    Morning :wave:

    I got up just after 7 this morning and a strange thing was occuring in Miss Tag's bedroom/hovel........... :eek:

    She was already in the middle of cleaning it! :eek:

    Bearing in mind that the entire contents of her drawers, wardrobe, CD's, toys, pens, paper (I could go on but I won't) were strewn everywhere except where they should of been.
    So, there's me sitting downstairs having a coffee thinking that the cleaning example I set yesterday must have rubbed off:A.......... when she appears and announces - 'It's all done. So what time are we going to the fair tonight then?' * rolls eyes* :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    But to her credit she has achieved an excellent flylady standard :T:)

    Have to say it was lovely to get up this morning and not have to negotiate a route around stuff piled on the landing and stairs. :D

    Right off to find my list. Will be plugging away slowly today, mainly concentrating on Mounts Washmore and Iron Lots!

    TTFN xxx

    Oh and Happy Wedding Day seafarers

    Morning ladies.

    Up handy. Have tidied the kitchen AGAIN. Done the cat litter and changed our bed.
    DH just making some toast and tea then we are off out to BandQ, Costco and a bike shop.

    Back later for a vacuum of the whole house followed by a big old mop.....

    Congrats Seafarers - have a lovely day.

    Jinks well done on your job. No mean feat these days.....

    Everyone else, have a lovely Saturday :D:D:D
    Yesterday is history
    Tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift
    That's why we call it 'The Present'

    Morning all, we've woken to loads and loads of snow..:eek: and it's still snowing. A tree near the kitchen window is under so much snow that it's nearly in the kitchen.
    Kids want their snowsuits so i suppose thats there day sorted. My plan is flying and ebay, need to get the fire lit now tho. :D

    Triker well done..:T
    Seafarers wish you all the very best for today.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
