    Well so much for my plans for the garden,

    so that I can garden today.

    I decided at 10am to tackle my filing piles (hidden in various places around the house). There was stuff from 2006 onwards:eek:, and it has taken me the whole day! I'm just waiting for DD to go to sleep so that I can take my boxes of files upstairs and put them away and I shall be shredding whilst I watch the Apprentice.
    I do feel better for having done it, and now plan to do it every 3 months-will someone remind me in february:D.

  • Just putting my head round the door, I've not posted because I have a house full of ill people, and I have it too, so keeping my head down and wings firmly at my side. (although I do seem to be doing a lot of thread reading.....)

    Textiles, languages, travel and a lovely home are not stupid things to want. You have immediate family's support.Appreciate what I've achieved so far. Other people's opinion of me is none of my business.

    I'm afraid I'm a bit of a hoarder (I'll never be a true flylady:rotfl:) so I keep lots and lots-far too much I think but its interesting to look back and see how much stuff was years ago-how sad do I sound now!!!

  • :hello: Thank you so much to everyone for my birthday wishes. I have had a really lovely day. I went for a nice lunch with DH & DD and then a nice bit of retail therapy.

    When we got home I had a lovely cake from penelope penguin which was absolutely delicious (#344), thankyou so much.

    Wishing a speedy recovery for shysarah and "sleepy vibes" for all those who needs them.

    See you all tomorrow,

    xx

    umm.. you could try some ovenmate?! I'm a convert!

    Am doing OK on the lists this week (so far!) - hope it lasts for the rest of the week! Got my MIL coming for the w/e, so will be doing her bedroom/bathroom tomorrow, then downstairs will be the focus on Friday. Should sort out some meal plans too.

    Hope everyone is doing OK?
