    :heartpulsOnce a Flylady, always a Flylady:heartpuls
  • I have a show next Monday! :eek: :eek: :eek:

    I thought it was the one after!!!!!


    And I have to do a funk number!!!!!!! Arrrrrggggghhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!


    Since we got back, I have decluttered a large portion of salty, vinegary chips (DD had a monster burger meal whilst I was playing. They laughed at her as it consisted of about 100 4 inch long chips, a half pound of burger and salad. Apparently she was horrified at the size of it, but at least she isn't complaining of being half starved like usual)

    I have impressed upon her the importance of not trying to forge letters from me to get her out of trouble when she forgets a book. The teacher who phoned me at 4 says she calls their bluff the first time she sees they're trying it on and they never do it again. Mentioned to her that KH3 left yesterday, so she was probably a bit preoccupied this morning and the teacher has promised to not give her too hard a time over it - but that she will be making it clear that fibbing is not the solution.


    I am currently surrounded by unconscious cats who all seem to be in the middle of their Spring moult [atishooo!]. So I suppose I had better get the vacuum cleaner out tomorrow.

    My life is so hard...... :cool:
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Morning All

    WM and TD on but then I'm hoping to be able to put this wash on the line. Need to do a HHI and do a HHC in the kitchen.

    Still full of cold but hey. DH is away again tonight so hopefully I'll get more done as he won't be here.

    Congratulations lauradora

    Have a good day all

    Hugs
