artichoke I wish I had your self control. I still seriously struggle with setting aside work/flying time and sticking to it. Spend far too much time reading the fred rather than doing either :rotfl:

Still need to declutter a dog walk. And then do some serious filing. My study is a tip! and freezing cold. Doesn't make spending time in there overly attractive.

Morning all, hope you are all ok? Welcome to all you new folks and returners. Safe travels to Greenbee and anyone else on the road. Good gig vibes for Jojo and get well wishes for Juliejim and anyone else under the weather.

Yet another cause to thank the Flyladies, especially Toots:A. After I tackled my own very small Toots style list, DH was so impressed with the extra jobs I'd got round to doing that he ASKED FOR HIS VERY OWN LIST.:D So I made one yesterday with 2 columns one for me and one for him, quite often the jobs are linked, I can't do my bit without his bit and vice versa. I'm only going to post my part, but if mine are crossed off, stands to reason his are too. Then there are some none DIY extras that are just for me.

Good Morning Everyone! I'm back for another week!
Bit of a late start today as I had to follow DH to the garage which is repairing my car - tiny little knock...= new door, new trim, respray = 4 figure bill :eek: Totally my own fault, but grrrh!
Mainly paperwork day as I have to get my study sorted, but quick run through the dailies as well. Better get on...

I'll join you at 10.15 Tooch.

Just sorted through the dining room a bit - DH is SUCH a hoarder; I've put 32 magazines in the paper recyling as it'll be taken away before he gets home and he won't even notice. These were just stashed in the corner and I found them.
