Hi all, need to get out of bed, had terrible stomach ache last night and this morning, starting to feel a little better so will get up in a mo and do a HHC.
Lovely idea Natty, I don't send christmas cards any more so will pass on your lovely gesture but I know this part of the flylady year is very important and special to a lot of regular flyladies so thanks again for organising it.:T:kisses3:
Today I mainly have to parcel and post some ebay stuff, buy some more envelopes, collect DD2 from her school trip.....oh and sort out the house.
New bedroom...reasonable
DD2's ...pitsville
Dining room...pitsville
Kitchen....semi pitsville
other bedroom...ok as being decorated
Bathroom...so far no leaking ceiling but we need a real downpour to test the latest roofing fix to see if its worked.
If I have the time and inclination I'd also like to start christmas stocking filler shopping.DFW Nerd 267. DEBT FREE 11.06.08
