Morning All
Not sure what's happening today but flying had better appear in it somewhere! I need to go and collect some stuff from M&S but M&D are going to Hanley so I may see if they can collect it for me.
Still no news from Sandy - I did log on last night just to see if we'd heard anything. Hope you're okay - hugs.
Yorkie - hugs and lots of posi vibes for family and friends.
Hugs to all

Morning.:wave:
Thought I'd stick my head in and post my list. Quite impressed with myself for first week. So much easier working to the lists than flaffing on my own. Have realised that I do do quite a bit of flying even if it doesn't always look that way or stay that way for long!:p So thank you everyone for the inspiration.:T Lost track of the thread about 20 pages back so not sure I have any hope of catching up. I have DSD1 (15) and DSD2 (13) over for the weekend in addition to our youngest DD( nearly 3) so will be out and about doing stuff hopefully, if we can shoe horn the elder two out their beds before luchtime.:cool:

Morning gang,
I have a fair bit to do today. Miss Tag had me up at 6.00am. All excited as she's going to her 'boyfriends' birthday bash at 9.45am. It's very serious you know. They've been together for a whole year AND she's the only girl going for the second year running. Ah bless!! They are only 7!!
So DW is on. I'm about to plonk Miss Tag in the bath and start a bit of decluttering......well all over the house really:o
Catch you all again in a bit.............0 -
