    I'm going to lurk only .. Went for a bike ride, fell off & broke my arm :(

    Ouch! I hope you heal quickly xxxx

    Today I have cleaned out both sets of furries and played with them for ages :D The 3 littlies still need names - I'm sure soappie will think it's rude of me to call them 'the brown one', 'splodgy' and 'stripey'!!! It took me long enough to name the others though ............

    I think the chocolate theme is a good one - or you could diversify into ice cream - ben and jerry, neapolitan, vanilla.....

    I must stop thinking about this planning app. It pops into my head and my blood pressure goes up. I must learn to partition...

    Morning All

    The kids are having friends over this afternoon so the house will probably be more wrecked than it is now. I was supposed to be going to M&S to pick an order up but I don't think I can fit it in - might have to wait until Wednesday.

    Lots to do although I may make a start by sticking to the list and doing the kitchen first.

    Onestep - hope it heals quickly and they've given you plenty of painkillers.

    G&B - hope all goes well this week.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Onestep - Ouch! - Healing vibes on their way. Have you been given proper painkillers?
    pigpen - going to the pub more important than a commitment to his children????? Please try and organise something so you can get the treatments you need. The family needs you at your strongest.

    kaz - :eek: What time did you start?

    OK I am here, hopefully I will get a bit further with things this week!
    Starting with the kitchen is usual for me on a Monday anyway. So thats a positive.
    I have some new tea towels, I treated myself to, and so I want to wash them, and get them out. (They dont dry until they have been washed!).
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    morning peeps!

    I'm in - thanks to all at flylady central command.

    Well - the house is starting to look better - and people are noticing! Our bedroom needs a good declutter (ie i need to throw away some of OH's c**p ) but the rest is surprisingly good!

    A bit wheezy today - OH's fault - I asked him to empty the Dyson because I have asthma...and he got stuck and asked me to help - just as he got it sorted - clouds of dust obviously!:mad::mad::mad:

    Well he obviously needs more practise!

    Here's hoping the rain is just a shower...because I've got 2 loads of washing ready to go on the line!:A:A

    nothing really planned for today...but I will get some decluttering done before the kids wake up!

    Pigpen - positive eviction vibes for yourself and vibes of a particularly painful nature to KH!

    I feel completely intimidated by the huge amount there is to do in my house. I’m hoping that I’ll do better than last week – but at least I’ve started. Your lists are a life-lineJ
    cazzab three under 5s – no wonder you’re tired!

    Gunsandbanjos & sexymouse very best wishes to you and your families
    MrsChaos good luck to DS!
    Onestep wishing you quick healing.
    Kazwookei what is your secret – I need some of it.
    Good luck with evicting Squeak pigpen.
    In addition to other suggestions: Maribel (Spanish mixture of Maria and Isobel),Misela (pronounced Mishella – Latvian), Tyrone. My mother worked with someone called Archibald Bunion.
    Get well soon all those that are ill, thinking of you all

    Thanks again all involved in list-making, Cheers x

    Morning all

    I am in again this week-thanks to al at flylady central.
    Well didn't do to well last week although did keep the kitchen and living room tidy as had a visitor over a few times last week and didn't want him thinking I was a slob ;).

    Social worker coming round tomorrow regarding fostering so hope the children behave.

    Well XH phoned yesterday and has told me that his girlfriend has died and the funeral is today. Wouldn't wish this on anyone but has said now that he wants to spend more time with the children which is good but not sure how he plans on explaining everything to the children.
