    Popped onto thread just in time to send warm thoughts to Lady-Liberty.:j:cool::A:D - those will have to do, as we don't seem to have a warm thoughts smiley...;)

    Kitchen Done!!
    :D:D:D Just need to do the rest of the ground floor... but as it's sunny I may be tempted to do something in the garden, which means I can smell the daphne and admire the primroses...

    Manic week, Year 9 reports (I teach three groups, which is half the year), lessons to prepare for next week when I'm in France, and three homework booklets - worked until 5.30 Tuesday and Thursday, all day Wednesday (meant to be my day off), and I still have a little bit to do, mainly preparation for our GTP, and some stuff to take with us to France.

    DS1 hasn't been feeling great, but was looking a lot better today, thank goodness, as I would have been very reluctant to go next week.

    :hello:Hi to all my flylady friends, love, hugs, spoons as wanted or needed...

    afternoon all:hello:
    daily flying done all week, so house not too bad.

    I am cold and tired

    but I have done a bit in the craft room and cleared a small space, so I can craft later and hopefully create a bit more space. I think most of the rest just needs putting away, but that might be the hard part as I don't think I have enough 'place' to put everything away.:(

    Do I need to eat it :o
    Can I afford the calories:eek:
    have I checked for a lower calorie version:T

    Hi All

    What a day its turning out to be! So far I haven't done anything other than dailies...
    Dropped ds off at preschool, then headed off to work and have decided to hand in my notice after months of feeling unhappy there. Come home and my sister had decided she couldn't look after ds until 3:30 as planned, this has made me so :mad: I have her DD at least 6 hours a week let 3 hours for her to have ds was too much :mad:

    I'm so cross and ds is very upset :(

    Grrrr sorry for the vent!
    :j Mortgage Free!! :eek: )
    Generally trying to cut back where possible :j

    very basic fluttering only this week - not enough energy to fly! Kept the worst at bay though, so hopefully I'll get past level one stuff next week.
