Weekly Flylady Thread 21st June 2010

serena

:hello:Hi to all my flylady friends!!

I have cleaned the cloakroom today - and taken two lots of washing to the launderette, some of which will need to be washed again, as it is definitely not clean. What a waste of £8. Unfortunately, no choice, as the new machine is delivered next Friday, and we don't have enough clothes.

Yesterday was my birthday treat to see James Morrison in Folkestone - fantastically, wonderfully brilliant, he's just so good live, much better than the recorded stuff. I went woth DD, her BF and his mum. I wish I'd got tickets for DS1 and 2 as they'd have loved it.

After, we hung around the stage door for 3/4 hour, with only about 15 others, and were lucky ebough that the band came out, and we all got photos with James Morrison and he signed the tickets (actually, not me, quite happy to step back and let the others go ahead). DD and BF have seen him three or four times now, waited each time, but were lucky this time. BF's mum literally bounced back to the car, with the biggest smile!! DD's best friend so green with envy!

Back to earth today, too little sleep, so woke up with a headache, and haven't really done very much today.

And tomorrow - off to Clothes Show Live!! I'll catch up on Sunday.

Oooh - Glastonbury on TV - I'll wave to Lady-Liberty! Hope she's having a fantastic time.

Love and hugs.

Valli

Evening! Really pleased today as I have had a cheque from Flybe to cover the costs of the extra nights in Belfast for both dad and I Brilliant as I wasn't really expecting to get it and it is for just over £250

Baby furries are all well and I have found someone who will take at least a couple off my hands when they are big enough. The 2 older babbies are called Jet (hope you don't mind, Natty!) and Misty, and Jet is now living happily with his daddy! Little babbies look like being 4 black and 4 grey.

Hope L-L is having a fab time at Glastonbury.

kazw - your niece will have a great time. I did when I went and I was only 18!

Toots - so pleased you had a lovely day; hugs and prayers for you xx

valli - I still have all 10 of my reports to write but, thankfully, they don't have to be in until Mon 5th. It seems to take ages to write them.

And I need to move classrooms in the last week of term. I am have nine 5 and 6 year olds next year - a completely new class for me but much more my sort of thing

soappie - have the chickens got names yet? They do look quite cute

GnB - I clapped and screamed and waved at Ritchie for you

And I was front row for Seth Lakeman on HMS Warrior Only about 100 people - it was fab!

I'm sure I've missed loads as I've only been skim reading so congrats, Happy Birthdays, love, hugs and prayers to all as needed xx

Nope. I remember opening it.. and putting it onthe cupboard and it has disappeared I have searched everywhere.. I only have 3 or 4 places I keep paperwork so it is probable it has been chucked out.. Ggrrrr

I have sewn up some more of squeaks cardies and put them in the baby wash pile.. and I have no more baby wool.. except some BRIGHT pink aran which I don't think is suitable.. and I can't find a pattern I like to do one for Tiddles..
