    agreed! Pen Pen who is your avatar picture now?


    Its Nigel Pargetter from The Archers, isn't it?

    In the biggest shocker of the year, he sadly fell off the roof and passed on.

    Not cried so much since Phil Archer passed on. **sob**

    What are you knitting?

    An olive green snood. It's not very nice wool to knit with, a bit tight if that makes sense. I'm still only a beginner.

    :(:( Was going really well. folded load from tumble dryer, hoovered kitchen, dining, hall, utility room floors. Tried to hoover stairs and bashed my poorly hand.

    Oouch healing vibes for you.

    Carsberg - hugs for you

    Sold 2 of my ebay items and won an item I was bidding on at the last minute so happy with that :j

    Off to bed now, see you all tomorrow.

    Wasn't going to post tonight as I've barely been home all day but I left the list with DH and he's been a star and made the bedroom look beautiful. So, he tells me...

    Level One - Done! :j
    Level Two - Done! :j
    And from the extras - flat surfaces all look clear and lovely

    And it only took him half an hour apparently (yeah, right!)
    Don;t you dare ask about her peg habits :naughty:

    I've got to ask - I'm only a newbie and I've heard of all sorts of habits - drugs, yes; alcohol, yes; nicotine, yes. I've heard you can even have a cleaning habit... But I have no idea how you can have any kind of habit connected with a peg - could someone explain for the uninitiated here...?

    Dippy - hope you feel better soon - hugs
    Carlsberggal - hello, nice to see you, come back soon, hugs for whatever's happening
    Pooh - sorry to hear about your loan
    Mumto5 - hugs for you too

    Flying - watched tv and watched DH fall asleep on the sofa - guess who isn't going to wake him [insert evil laugh lol] I have also filled DW, washed up non DW bits, wiped worktops and fed dog

    Dad has not had a very good day - back on the big mask and blood gases are low again, seems like its 1 step forward and 2 back, DH is working late shift tomorrow so won't be able to see Dad until Friday as it tires him out too much if kiddies go with me

    Love and hugs to all

    Hi everyone

    am having major PC issues (again!! :eek:) so catching up on the phone. Hugs & spoons for those that need them (greenbee, shysarah, helenjelly). Feeling a bit flat, i haven't had chance to do much flying, & it's getting me down. Hopefully I'll get tomorrow afternoon to catch up. We're sleeping in the spare room at the moment as our room is being decorated.
    It's been a beautiful day, so Dad & I have been in the garden instead. I have very swish new paving between the greenhouse and my shed now :D

    see you tomorrow

    re pegs - I believe some flyladies have to use matching(colour wise) pegs on items of clothing..

  • re pegs - I believe some flyladies have to use matching(colour wise) pegs on items of clothing..


    Oh, ok - that's not as scary as I thought it might be. Not sure I have 2 pegs of the same colour though - mine are a bit of a mish mash (pretty much like everything else around here). However, thinking about it, I can totally see how matching colours could become a habit! Almost looking forward to doing some more washing to see if it's going to get the better of me...:D
