Hello,
I am a bit late joining in today as I have had a lazy start to the day.
DH started work again today, first work since snow in November!
cyclingyorkie Sorry you had a wasted and expensive trip to the hospital. But good that you had lunch out with DD.
kazwookie Hugs and get well prayers for you.
Shysarah I wish I could blow away that black dog of yours. I am feeling more positive today, don't know why.
I took lots of advice on here last week and went back to all the banks I could think of on Friday re. loan and now have a bank looking at the possibility at much reduced rates of the trust who turned us down. So a huge thank you to those who encouraged me not to give up.
I have a docs appt tomorrow too and could do with some prayers, good vibes etc. Hoping it is nothing.

mrs_B it wasn't me who suggested setting the alarm clock half an hour earlier, although I think it's a fab idea!! There are 2 of us on here who are taking things one step at a time - me (onestep) & 1 step closer. Two different fledging flyladies
Flying wise, I've done to level 3 on the list, am gobsmackedand planted some pots up with last minute daffodil bargain bulbs. Also weeded a new bed, near the greenhouse. I want a shrub to go in the middle of it, haven't decided what yet. Suggestions anyone? Can be up to 1m high & wide.
Off to collect DD from the bus.. Flying in the snug this evening.
Hugs, spoons, & BIG sticks for any BDs

Or do I not do exercise and blast two lots tomorrow??? Because then I'll be working it off? Cant go too mad with it at the moment. Ahh maybe he'll like a night time walk for 30 mins? Could I convince him it would be romantic??"I know that Prince Charming doesn’t come save me, we save each other and fight back to back against all comers that’s what marriage is to me.

I'm one of those crafters going under the acronym SABLE
"stash above & beyond life expectancy"
Hence the mega declutter which is designed to dispose of the higher fruit - the stuff you need ladders for or a bit of determination because it's got emotional baggage - as well as the low hanging fruit which has laregly been picked. So I did 2 hours of ironing yesterday and today.
Off to make tea. As they said in Winnie the Pooh:

Poohbear - Good vibes and flylady support for your Dr's appointment tomorrow.
Shysarah - my cat would love to have a play with that lot!
Kazwookie - hope you feel better
It appears I was only ranting about my lazy family a couple of threads ago. Sadly for the older boys nothing has changed. 5 loads of washing picked up from the floor of their bedrooms. There are enough cups, glasses, plates and cutlery up there for a full dishwasher load. I have filled 2 carrier bags with crisp, sweet, biscuit, chocolate wrappers and another bag with empty drink bottles. I am :mad:
