    I have done a very basic flylady on the kitchen as it really doesn't need it, I just feel I should do the lists as my house is clean and I want it to stay that way. 2nd load of washing is on, 1st is on the airer in the bathroom, hoping DH may fit the washing line tonight as I am feeling very girly and don't want to do it. I am going to have a break now, sort my clothes into stuff that I need easy access to and the rest and then put away and maybe do my shoes after that. I need to fit lunch in somewhere and I may walk to the high street as I want to find out how long it takes.

    I have an apple glut again - wasnt keen on chocolate apple cake. Need to find something to do with them.

    Morning all - glad it's kitchen and dining as I already washed out the bottom of the fridge. Sadly it was because it REALLY needed it *blushes*
    wasted time last night squabbling with TTTB on the Arms - kids were watching 28 weeks later and 28 days later was enough for me. Anyway the squabbling brought back a very happy set of memories and led to a very pleasant dream *sigh*
    Also have 4 ebays to post *grins* including my precious and valuable antique *GRINS*
    Jojo - was envious at the thought of the fishing trip - now even more so! No-body moans at you for sitting still and being quiet when you're fishing;)

    Aww Cat Dont you let that BD set up residence. Toffee sends a howling double pawed, ears flying, pounce at it :) "Arrooooooowwwwwwwwrooooo" known to make bigger scary dogs go running :) Mind you if that weight pounced on me... I'd leg it too ;)

    So far I've put the DW on and collected the random dishes from round the house. Really must get on as I have physio this afternoon (fingers crossed this works, I wanna get running again) and I wanted to get my flying done before I go. :eek:
    okay okay, I'm procrastinating (again) I'm getting up mebbe I'll make it a HHC :)

    Finally booked my flights home to visit my brother, SIL and their new little man in early September. :D

    Just need to book flights for after my sister's baby is born in November, and for my friend's birthday in December (her OH has offered to pay towards it, and it's a surprise! :D ).

    Did prompt my neice's to say to me, last week, that I must be very rich to afford all these flights! lol I'm not, I just don't go out much, and I don't have a mortgage and 3 kids to pay for! It's kinda nice that someone thinks I'm rich though.

    ETA: What is BD? I checked the first page and the only thing I can see, with those initials is Binbag Dance, but I don't think that is what is referred to above, is it?
