Weekly Flylady Thread 29th March 2010

Natty68

Morning campers, have been up since 6.30am and am now showered, dressed and have done hair. I spent a good half hour shining everything that was shiny in the kitchen this morning..I think I need certifying as I was shining my stainless steel saucepans..hmmm!!! Someone save me quick :rotfl:

Suep sorry to hear your news honey, *hugs*
zoelikesjam fantastic news about the custody hearing. Now you can all settle down to normality and enjoying family life.
helenjelly congratulations on the job - go you
LW *hugs* honey, sorry the BD is rearing her ugly head. You could always do what I do at the moment, mine is tied up outside in the garden. She can't get to me but I know she is there, every now and again she sneaks in when I open the door but after a quick "get out" she is back tied up again (hmm this sounds a weird analogy to anyone that doesn't know what I am talking about, I could get reported for being cruel to a real black dog.....lol)
GnB glad the scan went okay, here's hoping you don't have to wait long to hear the results for your LO.
Sandy sending you lots of special snugglehuggles from the Butty household, dogs and cats want to send snuggles too.
greenbee continued thanks for sending updates of Sandy.
Penny we went to the IWM, for the first time, last week and absolutely loved the Ministry of Food exhibition. I love anything to do with this and am fascinated by the 1940's food and way of living and I'm only 42, weird eh?:o
Well done to Froddy's class for winding the Kurling..:T
Oooh absolutely love the compulsory extra Piggers (is it okay to call you that, as I've been here a fair year or so now, or would you rather Pigpen?)
Sorry lilostitch that the BD is barking rather loudly, here's hoping the meds help you hon. *Hugs*
Diva I'll let you know how many I have when I have got to the end of the candle catalogue.. I do have a feeling that I am dwindling down my stocks..lol I promised DH that I wouldn't use the cc this month but I really do want the spring megapack at yankeedoodle..:rotfl:especially as I have just bought a new printer and a new swish mp4 player for DH for his easter present, on the card..eeeps!!

Oooh and thankyou to the tip for a cut onion in the living room to absorb the paint fumes - it worked :T I did find out from DH last night that the paint he used was over 10 years old though, he had brought it with him when we moved 17 years ago (half used!) nowonder it had blooming paint fumes in. I did wonder as I am so strict at buying the non ammonia based and eco friendly ones.. I think they didn't do them that long ago..lol

Ack someone could have warned me that Chris Evans is mad on Radio 2 in the mornings, listening to him at the moment as I don't like my local DJ's replacement while the Morning Zoo are on holiday for the next two weeks. I'm being subjected to Slade at this time of the morning..:eek:

Feeling quite tired today. Jimmy Carr was ok last night but I prefer when I see him on tv, OH agreed. Snow was quite bad in Glasgow so took us ages to get out of the car park. Just chilling this morning and am aiming for 500 words on the dissertation later (that every day should get me there in no time).

Level 1s for yesterday and today done so just my dailies and own tasks and the compulsory extra.

1. I have 2 weeks off works so am not travelling around.
2. I am at home (spent a lot of last year posted away)
3. OH finishes school on Thursday and we are going on holiday.
4. My niece
5. And my favourite, I am very proud of my job and can't imagine doing anything else, I love our Armed Forces (I may be biased)
6. Ooh one last one, I have had an acting promotion for about six months and it is official tomorrow!

That will do for now.

I'm thankful for ......
My 3 beautiful healthy kids
My loving dog
For my family who loves me as I do them
For my Aunt for stepping up and looking out for me when my Mum passed away.
For my inability to manage my money without which I would never have needed Martin Lewis and therefore never met all you!
For my flylady friends for cheering me up when I'm down, listening when I rant and most importantly for just being there.
And also for Mr Tunnock without whom there would be no caramel logs, tea cakes or caramel waffers.

hi all

haven't caught up, just popping on to say hi! Was out last night so will be trying to catch up later, and do some flying at least! Hvae folded the laundry this morning so that's something. Better run for the train as I have a meeting in town at 11am.

I'm kinda glad that yesterday is over - the little boys funeral went well.....his life was well remembered and there was much mention of Star Wars, Transformers and Ben 10. As we left the Star Wars theme was playing,

DD2 stressed by everything! School printers were out of action - just when all the DT projects have to be printed on A3! It's a good thing I'm not in school - because the IT teacher would get a mouthfull!

it's raining AGAIN - and I must get some flying done before the stress arrives home at 3.30 with DD2.

HUGS to Sandy and whoever else needs them.......

and a BIG congrats to zoelikesjam!

Have already sorted Gas service - T(hurs next week ) and doctors appointment (tomorrow) as well as paying credit card bill so not been idle!


compulsary extras

the improvement in my DD1's health - long may it continue

the end of term is nigh!
