Morning FlyLadies and Happy Birthday Natty!!
Just a quick hello as even though I've not had chance to do much flying this week I still want to join in the thread else its too easy to get a CBA attitude!
I promise I will do some proper flying soon just had a manic busy week. Off out again for a couple hours at 11:30 but plan to wizz the hoover around before I go.
Have a great day flying and will check in later

Day off work + dead washing machine + internet to look for new washing machine = no flying being done!:(0

:bdaycake:Happy Birthday Natty
It's bright and sunny here in Valliland. I had arranged to go and visit my sister with mum and DD and to pick up a 'new' laptop while there but we are not risking the journey to Northampton as the weather is dodgy. Both my kids are off now as they have two days INSET so, as I got up before them I have had all my glasses out of the display cabinet (they're crystal) and the have been washed and dried and look lovely now. Kids are now up so I will get on with some 'proper' flying shortly. I have also dealt with two calls from school about the order I have put in as it's the last day to spend this years budget...I have order stuff to enrich children's learning - video cameras for them to use, digital cameras so that all staff can take photos for the website and for evidence and some hardware to make sure that, if keyboards and mice (mouses?) fail we can get PCs up and running quickly - oh and some new headphobnes as we have some taped together! I do like spending other people's money!
Sexy- glad you have a diagnosis - when you mentioned 'fever' I did wonder if you have flu - I really do think that the stress you have been under has made you vulnerable. Please do take as much timne as you need to to get over this properly - when my dad had flu it did develop into pneumonia and he was off work for months - if necessary have some MORE time off AFTER half term!
Oh I have washing on the line!
Now off to see what I should have been doing...

Happy Birthday Natty - have a good one x :bdaycake:
Got in the shower this morning just wet my hair when it went cold!!! Ran it for ages wouldn't get hot again, stood there shivering my bits off thinking !!!!!! do I do now?!! So tried drying myself with hands so cold they couldn't hold the towel properly and dried my wet dirty hair, sprayed loads of deoderant and came to work!! Good news is I'm leaving work in a minute for the gas people who do loads of work for our lettings side to come and fix it - something to do with the inlet to the heat exchanger. Might as well be speaking swahili to me!!
Love and hugs all round especially to LL. Jinks have a fab time with DD. Sexy - hope you feel better soon
Back later xTo love and be loved is the greatest happiness of existance - Sydney Smith0
