  • Hi everyone

    Thanks for all the good wishes: I'm very touched. :blushing:

    Must go to bed now, though I'm feeling a little nervous still, and rather awake. DD has worked sooooo hard for this audition and it means so much to her. The pieces sounded beautiful tonight, so she just has to do it again tomorrow, just the same way.

    Hope all the arrangements work (that's my nightmare!). I've checked the time, and filled up the car with petrol, and rung the accompanist just to make sure...:o

    Just need to sleep now. Will try turning off the computer and taking a hot water bottle to bed. DH is away, so no one to snuggle or to reassure! :(

    Back tomorrow. Night all

  • Right, Nose back to the grindstone - I am here all day tomorrow and shall be flying (gently) I think I will do 1/2 of each hour to start with so that I dont over do it, and see how I go. I will try and do some of the list and some de-cluttering. Must go and find a list ... back soon

    Not as much as i would have liked but better than last week, the threat of mules seems to be effective. :o i thought mules referred to stubborn donkeys (ie me sitting on backside instead of flying) hence the carrots. Thanks for breaking it to me gently, you must all have been in hysterics:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    When is next free listings on ebay ... i've got a large bag of carrots to sell:D

    love and hugs to all in need, Hope Tuesday is sunny for all flyladies.

    Howdy folks :) I'm in again this week, and hopefully I'll make it past Tuesday this time :o

    Sorry, I haven't caught up with all the posts, as if I attempt to do that,I just won't get anywhere ....

    I've finally figured out, that Tuesday has got to be a combination of things ... my lazy day, my exceptionally organised day and my day of flying, it could be an interesting experiment tomorrow !!

    I work (paid) .. Mon/Thurs/Fri, I go to college on Wed 1pm-9pm ..

    I work (unpaid) on Dh's businesses admin (Tues)

    We're also running a half marathon in SF in November, and I need, need, need to put some time in actually, y'know .. running ... oh and if I could lose 2stone as well, that'd be a bonus.

    I just need to get myself a little more organised, but I'll get there :)

    Ok, so where are we at:
