    All done except the oven shelves :D

    I'm really pleased with myself today.

    Since being medically retired over a year ago, things have slipped considerably on the home front. It's easy to get out of a routine but oh so hard to get motivated again.

    My kitchen looks fantastic and I'm looking forward to tomorrows list, I'll really sleep tonight that's for sure.

    Goodnight everyone

    Hello lovely ladies

    Just wanted to pop in and say hello to you all. Am not flying much or posting at the present as struggling with things. Have realised just how much my DS was holding me up/together before he went away and although DD and I are spending more time doing stuff it hasnt filled the void I still feel. DH and I seem to be further apart than ever so am spending my time concentrating efforts at home. I know my problems are only small compared to what some people have to deal with but they still need dealing with none the less.

    I do think about you all every day as I consider you all my friends who have supported me ever since I arrived so long ago, Pigpen, Lilme, Toots, Dusty, Valli, embb, chamichelle, and rach to name but a few.

    Love and hugs to all who need them especially LadyLiberty, MSD, and the lovely Toots

    Keep up the good work and I hope to 'see' you all again soon x
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!

    LL - hugs for you, hope the bruises are fading after your fall. I think maybe we should both try the fairy dust on her as long as it doesn't interfere with the xrays!!!

    You've got it ;) Stripes isn't JUST a dog .... I think we have all "adopted" her on this thread .... so the flylady power will see her thru ... stay strong sweetie ... I'm on the end of the phone if you want to offload xxx
