Have you time for a cuppa before you meet your OH? Might help revive you.:o

Afternoon all!

Managed to get 4 of 5 cards for all birthdays/ fathers day and get all but one present too! Massive things off to-do list for me!

Also booked self onto next dance class (must have some relaxation) and arranged zumba class for tonight.

Most importantly I go my Stardrops!!! How excited can I be (does that make me really sad or just a really commited Flylady cadet!)

Hurrah! Need coffee for decluttering now!

I have a bit of an OCD thing with this...my kitchen is clean now and I have to make a cuppa :eek: hee hee. I had thought about it but may wait until I meet him. Going to quickly S & S the bathroom and maybe do the kitchen floor before I leave.

ETA Can't be bothered with those, will do them tomorrow when I can be bothered!

:mad: the men in the garden behind have started a bonfire. Good job I realised now as the washing was still out there, needless to say it is now in. Fortunately it is just about dry. Goodness only knows what they are burning as it stinks vile :mad: and why is it that they are in capable f using words of more than 4 letters where every other word starts with f and ends in the last 3 letters of duck :mad::mad::mad: can you tell I am a tad annoyed!

:money: Managed to get myself 2 free tickets to see Paul McCartney in Glasgow on Sunday :money: had been looking at the tickets online last night, so glad I didn't buy them as I would have been really annoyed to be offered the free ones today.

Have been stupid and now need to go to work. If I am going to help OH's school band out what do you think I might need? My instrument perhaps? Oh well, at least I realised now and have time to get it on the way.

Well I've not got as far through the list as I hoped but I've totally blitzed the three rooms I've done. Onwards and upwards...conservatory next. This will make it so much easier to follow the lists next week.

Keep checking on DS but he just wants to sleep, bless him.

Right, off I go again xx

Hi all, just been and signed on and then signed OFF!!!

Have also stripped the bed, washed the bedding (and now there's black clouds so it's on the airer) and remade the bed. Just going to have a cuppa then it's off to the hairdressers.

And from tomorrow I'm employed as a legal secretary (a job I haven't done in many years but know I was good at ).




LW it was the first time I had ever in my life not had a job and, having been really ill, then made redundant, then applying for well over 50 jobs and not being able to get any, I just felt useless and like there was no chance of a job at all. Plus OH's work is very changeable - self employed - so whilst he has work now, he might have nothing in a few weeks time, and I find the thought of not being able to pay rent and food really hard to cope with (went through all that when we were young, business went bust, evicted from home and then waiting for council housing etc).

As well as that, here's a newsflash: I really really don't enjoy cleaning!!!!!

So if I am working full time then I don't have to do it ALL - coz he will be working as much as me, but I'll be doing the cooking and washing so he can go back to helping clean

oooo - just got my chickens!!! :j:j:j 3 lovely little girls, Henrietta, Sprinkles, & Rosie. Very exciting!!!! The dogs can't work them out at all

On the flying front.. er... nothing yet today apart from the dailies. Maybe later, once I've decluttered a swimming lesson for DD!

Hope everyone is ok
