    Ooooh. More flying done. I've cleared Monday and Tuesdays lists:j:j:j

    Going to try and get Wednesday done in commercial breaks this evening.

    It really is starting to build up. OK its taken 6 months, but it is soooo worth it. It's now only about 20mins a day rather than an endless list that is so toad like you can't face any of it.

    Thanks piggers,asbo and toots. From me, and from DH.

    Bonsibabe~ why don't you tell the council you have damaged the sticker on the first bin flylady cleaning it and could they send you another one?

    LW~I think you are right to say when you have your doggy friend till, it is up to the sitting service to sort it out, or the daughter, you have forefilled your contact in having him for (x) nubmer of days, you have stuff to get ready.

    Hope the trip to the Docs wasnt too traumatic!

    Fan-firkin-tastic day.

    DD1 is going to die a slow and painful death.

    DS2 has had a tantrum again.. and KH has refused to have him for a couple of days as he is living with his shagpile so there isn't room.. he only stays at his when he has the children!

    Squeak hasn't got whooping cough.. she has pneumonia in both lungs and inflammation causin wheezing but her SATs are fine and she is eating ok so doesn't require the hospital..

    why does it never just rain?!

    Aww what a rubbish day Piggers, dunno what to say really other than I hope Squeak gets better soon, poor thing. x
    Has DD1 turned up then?

    I'm still awaiting the cupboard people...and then we can eat because I'm starving.
    I'm also debating whether to open and write in the brand new filofax I've been given or a lovely new notebook thingy to write all my money stuff in. I'm bound to mislay it, I usually do but I need my 'things written down' stuff in one place, not scattered in piles.
