    I'm sure no-one noticed me slide off into obscurity at the end of last week - it became a question of having :( to spend more time at work for my sanity - so that the work mountains stopped becoming the floor mountains and spare desk mountains, and any time left over needed to be spent on low level flying, and not writing about it - but have to say I missed catching up on what my new flylady friends were up to - hope I haven't missed anything tooooooooo significant.

    Anyway, was up this morning planning on emptying the DW - unfortunately DH didn't actually shut the door on it last night so that's running now. But I have emptied the WM. I have allocated a minimum HHC to today's tasks for this evening - so hopefully will pop in here for some company. And all my bags for work were packed last night, sandwiches made and everything to wear is ironed and ready to go. :)

    I've decided. Work can have no more than one hour extra on any day, and after that .............. I need to prioritise MY life!

    Toots sounds like your prioritising too - all the best for the move. Actually, it's quite nice to have the number 2 post - it reminds me of some of the things I DO need reminding of!

    Morning All

    I'm in - thanks to all at FCC

    I've just put my jumpers on the airer as I'd left them in the WM last night thinking I'd put them on the line this morning but although it's nice now they've given out rain for later. I've also done some ironing as I did none yesterday so no uniform had been ironed. I think I'll go and strip my bed now while I get dressed although that means I've got to make it myself tonight as DH is away - I normally leave it for him.

    Toots - hope the move goes smoothly and easily for you - make sure you rest.

    Sexy - have a wonderful time and best wishes for Friday - I'll be thinking of you.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    morning all!

    I'm in - need to sort out the pit before the holidays begin!

    Am smiling this morning - a mate's daughter had a baby at 2.30 this morning - last week she was in and out of hospital and mate was really worried.

    Thankfully everything was straightforward and mate is now a granny!

    Thanks for the list Pigpen.
    Toots - good luck with the move. I think post 2 looks great with the welcome.
    Sexymouse - have a great time. Hope you and Moon are well. The location looks magical :)

    I am hoping to make level 1 this week.
