    Gutter FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!! going up :D

    Children told off and dumped at school.. I swear they are going to be murdered before this week is out if they aren't careful!
    Squeak drugged, fed and changed.. I may run her a bath now she is feeling a little better.. she isn't snotting as much if that counts for anything?
    I have a couple of ebay parcels to fling

    the kitchen is a swamp so I must drag OH in there today.. I might have him go rounding up wash baskets too.. I have 1.5 full in the kitchen and not seen any more for days... which means it is nasty somewhere in the house but it isn't the bathroom!
    I want to get Henry out for a walk as well.

    Twas binday yesterday so I am hoping to get my way through filling at least 1 this week :D .. I feel the urge to go flinging in DD1's stuff.

    Oh.. I need to contact the plasterer and the solicitor too.. I'll do those next.. and order moomins prescription

    Good morning flyladies :)
    I started flyladying a year ago but dropped out:o...however the biggest fluffiest mule has flown over the Humber and kicked me hard and here I am again.....:o:o:o. Do you give second chances?

    I've been made redundant so no time restraints in that respect; however I'm enormously overweight which slows me down a lot; starting 27th June there's goin to be work done on the house - new kitchen, bathroom, living room fire, boiler and radiators + electrical upgrade. Which means that I've had to completely clear the house...boy have I shifted some stuff...shifted but not sorted, I intend to do that one box at a time as it returns to the house and I'm goin to be ruthless because i don't want to end up living in a house that I won't invite people back to because of the clutter.

    So now seems a great time to get into the flylady groove - I'm basically working on a blank canvas and I want to get into good flylady habits now while there's no stuff!!!

    Healthy eating starts today too. Encouragement, support, and an occasional kick by that fluffy mule would be gratefully appreciated.

    Roundtuit xx

    Pigpen - :j:jfor the gutter! :j:j My roof still hasn't been looked at :( Although I haven't chased it, so that is probably why.

    Roundtuit - welcome back (I wasn't here last time you were here) Good luck with everything! Small steps - and that goes for the weight loss aswell. I have fallen off the diet wagon this last week or so, so maybe you should be throwing things at me!

    I have written out the cheque for the holiday. need to find a stamp now & post it (something that can take a ridiculous amount of time in this house :o) Now to get counting on those vouchers....

    Five Birds and Good Intentions

    Five birds are sitting on a telephone wire. Two decide to fly south. How many are left?
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair
