    Hi All :wave:

    I am in again this week, thanks to all at FCC for the lists as usual. I never managed any start last week, I had some news last week that I didn't know how to deal with and it kind of took over my week and I couldn't concentrate on anything.

    I am off work today as I was stuck on the M74 on the way home from work for 10 hours :eek: yesterday with DS in car, he was brilliant, but got a bit upset as he thought we wouldn't get home, and he was hungry but thought that doing a pee-pee in a plastic bottle was fun :rotfl: Mobile ran out of battery and only had a little bit of diesel left in the car:eek:. We go home just before midnight so it was a long day:eek:

    Anyways, I am going to use today to blitz the house, I will work off Monday and Tuesdays list and then use last weeks list for the rest of the week as I really need to get myself in gear!!

    Hope you are all doing well and braving the cold, our whole town has come to a standstill!! Special love and hugs as always to Lady-L, Toots & Diva xx

    Thanks for sorting this flylady it saves me time as tend to procrastinate about what to clean/tidy rather than just doing it!

    Morning all,

    Well I was given a full day today last night, which was then promptly taken away, as apparently the school had offered it to the supply in school yesterday (why did they bother asking the agency to find someone then?!), so I've got a half day again this afternoon at another school. On the positive side though, I had time to wash my hair this morning, and aired the bedroom whilst I was in the shower as it was getting a bit smelly from lack of air circulation. I did make sure that I covered the cat up with the dressing gown so that he wouldn't get cold though, which he seems to have appreciated (he's still there even though I've closed the window now).

    I'm off to put another load of washing in the WM in a minute after I've dried my hair, then over to page 1 to see what is on the list today.

    Happy flying everyone, get well to all of the poorlies, and keep warm everyone.
