    Big HAPPY BIRTHDAY :beer: to Jinks an mumof5 :bdaycake::bdaycake::bdaycake:1 each and one for me cos you can never actually have too much cake!
    Have had a truly mad day today getting up early to open pressies (or actually watch Adam open most of them!) The birthday fairy got me the yummy purple ipod I have yearned for since I first saw it and some other lovely stuff, chocs, socks, docking station. Have been mega mega stupidly busy at work cos boss is off and I have ended up picking up lots of stuff he has been putting to one side and everyone has been phoing up to discuss it all today -I am learning to blag my way through things quite convincingly!

    Off for a long soak before going for a meal with dh - Nana is babysitting yippee

    Emergency fund £1000/£1000
    Savings for big things £9017

    Got home and went straight into writing mode and have dealt with another couple of blokes. I shall continue with the writing this evening as it seems to be flowing well.
    Care to send some inspiration this way... I appear to have a mild case of writers' block... or CBA :o

    AAArgh.... The first time I log on and the thread is eleven pages already. I don't have enough time to read back but I'm thinking of all Flyladies warmly and wish everybody well.

    Thank you as always to Pigpen, Toots and Soapie for the hard work. It must be a full time job keeping up with the posts alone!!
    Toots, could I have Monday & Tuesday stars please?

    How are the tiddlies coming on?[/QUOTE]

    No too bad thanks PP, Flybaby is now three! Can you believe it? I'll post some pictures so that you can all see how she's growing up. To think, my labour was induced fabulously by the fact that I was flying all day long!

    DS is pretty good too. He's in a new school and seems to like it. His scumbag father has pretty much lost interest in him, it's all just too much like hard work being a parent! That's not a bad thing though, our world is better for the lack of him.

    I didn't realise that you'd been having such a bad year! Now I feel super guilty for not coming to check on you all sooner :o. I hope things are on the up and looking shiny for you now. x

    Right, dishes need doing now that dinner's over, so I'd better crack on. x

    Hello maralum, great to see you back here. It doesn't seem anytime at all since your LO was born.

    Scary, right? She walks, talks even uses the potty now!

    Good to see you. x

    Ok, just caught up on the two pages I'd missed!

    DUSTY! Yay, you're still here! I remember well how you got your name :rotfl:. It's been over three years since then and it still makes me giggle.

    SOAPPIE! Good to see you, I'm so glad to see flyers plugging away.

    TOOTTI, LADY LIBERTY, thanks so much for the welcome back, I really do feel like I've come home.

    Right 20 minutes until DH comes home - kids are not in their pyjamas, his dinner isn't on and there's a pile of washing like Mount Ararat on our bed. Hmmmmm...
