    you sound really busy 1step, i think thats the right thing to do. well done on taking on the 3 peaks challenge

    i dont beat myself up if i dont get it done but i leave the missed things on the list till the end off the week incase i get a chance to pull them in but a new week is a new start and it will come round again. because ive not long started flying i know that if i let too much slide i will quickly be back to square one so that why im trying to make this my priority till im on top of things

    im mad with myself cos i forgot to buy the sun yesterday for the morry voucher but remember to check the newspaper summary each day.

    fish tank is looking better

    Thank you for all the welcomes! Am looking forward to joining!

    I'll need to add in a little night time routine I think of laying out clothes for the morning, and organising my packed lunch.

    Can anyone tell me how to add to favourites?

    Thanks flyladies!

  • Just having a sit down, today has bee busy, Costco, metro centre, took Ben to visit his great gran, home, bath for him, got him settled and then dinner for me, load of washing in, 3 x hhi and now sat down with my feet up about to sort out my shopping from earlier

    Will do proper list update to,or row night as need to pack for heading to my mums next week and make the spare bed for her to sleep in so busy weekend as got a friend popping round tomorrow for a catch up and another popping round Sunday evening.
  • Just popping in to say a quick hello. Had a really busy few weeks with this week being busier as I ended up working full time whereas I usually work school hours. But I can have 3 days off next week now so the plan is to fly,fly, fly this weekend then enjoy spending some time with the girls during the week.

    I think tomorrow the plan will be a big kitchen clean. I cleaned and tidied the 2 wall cupboards last week but the larger corner units need doing this weekend. So kitchen and washing this weekend. I like to get the girls PE kits washed and repacked ASAP so it's not a mad panic first day back.

    Night night everyone. Will try & check back tomorrow and do a list and hopefully have a few things to cross off.
