    Morning all.

    I have just read back, what happened in here last night, you are all mad:eek::rotfl:

    I REALLY need to fly today, I have a friend coming at 10am and one of DD's friends (Whose mother always has a perfect house;)) coming at 11am.
    I have stuff all over from my ebaying last night, there is animal hair all over and hubby cooked last night so the kitchen looks like it has been hit by a whirlwind.
    Oh yes and I need to get dressed and walk the dog. It's not looking good:rotfl: Might help if I got of here;)

    Hope you are all well.

    Good morning everyone!

    Been up for over an hour, but taking ever so long to come round. Breakfast is next, then I must make a start (aiming to get my list down to one page again), as I've promised DS2 to take him to the playground/family farm at the garden centre this afternoon. The plan is to fly this morning, then have lunch and go out no later than 1.30. I'll probably catch up with you all while eating lunch. Hope everyone has a good day.

    Made the right decision on getting bathroom, hall, landing and stairs done early. Cant face doing the top of the kitchen units and how on earth does everyone wipe the back of the radiators? There is no way I can get behind mine:(
    Going to have some breakfast and another cuppa before deciding what to substitute todays list for – if I entered either DS or DD’s rooms I would never leave :eek:
    I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints - the sinners are much more fun ;)
