    Evening Flybabes. Happy Belated Birthday Pigpen. I hope your hubby and army of kids gave you a well deserved day off and spoilt you rotten. Nicki thanks for the book suggestions, thought after Xmas my Amazon wish list would be shorter :rolleyes:

    House is a bit of a shambles but I'm dead proud I cooked my first ever Xmas dinner and for 10 people!! Didn't quite do it on my own as team effort with DH. I'm gonna try and establish a Control Journal and weekly routine that attempts to follow Flylady for adapting at the start of the new year. In the meantime lots of tidying up and washing to do :(

    Wow Nicki that is brilliant, I was expecting good but that is fab, I would have loved that when I was little. I love the study, will she put Mam sat in front of the PC like my son did when he was using another childs dolls house ? lol

    Well I did get to do a little shopping, so didn't get everything done, will get my backside in gear before new year!

    It's beautiful Nicki!
    It must have been hard work but I'm sure it'll have been worth every minute.

    Morning Flybabes & Flyboy!

    Nicki - congratulations that is a beautiful dolls house. Your DD is extremely lucky I would have loved to have had such an amazing dolls house when I was a girl.

    Well, two jobs today - tidy up and do some bl**dy washing. Now I know why Flylady says do a load a day. Oh and I'm off to the doctors as I've just done a pregnancy test...
