For what it is worth I don't think your DH had any choice but to say something under the circumstances. If they get on well how could he just sit there and listen to your BIL making all those plans?

Well not done alot from my list since my last posting. Cleared the kitchen put the bunnies out, argued with OH & drank Tea.

Brushed down all the curtains as they didn't need washing. Got workmen in to mend a leak that we've had between the floors of the flats for 9 YEARS!! We've had a bowl strategically placed in the 'loft' space that we had to keep emptying (OH had many unplanned showers when he moved the bowl when it was very full). Maintenance Agent has tried everything to get it repaired (frequently needing scaffolding to our 7th floor) - thank goodness it is covered by our service charge - but probably explains why the charge is so high. Builder thinks he's come up with a solution to divert the leak away from us - we don't care what they do as long as we stop having rainwater coming through into the hall. No doubt I'll need to repeat the flylady list all over again as there. Away tonight for a long weekend.

Hugs to anyone who needs one

Morning all

Not caught up yet properly but I've got as far as reading that Soappie has a new job - I'm so pleased

I've done the bathroom/toilet today so that's everything cleaned once, tomorrow I'll give the living room another dust/vacuum so I don't have to worry over the weekend.

I'm trying not to put the heating on while I'm on my own today, but my hands are sooooo cold.

Tis sunny though


Happy Birthday juliejim

JulieJim Happy Birthday! Hope you had a lovely time at the school play and enjoy your day xxx

Pigpen :rotfl::rotfl:you go girl!!!! :rotfl::rotfl:

I've abandoned the lists as I had to tackle the utility room which was turing into a clothes jungle. It's taken me 2 hours but looks alot better now.

Off to have a manicure before a weekend of partying. So I won't be doing much more flying for fear of chipping varnish!

I might tackle a bit of present wrapping before school run. We have a theatre company coming into school for a Pantomime so I'm going to watch it with the little ones.
