Weekly Flylady Thread 12th April 2010

msgnomey

well not much in the way of flying for me today-went to get eyes tested and ordered new glasses, will be ready tomorrow, can claim them back must get on and do it!!!

So that will be on tomorrows list after I have been to the drs, went today and she wants me to go back for a proper exam with a speculum and do swabs and stuff, lovely what fun, she said 'you could have booked a double appointment and I would have had time to do it!'

Well how was I to know she'd need a double appointment to poke about in my bits and pieces???? Anyway at least she booked the appointment for me herself so I didn't have to go through the hassle of trying to book it at the desk 'cos I would have been told to 'ring up in the morning as we don't make appointments in advance only on the day'

ARGH!!!

Rant over

Going to bed now, hopefully for a good nights sleep! (not too bothered by Dr and swab thingy as have had an ovarian cyst in the past and it feels like that again...sigh...)

Today, flyingwise I've washed up and sorted a ton of paperwork, have now got two big bags full - one to recycle (empty envelopes leaflets, etc) and one to be burned (shredder is broken so PILs are going to burn our stuff as required. I feel pleased with myself for doing all that, it was a lot but now have only one bag of paper work to sort through, and it also means that I now know where all the docs are that we need to take to France for our holiday! Yay!
No time to read the thread, sorry, hugs to all who need them xx

Tomorrow I have a busy day as am going out for coffee with local business women, it's a regular thing they do apparently. Am really nervous, but who knows what might happen as a result, so it's something I need to do. And when I get back I need to finish this customer order so it's ready to post on Friday.
Will come back as soon as I can, I miss you all!

Love and hugs to all, especially Lady Liberty and Diva xx

pigpen take some time out and put the bulkiest stuff on ebay to make space - here's a challenge for you - you are not allowed to buy anything more for baby until you have sold enough stuff on ebay to pay for it!
