    Afternoon ladies

    Onestep - have a wonderful birthday

    valli - hugs, I feel your pain. We have had so many broken windows, lumps out of walls etc etc. Can you remove the phone, not pay it was a while?

    Serena how is DD now?

    Helen jelly hugs for you coping with your Dad's ill health, been there so I know just how you feel. If it's an consolation the kids will cope, mine did at 2/8/10 xx

    Not got very far today, just spoken to my sis for an hour who has had some not great health news (piggers if there is space in your inbox I'll pm you later if that is ok)

    DH/DS1 have done their chores. Off to the shower now and then:
    s&s bathrooms
    make bread
    put washing out
    reload wm
    an hour in the garden tidying up
    go and get christmas tree

    Count me in for 1.30. I have been working at it all morning and I could do with a bit of a sit down :o.

    I know I will be sore and tired tomorrow but I can't live with this mess anymore, and no one else will do it.

    ETA - why not start a 12 days of christmas cleaning discussion on the Flylady group and I (and anyone else who wants to join in) can come and play over there?

    Mmm that's not a bad idea, although I do have my christmas challenge on the first page - to have all the christmas stuff done and house cleaned by midday 24th December :) Would the 12 days of cleaning be something like that..?

    I do wonder how many people wander over to the Flylady Group these days as it seems there is hardly any posts over there.

    I'm going to play the Glee Christmas album while doing the HHC, that way I think it will make me more christmassy.. I was going to play Annie Lennox Christmas album but that is way too slow, I need a faster one I think.
