Morning all
I've got so much to do today and my leg is driving me senseless. DH has squashed the blood filled mozzie.
I have no interest what is going on in the Arms. I'm lucky I don't care what people think of me. I know my family love me (with all my little ways) and have good and loyal friends (who accept my quirks). I live my life how it makes me happy as then I'm good to be around for those I care about. My signature says it all.

Hugs for everyone specially Toots, Lady L and Diva.

Morning all.
A marathon catch-up with Fred for me again; we were out all day yesterday (canal museum gala at Stoke Bruerne); thought we were going out today, Mr LW said Gt Linford Waterside festival was on, but when I checked online it's not til next week.:mad::D
Notso sorry, only just seen your post from Friday night. All I can say is that you've always come across as a nice person to me. It is easy to misconstrue emails, I know, I do tend to litter mine with smilies and such like. No idea why your OH should be off with you - maybe he was hurting from his accident and not thinking? (Hope he's OK btw). Have a Wolfy (((HUG))) and rest assured I'm pleased to call you Friend.:o
Jojo what did you think of Milton Keynes then? Did you get to any pubs at all?;)
Grateful I agree Stony Stratford is nice, but honest, there are other good bits to MK.:D I live here, for one!!:rotfl:
Froddy thanks for letting us know Soappie's OK.:)
Mudbath oh, poor Stripes! Hope she's feeling better today - I've walked into things many times myself, and you don't half feel a prawn!:D
Cally best of luck with the skydive. I'm not jealous..... no, honest, I'm not...... mutter mutter, grumble grumble......:D
JennyJewell good luck for the driving lesson tomorrow.
:wave:Hiya Soappie. Before anyone thinks I've lost the plot btw, I've got 2 tabs open on the netbook, and trying to reply to posts as I read them.:D
Toots welcome home - glad you've enjoyed your week.:)
Regarding the silliness going on in the Arms..... I had a quick look when it was first brought to our attention (by holly IIRC) but haven't bothered going back since. I do get easily upset by people being unkind, so I feel it's best to stay away. What I don't understand is why they feel it necessary to be so unpleasant - have they nothing better to do? And what happened to "be nice to all moneysavers"? *insert shruggy smilie*.
Oh well, onwards and upwards... my Stepford Husband:D vacuumed the whole bungalow yesterday; he's got the ironing to do today, and check the car over (weekly check water, oil, tyres) and I have to do my weekly trawl of planning applications for the local CAMRA branch (see if any more pubs are due to be lost) then the rest of the day's our own.
Have a lovely Sunday, fellow Flyers; ((((HUGS)))) posi-vibes and get well wishes where needed.:)If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -

Morning everyone.:wave: New doormat/Stepford wife wanting to join the thread;)
I've tried to follow Flylady before by signing up to the emails, but ended up not reading them and never really got past shining my sink. I have a house full of clutter, 2 DDs who are 4 and 2, a husband who does help but is as messy and disorganised as me and a cat.
Haven't been well the last couple of weeks so the house has got even worse than usual.
Today I need to do:
DW
put laundry on
Tidy living room
Clean bathroom
Do some decluttering
Phone people
Hope everyone has a good day today0
