    See should have had a list of the answers. on the other hand you should know them anyway otherwise you wont know if the computer is wrong.
    Who I am is not important. What I do is.
  • No dearest, its the candidates' answers in the computer. The correct answers are of course in my head.

    I hope I'm not speaking out of turn, but I'd like to thank each and every Flylady who's posted messages of support, and those who have thought of the Flyladies who are having a difficult time just now. You are all wonderful :A

    This thread not only keeps my house clean and tidy, but the warmth from virtual friends is second to none, and has really helped me to get through today. I am no longer feeling murderous :p

    Ditto - and I would like to add my thanks to those flyladies who are keeping an eye on me as I step out in the real world...not least because my mum is away on holiday (and would worry) and my BF IRL is preoccupied with her brother's problems...and I love that you care about me and are pleased for me:A:D:cool:

    Hi everyone - just wanted to send huge hugs to Lady Liberty
    Congrats to GnB and ajmoney
    and massive hugs to PP and family hope the insurance is sorted quickly

    :hello: to all my Flypeople friends, things are very busy here with very little free time. House is a pit :o.
    Greenbee I got Poppytime from the library today which isn't going to help get anything done :j

    Am I the only one who doesn't understand why someone who is so anti the thread continues to hang round the thread? Clearly a closet cleaning obsession :cool:.

      Someone wiser than me coined the phrase Fli-curious :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: And as I once said, step away from the computer, follow the Mahatma;s line in your sig, and use the ignore function :D
