    Hi all,

    I signed up to the fly lady email which comes whizzing across the pond every morning.

    Anyhow the other day I noticed there is an iPhone app which has the calendar etc... on it.

    Has anyone managed to download the iPhone app as I can't get it - the app store doesn't seem to have it on my phone - very confused!

    Morning all,

    Happy Birthday Quillion & lilme's DS :beer:

    My stupid car wouldn't start this morning. :mad: School is only 1.5 miles away but there's no foot paths most of the way and it's a very busy main road. I wouldn't mind walking it but i wouldn't really want Ds2 walking it. I couldn't find any change for the bus either nor did i know what time they come so i rang my friend who very kindly gave us a lift. I'm going to walk to pick him up and get the bus back, i'm just hoping it doesn't rain. My phone's not sending text messages either and i don't know why so i can't even text OH to come and have a look at it in his lunch break.

    So my plans to come straight home, have breakfast, quickly do my dailies and finish Ds2's room have been delayed slightly. I'm going to have a coffee and make a start. I should really be working today too but i have to get Ds2's room finished first.

    I need to find my list.

    Morning all. The girls have gone back to school today and OH is looking after my little one so I can go and strip the girls' bedroom and sort out all their stuff ! Will take a good few hours.
    Waiting on a call from the mechanic to come fix my car, he is just waiting for the part to be delivered. When it is fixed I need to go shopping as OH has the car for next few days so it's now or the weekend which is limited time. Then will finish with todays flying :D

    Happy Birthday Quillion & lilme's DS :beer:
    Hope everyone has a good day

    I've just finished yesterday's list as had the bathroom to do. I'm having my half hour rest then off to get DD from Nursery. I will tackle the kitchen after lunch. (I sit here quite smug as the kitchen is not too bad, although entrance boot room part of kitchen is in a right mess, mud and wellies galore)

    I managed to get hold of OH, i missed called his phone and he rung me back on his break. He's coming over at lunch time to have a look at my car. So, i have just under an hour to get stuck into Ds2's room without stopping.

    Instead of stopping for a coffee, I dropped of my unwanted medicines at the pharmacy and then came home the long way, so have had some fresh air and exercise :D Had a quick look round the garden, and the bulbs are coming up and the viburnum is in flower. So I need to insist that the apple tree is pruned in the next couple of weeks, otherwise it will be too late again... Work isn't going particularly speedily, as the two colleagues I need to speak to about work in progress seem to have disappeared off the face of the earth...
