    Battled through with ebay and listed my 3 items, lost the will to do anymore.

    To the ironing.

    Greenbee - I have a trust one to do for Mum plus mine so maybe a bit busy especially as that website always seems to give me hassle; actually I think I have to do a paper one for the trust, even more arduous.

    hi all

    I am in again this week - it is working for me posting rather than lurking - i have a tidy and clean downstairs but will try and do the upstairs as well this week...

    I now have typed up my morning and afternoon routines as well and posted them on the fridge so DH can help... I did have old ones posted up but they were 3 years of date and had clean the potty and wipe the highchair on them and did not have school related things such as check homework, make packed lunches, make bread etc...

    so now they are up to date DH has no excuse for not helping with them...

    anyway i have just made a gigantic to do list for monday which will take me a week to get through...so i had better go to bed so i can start before dawn tomorrow..

    take care everyone

    :wave: hi all :)

    I'm in again....finished everything last week apart from paperwork :o Got absolutely loads still to do, but it must be done. Think I will be doing mostly paperwork tomorrow (after I have finished my list, of course!) Instead of putting my list up several times in the week, I will just come back and edit this one.

    Anyway, doing my budget for the year (tried to do last years so I could have an idea of what I would be saving but :eek: so thought that is past, move on!)

    I'll add my thanks to FCC for keeping us all going and all the posters too :)

    Happy flying xxx

    I'm in but almost certainly won't have time to keep up with the thread so please don't think i'm being rude just dipping in and out:o

    Helen - Massive hugs, you must be very stressed, hope your dad is on the mend soon.

    Hugs for Hex too, you sound thoroughly fed up.

    Hope everyone else is ok, been too busy to read everything, just skimmed a few pages.
