    A lot of the time it's all about finding "easy" ways to do things - and taking time and resting part way through as necessary.
    Sadly I no longer have any pets;
    LW I know what you mean about finding easy ways to do things - I am slowly learning that because of my muscle disease and my fatigue but I tend to forget the resting part way through bit!!! Sorry you havent any pets now but the thought of sxxxxx ( I cant even type the word:eek:) brings me out in a cold sweat!
    leanne82duke you would be very welcome if you join us -but I do need to warn you that we can be quite mad at times:rotfl:
    sandy I hope you had already posted that you had completed the list!!!!

    will go do stars and then get back to ebay
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine
    could do better - must try harder

    Evening everyone

    Hugs Hells Bells - hope the ME attack passes soon xx

    Greenbee - re the reunion dinner - There's a brilliant line in the film "The Parole Officer" where they've done the bank heist, are on their way out and someone's forgotten something. The old lag say "Never go back" but the protagonist answers " but I've left xyz...". The old lag answers "in that case - go back". The analogy is apt. If you've nothing to go back FOR then don't do it love xxx

    Natty - dogs can be so funny, I know if I get down on hands and knees on the floor to hook something out from under a cupboard or something, BB is most attentive and does the nudging and real mothering stuff!

    Jo - top news about Asbo dog being home.

    helen jelly
    - top news about the job!

    Lilme - happy birthday to DP for yesterday. And seeing your name on that conference agenda is brilliant - don't be nervous - it's nothing to be scared about. Just talk about what you know - you have more balls than Ed ;) xxx

    Busy day. Did NN's cleaning this afternoon (part of my "portfolio working" :D ) then popped over later for gin and gossip. My identity card came today for the interview people and I also had a message on the answerphone saying that one address for the interviewing I'm supposed to be starting this week but haven't yet had the info for was "office refused" and the post code was given. I looked it up on Google Earth. Forget the sink estates, we're talking Posh! :D

    Have done some flying but not much. I will need to inspect the lists in the morning and check what I need to do.
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    just debating whether or not to join in with you ladies again! :think:

    I managed when I was pregnant for about 2 weeks when I was on annual leave. :o

    I do need to get into a routine with the housework for when I go back to work (plan to spend a quick 30mins each evening on the housework so I have weekends free) so maybe flylady thread is the way forward :)

    oh go on then yoy've twisted my arm - can I join in next week please?

    Where does the time go? :think:
