    Yey DH salary has hit the bank account (only due today but we needed it in there)

    Freecycler takers on all items offered so that will be more stuff going this week.

    Anyone need a couple of pairs of ski/wellie socks size 9-1? Little bobbly but very warm/useful.

    DS2 has dried the downstairs condensation. I'll put the washing out, finish the dailies and then onto the boxes of clothes to sort on the landing.

    Mornin' all!

    Hope everyone is ok. Lovely & sunny here this morning but chilly, brrrr!

    One load pegged out, another in the WM almost finished.
    Woke up in the night with a migraine & am still feeling a little bruised, but at least it's half-term!

    I'm in! Did loads yesterday but when DS spilt a glass of coke over the pile of ironed clothes I gave up!!

    Lots of people coming to stay this week, 5 kittens roaming the house, DS off school for half term, loads of paperwork to do (Car was written off so loads of 'stuff' to sort!)

    Keep Calm and carry on!

    Morning all,

    Will try to be in properly this week - am determined to get all lists done to at least level 2. Pleased it's starting with the living room, as that has suffered the most from cluttering recently due to my shopping sprees.

    Get well soon vibes for Serena.

    Calming and positive vibes for vanilla and her DD - hope the head takes the letter seriously.

    Just had a phonecall from the head at the private school to say the teacher I was covering for has been given the all clear by her neurologist and will be back to work on Monday, which is great for her, but a shame for me. Still, he said that I'm number one on the supply list - he hopes he won't need any supply, but if they do, he knows I'll do a really good job, which is nice. He thanked me for everything I did for them too.

    Well I've had cuddles with Ebony (he's got all affectionate in the last couple of days - think it's because we went to the Cat and Rabbit Rescue Fair yesterday and were talking about getting him a friend, and he's trying to show us they aren't needed), and he's since gone out in the cold. I'm still in PJs, so need to wash my hair, have breakfast, and then will make a start on the list. I also need to change the sheets on the bed and wash the bedlinen.

    Welcome to all the new flyladies, and the returners.
