Hello... I'm new!! :hello:
I've just made my first ever post on the Getting to Know You thread and I though this should be my second port of call! I've lurked around reading MSE for a while but took the plunge today.
Housework and I have a love/hate relationship. It takes forever for me to get the motivation to do any but when I do I really go for it. I would love to be one of those domestic godesses who has a pristine house (or flat in my case!) that smells of fresh baked bread with homemade biscuits and treats always on hand, but at the moment if I know there are guests coming I spend the whole day before cleaning!
I work full time doing 2 days, 2 nights, 4 days off so its going to take a little while to get in a routine but I'm ready to give it a go.
I think I need to do this ..... :xmastree: so you can see me!
Thank you for your help in advance!

Allo All!
Toots what a flippin' nightmare re the hossy! I'm so lucky that Mr LW takes time off work to take me to my appointments; I'd go into meltdown if I was mucked about like that.:eek: I hope you're having a lovely restful day today, and doing things you enjoy.
I'm almost through today's list (tbh, lots of it was already done;)) I just have to move a plethora of dragons so that I can dust properly. Does anyone else have dragons in every single room, or is it just me?:D
Also need to do something about my legs. If I don't take the epilator to them soon, I'm going to get mistaken for my mate Kaya.

Going to declutter a banana first though I think.;)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Afternoon all, many, many thanks for your kind words. Well I have new:
DANNY HAS BEEN ON LINE!!!!! Hurrrrrrrahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
They went on a 6 hour patrol on Sunday and it lasted until today? Don’t ask, because I didn’t want to know and he can only say so much. They were besieged by little kids everywhere begging for food, he gave one of his food parcels to 3 little girls as they looked half starved and their translator said they had no parents, what a lovely boy I have raised, even though I say it myself. Then at night surrounded by the nasty men. He says that either the end of the week or beginning of next he will be living ‘in a hole in the middle of nowhere’ and doesn’t know for how long either. At least I will not wind myself up so much if I know he can’t get to the internet – ha, who am I trying to kid!
Sorry Piggers for no flying post.
Oooh I have flown, I s/s’d the kitchen this morning and went home a just a while ago to put a gammon joint in the oven on low, so will be ready when I finish work
