    I'll join in the ironing challenge - see how I go on. OOH stars - not sure if I'll manage any - I was never very good at them before and now I've got to fit dog walking into the mix as well. Maybe if we end up with some snow days I'll be able to crack on. Must remember to move the rubbish out of the kitchen tonight - meant to do it last night but forgot so Jerry had emptied it when I got up this morning!

    Thanks to all at FCC.

    Hugs

    I'm in again this week and :j:j for the stars.:rotfl:

    Been to my sister's and had a lovely beef dinner. Spent the whole time worrying what the road would be like on the way back, turns out it wasn't so bad. Hubby has found grit for tomorrow morning so kiddies will be at school and hubby has a hospital appointment. Need to be up early to get it done before the school run. :D

    Kids now in bedroom messing about, just waiting for the hot water then i'll get them scrubbed. Wm and td on with another load to do for tonight.

    Once kids in bed i'll make a start on the list.

    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    I don't think I have ever been so organised to be here on Sunday night. The benefits of an offspring and brother free weekend. :D

    DB manage to get through from the A1 via Piercebridge and Barnie. He says he did a lot of sliding about but as there were no other cars on the road he managed, just!

    When I was teaching in Ipswich we were told to go to our nearest school and my friend did that to be treated like a total idiot and told to go away. I hope things have improved since then.

    I am looking forward to attempting achieving a star or two this week. DH is here and unable to work so I will get him on task in the morning.

    Just finished my ironing :D

    Thanks as always to everyone for the lists and support.

    Toots - special thanks for the stars, a generous and I suspect very time consuming offer on your part. I will try my best to earn some this week.

    The boys are so excited by the new beds that they have spent most of today playing upstairs, and have now gone to bed early. Can we have new beds every week.....?

    thanks Hex you used to be a star performer on the stars but I know you are struggling with pain just now so dont overdo it - bless your boys - I hope the excitement doesnt wear off too soon. (((hugs))) when will you get results from last week's tests??

    will go add the new flyers to the ironing challenge list - well done for trying!!!!

    and then I am back to ebaying - have been trying to do a bit everyday and I have had some good sales which is helping with the presie buying!!!

    toots xx
    Peace will be mine

    Evening all

    Just popping in to ask if I could be added to the ironing challenge, please. DH keeps on top of it most of the time, but eases off when I'm not at work, so I'll pick up the slack. It was really good to get it done last year and I was only thinking about it the other day.
    Thanks for starting it, toots.

    Back to lurking now. Hugs, spoons and sticks all around!

    Evening ladies

    Thanks to all for putting this thread together, I really must try harder to get in and post as I dont think I made it on at all last week so not up to date with anything.

    Boddy - I know its very late but I hope your dear mum's funeral went well, I was thinking of you on Monday, and I love your pic of her. Big hugs xx

    Ok I'm up for x factor and I'm a sleb now so need to fly .........................

    Love to LadyLIb, Toots, MSD and any others who need big hugs xx
