I also am de-lurking (again!)
Forgive me flyladies, for I have sinned and my house is back to being it's normal state:eek:.
I am feeling thoroughly fed up and I am lacking the motivation to get off my ar*e and get stuff done. I have never felt this sh*tty before. I think certain stresses at work are taking their toll (I'm a school cook for gods sake, it really shouldn't be stressful!!)
tomorrow morning I have an hr to myself without the squiddlies, so I'm going to make a start. first stop, kitchen. second living room. an hr should have them looking at least semi respectable.
Then tomorrow evening when squiddlies in bed I aim to attack our bedroom. I think there maybe a small family of hobbits living under the mountain of clean washing in there:rotfl:.
once that lot is under control I can start flying properly again and a tidy house will probably make me feel tons better.

apologies for having a whinge xx hugs to all xx happy flying xx

Morning All

Just going to get up and get myself sorted. Kids need to be ready for 7.45 so I'm going to get them up at 6.45 which gives them an hour. DS should be up by then but DD will probably need waking up. Right I'll get myself sorted and see if I have time for flying before work. Recycling day today so must remember to put the bins out.

Have a good day all

Hugs
