Oh and school sports day decluttered

was a wise teacher who suggested that, since our July sports days have been washed out big style for a few years and we have had major problems, including complete cancellation one year, so sad for the Y6 kids, that we have Sprorts day EARLY

now *rubs chin* I wonder who it WAS

[Creeping back on here to check out what needs to be done...uh-huh... kitchen and living room... May have a bit of a go tomorrow...don't think anyone noticed me looking...
....so I'll tiptoe out again as soon as the coast is clear... ]


Oh - but before I go: good wishes for a sunny Glastonbury, L-L!!!


[Bother! That was a bit large, but I think I got away with it..... ]

Evening everybody
its been warm but a bit hazy here.

Winchelsea - dont be hard on yourself honey -we tend to forget that running backwards and forwards to shops etc is time consuming and often we wonder where the day has gone - and in your case you also spend time with DH out of the house so its not as if you can potter about and do little jobs and speak to him at the same time. I personally think you did quite a lot yesterday.:D
kassey hello - I see you are still being a very good flylady and getting up with the birds and completing your lists everyday - well done to you - hope all is well in kassey-land!!
lou2468 dont be silly - you are doing brilliantly - as usual all the newbies are putting us reguilars to shame:rotfl:
Mudders WTG with the speed boat - sounds very :money: I did already know of course because cuddly, batty, dotty, notty, potty, stroppy, sloppy, spotty stripey poppy puppy dog phoned and told me - she is a bit concerned at being sea-sick and that you might use her as shark bait!
G&B hope you are feeling better now hun - sorry you only got a 'c' in that exam - they should have realised that you had more to say and marked it accordingly IMHO!!!! I am sure the other results will be great - you work very hard and usually do very well - will be keeping fingers crossed for you xx
AnW'sMum will you please go to work - you are tiring me out with all your jobs today - what have you been taking??:p
Voice of reason - hope you found you enthusiasm and had a good day

Newlywed thats brilliant - congratulations - and a quick start too - what a relief it must be - i am delighted for you:T:T
gravitytolls joining in is the easiest way to find out how it works - and I can vouvh that it does - if you stick with it for at least a couple of weeks - I used to live in a total pigsty - now its only half a muddle:rotfl:
LameWolf - thats great news about another lodger - what kind this time?
Dusty thanks I did - how is the leg?

Mummyslittleboy how frustrating for you all the same - hope you manage to get things sorted. Just seen your next post - thats a lot better - its still a long journey for you. (((hugs)))
Jassa - no we are not meant to use that word yet:rotfl: - but I am interested - do you design them yourself - i want to make my first ones this year
oh nice one ajmoney that should be good:T
Mrsow we dont - you really can only do one or the other properly - most of us just skim through the thread - - pleeease dont worry if you cant keep up with the thread yet - you will in time once you get things under control - in the meantime just pop in when you can and tell us how you are doing - maybe read the last page with a coffee?
onestep eggcellent (oops sorry!!) we want a piccie - congratulations on being a new MUm!!!!!:rotfl:
LadyL massive squishy hugs -brave lady xx - I am glad that decision was made for me - i couldnt have taken it I dont think -I wish you lots of sunshine and happiness filled days - you will be allowed to occasionally fly but only on the days without a 'D' in them:p:D we will do a sun dance for your festival if you remind us - keep saving the spoons - loads of love xxxxxx

I had a really good day out curtesy of MacMillan - the Distillery tour was very interesting - our guide was passionate about what he did there - its a small independent distillery and one of the oldest and i tasted the single malt - it was a risk but i got away with it ....just!!!! they did us proud with soup and sandwich lunch - we were stuffed - and then had a wander round the other shops that were there - I unfortunately or maybe fortunately had left my card at home so only had a small amount of cash:(:(:( oh well its not that far so i just need to find someone to take me again!.

havent done a whole lot from the list
- have washed all the throws - need to get them in shortly
- watered the plants
- had 3 phone calls - 1 of which was a survey

Lady L, you, my friend, are an inspirational woman, I am very much in awe of your capacity to deal with all the shoite that has been thrown at you and bat it back ferociously...on your terms...give Glastonbury a go and leave your mark as I'm sure you will.;):D

Have some of my spoons, you're very welcome, I'd honestly share if I could, in fact you'd be spooned out!!! Actually that sounds a bit rude...:eek:


Nil rain at Glastonbury vibes hun and enjoy every single minute of it, I wish you clean toilets, fair weather and good views of your favourite bands. xxxxxx
