    Make a start on DS1's bedroom - I can just about open the door!! (It's not his fault - it's mine, I have been flinging stuff in there and the poor dab has been sharing his younger brother's bedroom for months! They do get on really well though but think it will be a lovely surprise for him if I can get his bedroom sorted over the week :) ) I am very tempted to post before and after photos on here :) I actually might do that - I think it will shift my backside through the utter shame of it,lol!

    Right - I'm off to make a move on some of Monday's list :)

    Sorry if I am being incredible thick but just noticed we have a



    toottifrootti and a
    tootifruities in this thread. Are they the same person as I didn't notice slight difference in names and have been reading posts as if they are?!

    They are one and the same person, most of the time! Asbo masquerades as tootifruities when the real toots is not around.

    tootifruities only posts on this thread.

    Now if you understand that then can you explain it to me :rotfl:

    Oh and btw we are in :D in desperate need of CHAOS clearance.

    I'm in this week - thank you pigpen and Toots :A

    The house has suffered this week due to Ofsted and Bon Jovi :rotfl: so I need to do some serious flying. I'm in London again next weekend so will do the best I can during the week.

    Welcome to the newbies and welcome back to returners

    Love and hugs to all, especially Toots, L-L and LW xx

    tootifruities (bet this has been answered) is a very special flylady with a split personality who keeps tabs on us all and her place is filled by a couple (or more) flyladies...mostly they are one and the same person

    I'm in

    I HAVE

    finished my ironing then I have gone outside to sit on my garden bench in the sunshine with a glass of something chilled *hic* and my book (The Bad Mothers handbook) which I have really enjoyed - got it Friday - s'now finished...

    this is the FIRST TIME EVER I have used my bench...:D:cool:

    Kazw - hope you're ok did you have a bump?

    I am feeling really really chilled :rotfl:

    I'll be in, upstairs week for me with a few frogs to eat, some gardening to do and best of all last of the exams for the year for DS2.

    Off to do some ironing now and load the WM for the night.

    Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion.

    Love that sentiment Valli :)

    Good evening. I have been awol this weekend - it has been a weird one. Very good bits and very bad bits.

    Went fruit picking yesterday, and got lots of yummy strawberries, raspberries & cherries. then picked up MIL & had an impromptu BBQ with strawberry flan for pud :D

    DD1 got herself a job! :j She is working for the summer at the local theme park. She has a job on the rides (they only put the most enthusiastic people on the rides!) So she is made up (and so am I!)

    then my mum phoned, to say that my uncle had taken a turn for the worse :( He had come home on Thursday, and had Macmillan nurses in with him overnight. My aunty (mum's sister) came down from Lowestoft on Friday to see him, and stayed at mum's overnight. Mum then phoned half an hour later to say that he had passed away :( it was much quicker than we had anticipated, but at least he isn't suffering now. Now we must concentrate on his wife, and children, and help them through it.

    It is Dh's birthday tomorrow - and he is on his way to Scotland for work :( he hates his job at the moment. He will be back on Tuesday. So we sort of had a birthday weekend. He had presents today, and his mum & sister came to see him.

    I need to clear the kitchen -again- for the shed/summerhouse delivery tomorrow (hopefully!!) I bet they will be wishing they had got the order right first time when they are doing it in 30 degrees tomorrow! :rotfl:

    Right. I am off to iron DS's shirts for the week i think. i will update listies in a mo :D
