    hello all

    Feeling pretty pants today :( been out for a bit and just felt dizzy, sick and boiling again. No idea how I will manage at work tomorrow. I really do want to do some flying today, hoover at least.

    Think i will go for a lie down and then see how I feel later.

    Have been lurking this week and am very interested in lurking some more- and maybe posting even! :o

    How do I go about officially lurking and when does the Flylady week start? Also where do I get my Stepford Wife hairdo and husband please? Would be lovely to have someone to pay the bills! ;)

    genius - why didn't I think of that...

    bathroom cleaned
    Living room cleaned
    Backup for PC running

    Must check DS's passport before I forget and the USA Visa thingy - don't want to leave it to the last minute!

    oooo I LOVE this song on R2 right now...
    I've also checked what travel packs of shower gel etc I have (got a lovely Molton Brown set with 6 mini bottles in;) and a handbag sized Sure spray;) ) and I think I had better buy a spare toothbrush ;););)

    Ok done the bathroom, other than mopping the floor.

    Now I think it's time to bake some cakes - since it's on the list :D and apparently we are meant to be dumb list followers who just do everything they are told ;)
