    Just a quick post

    Can we please have collective positive flylady vibes for Lady-Liberty for her surgery tomorrow - if you pray then please remember her in your prayers - she needs ALL the help she can get to get through this - its a major op.

    thanks
    toots xx


    Toots hun - a lovely message but AFAIK the surgery is today. L-L went in last night for surgery scheduled for today.

    As Toots rightly said, L-L needs the power of the collective flylady positive thoughts and healing vibes xx

    Ooh, I didn't know this! Thanks Piggers; not needed for myself, but may be useful for friends to know about.

    Toots thanks for the reminder - I will invoke every protective/healing spirit I can think of for our dear Lady Liberty.:o

    Afternoon all,

    Positive healthy healing vibes for LadyL, i'll be thinking of you. xxx

    Today's been a bit of a faffy day so far. I've been to pay money into my bank, then came home to transfer the money online to the letting agent, the went to her house to drop off the forms. We came home, had lunch and i've packed and posted my sales.

    Still no sign of the boxes :mad: i'm going to have to just get on with the decluttering. I have a big case of CBA though and i need to shift myself.

    HHC at 2.30 anyone? It might give me some much needed motivation.

    Piggers is spot on - it's only illegal to 'just' change your name if you do it with intent to defraud. When I got divorced the first time I just reverted to my maiden name and being stubborn REFUSED to show anyone my Decree as it was not necessary - and you can change to any name you choose...
