Sorry haven't had chance to catch up with the thread

Happy Birthdays and love and hugs to all

RANT ALERT

I'm having a bad time at the moment, why is it that Church persons refuse to listen to you when you are telling them the deceased persons last wishes and instead want to do what other members of the family want - those family members who don't have a flippin clue either!!

Undertakers are just as bad!!

Decisions here that have been made are as follows;

1. Write down what you want for the funeral - in detail
2. Let ALL your family know what you have done
3. Let ALL your family know who it is that will be arranging the funeral

If the above isn't done you leave a whole lot of extra heartache in your wake

FED UP beyond believe and I haven't even had time to start thinking about how much he is missed

Just had a text from school saying that my son was absent from morning registration!! Would love to know where he is as I walked him to school this morning and watched him go in!!! Suggest they find him!! Bloody numpties

just to say that my Mum took me to school watched me go through the gates into the building and would then leave and go to work,
not seeing me go through the building out the other side and out the other gate and would likewise get a call asking where I was. I always was good at walking out of school from the age of 5, I would just walk out and some older child would have to come and find me and take me back.

Hello flylady friends,

My sister is 40 today, there's only 54 weeks between us and some short sighted people think we are twins.

I like the dead and dying tops task on today's list. I'm going to a swishing party tonight but will leave the those ones behind!

I need to do HHI x 500 (where does it all come from).

Going to go and rummage in my summer clothes box to see what I can swish tonight. If it doesn't fit then it's going. I have several pairs of shoes to get shot off. Mychest has grown in the last year and I have lots of bits that are too tight in the bust area:o. All this decluttering is good I just mustn't bring too much back with me!

Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining Mess
Level Three
Wipe the tops of the wall units.. lining them with old wallpaper or newspaper keeps them clean!
wash windows!

Extras

1. Wash light shades and clean bulbs
2. Sort out and restock baking cupboards
3. Wash the vacuum cleaner innards, noonoo's, brushes and filters.. do not reassemble until completely dry!!

Tuesday ~ Living/Family/Reception room
Level One
Declutter and vacuum floor!
Wipe sticky grubby marks from sofas
Level Two

Vacuum under furniture you can safely move.. we have bit of a baby boom on at the moment so please all be careful!!!
Wash any smelly soft furnishings (this may include pets and OH's)
Level Three
Clear and wipe firesurround..
Polish any glass.. screens, pictures, ornaments mirrors etc
Extras

1. Vacuum fluff from the fire and behind the radiator
2. Binbag dance

Wednesday ~ Master bedroom
Level Two
Wash the curtains/nets and clean the window before rehanging them!
Level Three
If it hasn't been done in a while vacuum and turn the mattress

Helen - sounds like a real nightmare Try to get some time for you :grouphug:

Only caught the end of the fred, so Hugs and Spoons and Sticks as required.

DH has re-attacked the kitchen, the oven is now done :j
Lounge still needs a hoover and I must train these dogs to put back toys after they've played with them. Rather than thinking that I'm playing fetch when I chuck toys in the toy box :rotfl:
Have done 40 mins dance workout. OMG I ache from yesterday, but I have decided I'll take up me horsey lessons again as thats a thing for me. So I'll need to drop a little weight and get a bit fitter. (they're looking for volunteers at the stables - but we'll see if I can get back in the saddle first)
Have to keep on top of the down stairs this week, we have company on Sunday.
Main bedroom isnt soo bad but I've got some biggest @rse to watch so I'll declutter that whilst I'm pottering up there.

And the tyre man's just been. Was expecting a huge bill for new tyre (big @rsed screw in the tread). But he's looked at it, checked the tyre, removed the screw. Safety checked again and not charged us a penny!!! :T:T:T:T Mind you he's had a fair bit of business from us and seems like everyone in the street uses him now and way better than sitting in the garage waiting

Hello flylady friends,

My sister is 40 today, there's only 54 weeks between us and some short sighted people think we are twins.

There were 51 weeks between my older sister and I.. sadly she died as an infant.. though probaly not sad for me because I wouldn't have been born had she not died.. sad but true!

People regularly thought DS2 and DD2 were twins as he was tiny, there is 18 months between them.. things got silly when people thought those 2 and DS3 (3 years younger than DS2) were triplets!!!! I think some people are just stupid.. though it is an easy enough mistake to make with adults who don't change much but the differences are huge with small children. People often think DD1 (16) and DD2 (13) are twins too.. or just get them mixed up..

School phoned me back to apologise and tell me he was infact in school and it must of been an "admin" error!!! Like I said previously......numpties!!! haha

Curtains colouring nicely in the WM
