    Well a couple of hours pottering about in the garden and I feel all de-stressed again. It's only a car after all and when I rubbed (his) paint off the mark it isn't as bad as I thought. There is a sizeable dent above the rear wheel arch, but I reckon it can be pushed out if I find someone with really bendy wrists :p

    Going to spend an hour doing a menu plan tonight and in my preparation I came across this site on one of the Old Style threads - http://organizedhome.com/printable/household-notebook

    It has a printable planner/form for just about everything and I think my work printer may be quite busy tomorrow :cool:

    I've started on the Fly Lady site and I too have a shiny sparkly sink! I was so proud of it that for the first time in all the time I've lived here I actually dried the dishes rather than letting them drip dry, just so that I could see more of the nice sparkly shininess! :rotfl:

    Good Morning Everybody!

    My I ache! Dropped the car of for its MOT at 8 this morning (it had first slot). Heard back that it has failed on a non functioning nearside headlight, authorised him to replace the bulb and it has a shiny full MOT and is awaiting My Friend and his colleague to collect it at lunch!
