it now though as the heat makes it worse. HugsxI must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.

I tried the highchair on Netmums with no joy, so this was on Trade-it. I listed it on Friday night and the lady contacted me yesterday. Just luck of the draw I think. The thing about Trade-It is you can place your ad online for free and then just keep renewing it when it runs out.
As for the steriliser, she asked if I had anything else to go when she came for the highchair and I said I'd just found it on the fridge freezer (thanks Pigpen!)
I don't get a lot of luck with toys, so normally pass them onto a friend of mine who runs a playgroup or, if she doesn't need them, on to a charity shop.Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting0 -

Morning all . . . it is still morning isn't it? Yes!
Not sure, but I think I posted on this thread not too long after joining MSE, was having a moan about there not being a place for general chitchat here on the OS board and received a message reminding me about the Daily thread. Moan over :rotfl:
Not part of the 'evicted' Flylady team, but more than happy to sneak in on their coattails!Having a quick run through of the thread I see it will take me some time to get a handle on who everyone is, so please be gentle. I am 'of an age' and the braincells are not what they used to be.
This was meant to be just a quick hello and I hope to get some time later to have a more thorough look round later *fingers crossed* Sooo...hello everyone :hello: I look forward to getting to know you all as time goes on!0 -
Morning everyone - flylady here sticking her head over the fence to have a look...
I'm bored at work planning what I have to do tonight when I get in. Cooking mainly. Have written some bread making recipes down this morning to try at the weekend if I feel brave enough and use up the endless bags of flour I have!
Might do a little flying if feel like it but definitely HHE - must do this must do this! Set up a pedmeter today for the first time and lets have a look at how many steps I've done - hmm not many think it's not working properly I must have walked more than 200 steps so far today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi to the one's I know - jinky, Diva, Jo, Tooch and anyone else I missed and Hi to everyone on here I don't know!
Talking of dogs - my border terrier helped himself to a box of chocolates which he ate neatly and tidily without me knowing and then, not surprisingly threw it all up 3 hours later in the biggest pile I have ever seen - nice one. He is very sweet natured (!) however a little naughty!final unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -
