Mudbath : I got my tree from this place 2 years ago and love it. Its 7.5ft (8ft would mean I couldn't put a fairy or star on top :rotfl: ) and has branches which you slot onto the trunk so I leave some off and push it up against the wall :D Highly recommend them :

Hi all

Seem to be working from my own list this week - oh well JJ list is inspirational so I am taking my lead from there.

Tonight:

Dusted LR & Hallway
Hoovered LR & Hallway
Hoovered Bathroom & Kitchen
Washed kitchen & Bathroom floors


Found one of the cats had _pale_ underneath the table so I cleaned the floor using a lancashire cloth and not mop it as I usually would.

Not had a reply yet to my email but I only sent it yesterday and they're 2 hours ahead, but hopefully I'll hear from him soon. If I don't hear from him then I will take that as my answer and return to square 1. Oh well.

love & light x

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Hey everyone.

I promise I will be on here again properly by the weekend but my time is just SO limited now I'm back at work and trying to be all flylady. So just updating with progress, and saying thankyou again. I can already see a massive improvement in the house and it's really motivating me to keep going with it. Just means I have less time on here of an evening.

Evening all

The carpet looks much better after the visit from the carpet cleaner (on this occasion cheaper than hiring equipment and buying cleaning fluid) and hopefully we'll have the new suite tomorrow. I'll be glad to flop down on something comfortable again. Not feeling great tonight, so I might have a short nap before doing some work.

DH cooked tea (properly, from scratch, with a dessert :eek: :T). For his first real attempt ever it wasn't too bad. However, the kitchen has suffered. He's cleaned a lot of it up, but it will need some attention at the weekend.

I'm shattered when I get in from work - early days so still a shock to the system and not liking the job uses up a lot of energy!!! However I have managed to WM x1 tonight, and rearranged laundry on radiators and airer. Soon be weekend woop woop, hoping to flutter a little more energetically then!
