Jellie wobbles into her MFW journey

Jellie,

Can you borrow test tube racks from the school? Presumably you are not marrying in the school day when they are needed?

Just a crazy thought that might work?

*Jellie*

Thanks Katsu- only problem is they look a bit battered and it is a bit risky using things that have been in contact with chemicals in a restaurant. Will have to talk to technicians as to whether they could be cleaned well enough. The other problem is that each rack would look silly if it didn't have several test tubes and the more test tubes in each arrangement the more flowers etc which pushes costs up. Ideally I want as few test tubes per arrangement as possible- simple and low cost is the plan! Great idea though and i will keep it as a back up plan!

Need to clean the whole house today as we haven't touched it in weeks. Am doing a flylady job on it so it is taking long time. Almost finished lounge- just need to polish the leather sofas. Having a quick break on here then another HHC with some music on!

I should have thought a run through the dishwasher on a hot wash would do it, or buy new and then flog them to school afterwards?

Or...get some strongish wire and a pair of pliers and make a little swan-stand type thing? Will try to find a pic.



eta only smaller, obv!!

Do you really think I could manage that? Looks amazing but I don't have a clue how to start! Would be great if I could make something like that.

Almost finished cleaning second room. Feeling a bit under the weather so taking plenty of breaks! Time for lunch and another HHC on next room.

Or maybe one of the technicians would like to moonlight and is handy with a soldering iron?

*Jellie*

DT technician is a possibility- I'll chat to him again when we get back. Thanks for the ideas.

Onto the third room cleaning- taking ages, aaaargh!

*Jellie*

Nearly finished cleaning- will Hoover upstairs and wash bathroom floor tomorrow morning!

Still need to get more food shopping and tons of cooking to do :eek: not sure when I'll fit it in as we're out at my brothers tomorrow and at mums Xmas day! Oh well- it will be ok!

Bit worrying how many science teachers are around this board. I'd only realised fairly recently you were too.

*Jellie*

I'd spotted a fair number of teachers- just didn't realise we were all science! For some bizarre reason that makes me smile!
