    Sockdrawer .. I don't know if it will help you but the Family Fund might be able to help? they do grants etc for people who are struggling to provide the stuff they need.. might be worth a shot?

    Thanks Pigpen I'll have a look at that. You guys have been sooooo helpful!!! Have texted my sis to see if she meets the criteria x

    Hi,

    Only 1 thing ticked off my list today-nothing from flyadies! I've been out for the evening with friends as it was a DFs 50th today. I am sooo exhausted - probably all the talking! Oh and the huge amounts I ate!
    Will try and fly after work tomorrow.
    night all

  • I had my scan earlier and found out we are having another boy! :j

    When we got home DH cooked dinner while I tidied up toys/clothes etc, then before I sat down to eat my dinner I quickly put the pans etc in the lovely clean & empty dishwasher - my kitchen still looks lovely and tidy!

    Can't wait to keep going tomorrow :D

    PigPen, any chance of putting tomorrows list up asap as I want to crack on with that asap so that ive done as much as possible before going away.

    thanks

    If you have toffee/sugar/caramel sauces stuck on a pan add water to the pan and boil.. tip away when the water is boiling repeat as needed, this melts the caramel ingredients into the water an voila.. gone..

  • jjef huge (((hugs))) honey for you and the awful memories and for your uncle who must be devastated.

    fedup well done for coping with the unexpected trigger today - that is a good sign - you are obviously in control even though it did give you a nasty moment or 2 (((hugs)))

    sockdrawer its the same here - no money - my OT in the hospital recommended that i get a hospital bed but there is a waiting list as long as your arm so if I want one I will have to buy it myself!

    jenagain oooooooh how lovely - are you happy with another boy - silly question just ignore me:rotfl: you had better take good care of yourself or you will have the flylady bus full of angry internet aunties descending on you:eek::rotfl:

    pigpen well done with the listing - you used to do loads so I am sure you will get back into it and clear some 'really useful stuff' and make some money too.

    past my bedtime again :(

    night all - sleep well.

    hugs to all the poorlies.
    special love to LadyL xx
