Hello Flyers

Here we are, start of another week.

Thanks, as ever, to Flylady Central Command for helping me keep the Wolf's Lair livable.

I've grabbed my list for today, but unsure how much I'll get done - I may need to play catch-up later this week. Reason is, Pip and Pandora will be going home lunchtime tomorrow, so I want to make the most of the time I have left with them.:)

Hippo Bathday Msgnomey; have a great day!

Macpep ouch, ouchy ouch re the toe. I can sympathise; I'm forever catching both my little toes on various things round the bungalow

Passthewine if you're "gobby" (your word!):o maybe you'll balance out the fact that I often start a post, then think "nah, no-one's gonna be interested in that" and delete it again.:o

OK, do I play Tug Toy with Pip, or clean the kitchen sink...... hmmm......:rotfl:

Afternoon all :wave:

So glad it's a kitchen day today - ours is not looking good due to missing as few weeks what with one thing or another! Can't wait to get home from work and begin - i'll be up for a HHC at around 18:00 - 18:30 so an advance warning to anyone interested!!

Polkadot I wasn't keen on Angelas Ashes either but loved Tis the follow on to it so don't dismiss reading it if you have a copy!

Dustykitten I thought about you last week (but forgot to mention until now) I saw a family on the tram - young boy plastered up from wrist to shoulder - made me think about your DS - hope he is doing well!

Toots Glad to see you posting your mammoth replies yet - often easier to catch up on Fred reading those when you only have a short while to read

pigpen

toots.. do you not have some knitting to be getting on with..

I WILL move myself this morning afternoon.. :eek: how did that happen???

HHC 1-1:30?

I need food so can whizz about while it cooks!

Morning all

It was heaving at fracture clinic. Back next week. His bone has moved a bit but not too much so far. He now has a much sturdier bright blue cast on.

macpep hope your toes gets better soon

Hopefully that will be it now, for your DS

I am in to update (trying to limit myself to checking my threads as I spend all day on here otherwise).

I am in the process of re-writing my opening statement/introduction as the first attempt could have been written better by a five year old. I am only part way through and have already added 200 words to my target so a fifth of the way there. I want my intro to be at least 500 words so I need to at least another 200 although more will be better. I read it out to OH and he asked why I wasn't beaming, I must be too much of a perfectionist as I am not happy with it yet but I feel so much better that I am finally writing again.

I need lunch and a break now, then on with finishing the opening and then introducing my first section.

I can do this I can do this I can do this :eek:

passthewine

I have an announcement......The ironing is done:j:T

Got to put it all away now:(

LameWolf We will definitely balance each other. I'm gobby whether anyone is interested or not. In fact whether anyone is listening or not:rotfl:

juliejim

I'll join you piggers.
