Can I be added to the list please? I have spent all weekend cleaning my pigsty of a house due to it being valued tomorrow and want to keep on top of it now
greenbee good to see you posting again - we were wondering where you were.
serena hurry up and get well soon vibes for your DH - must get that wardrobe done soon!
Mumto5 ouch! hope it feels better quickly (((hugs)))
ashia - you naughty person - get back on the wagon and dont fall off until the New Year at least!!!!!:D:p:rotfl: good to see you and nice to hear you have a puddy cat!
Natty68 thanks for the swap list - when it comes x
Quillion it is brilliant to see you and a new house!!!! Brilliant :T I am sorry honey that your Ex is being a PITA - I am not much good with advice there but you know I will always lend an ear - pm or email me if you need to - your J is little and impressionable and his daddy is using nasty tactics (spoiling him!) to turn him against you - be strong honey and go and see solicitor/mediator before it gets out of hand. is his room in the new house decorated as J would like it - maybe something that will make it seem nicer? I am sure the others will help better. ((((hugs))))
LadyL (((hugs))) and loads of special love as always - You are always part of the lists - you are in with the bricks:rotfl: now dont you go overdoing the ironing - maybe Ds will do some when he is home for the hols to keep you up to date. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
AnW's Mum ooops :rotfl: and you just have signed up thank you!!!! and what about our personal challenge - hows the RoD????:p:p:p:p:p:D:D:D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I should really iron DDs uniform but I'm achy & tired so I'm going to be naughty and do it tomorrow morning.
I'm off for a bath & to turn DDs CD off. I don't particularly want to be listening to Disney songs while soaking my back :rotfl:
Catch you all in the morning as I'm going to jump into my nice toasty clean bed when I'm done in the bath
Night all xxCreeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Thank you ladies for the thread this week.
Toots count me in for the ironing challenge it definetly helped me having no ironing last new year so aiming for the same this week.
pigpen thanks for the list will post mine in the morning once i see what the weather has done over night - really hoping for a snow day off tomorrow going by the weather forecast for over night i may get one.
Greenbee - nice to see you posting was wondering where you had gone.
On that note where is soappie?
Toots - how has your snow been today noticed P got a mention a lot on the travel news for road closures.
Our day has been spent snowman making and sledging I always think in this weather housework gets pushed aside and play comes to the front (please dont let on to FCC) Anyway went to the pub for dinner (instead of cooking) with friends and had a lovely meal and then walked home in a snow shower.
Heading to bed now to dream of lots of snow falling!! If so i may be on during the day tomorrow.0 -
