Hi

Currently at work and then going straight over to join DH and DD although I dont think I'll stay over as I cant leave poor doogie on her own from when DS goes out tonight, darent confirm my decision to hubby yet as it means he's got the girls to 'help'pack up in the morning - lol.
Nice to see old faces coming back neveah and macpep. you'll probably have a more successful return than I usually do
Right I better go and do something. See you all over the weekend although I'm working a few hours on Sunday again

crawls back into thread:-
not much sleep last night - DD1 seems to have a stomach bug, DD2 and mate didn't get in until 5.30am:eek::eek::eek:. I then sat with DD1 for a bit till she fell to sleep, got DS up for work and then hit the sack.
So the flylady who is normally out for a walk at 6am is still in her PJ's at 2pm!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH has rung and is taking a half day ( he didn't sleep well cos DD2 was out late).
Bit narked cos this is the one decent weather day this week - but 2 loads are now on the line...
Apparently it's my fault that we don't have any decent food in for DD2 - she fancies a french bread pizza...... well I have told her that the shop is that way.....:D;):jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

Hello!
DH is snoring on the sofa :rotfl:
DS & Little Miss Sunshine are in the garden. They have been playing with cornflour gloop for about an hour! I think I may need to go & clean up :eek: Last time I checked, it was all over the patio, down her face, on her shoes, on Ds's new trainers & jeans and all over the dog!! I wouldn't mind, but we have paid £25 for the dog to be shampooed & trimmed this morning, so he was lovely & clean!
He only needed 3/4 of his hair cut, as the rest was shaved when he had his op a few weeks ago. I still got charged the same!!
I also have to clean up the hundreds & thousands that are all over the LR floor from biscuit icing this morning
Ho hum!
Ok. I am heading out to the garden - wish me luck!!! (it's a good job it brushes off when it's dry)0 -

:wave: Hi everyone
Thought I would pop in & say hello to those who remember me
Sorry I haven't been around, I took a turn for the worse about 5 weeks ago & have been very poorly. Thanks to all who sent messages of love & support on facebook it really does help.
I have been having some aggressive treatment which has just about got me back to the level I was at previously .. life is a challenge as they say! But I'm stubborn & refuse to give up .. I could hear Diva saying it wasn't quite my time to go see her yet :A
I will try to read back a few pages & see what has been happening .. lots of names I don't recognise so welcome to all newbies.
Love & hugs to all xx“Cancer has my body but not my spirit, and I’ll continue to make jokes, not so much about cancer, but in spite of it” Irwin Barker0 -

Hi ladies, i haven't been keeping up for the last couple of days as DH was off work and so we were busy doing other stuff. Yesterday we hoovered and cleaned the living room floor, moved the broadband boxes out of the nursery and put up the wall stickers in the nursery.
Today DH has been back at work so i've had a bit of a catch up, I haven't followed the lists exactly but have done th following:
1 load of washing folded and put away.
Dishwasher put on.
Other pots washed, dried and put away.
Sink and draining board cleaned, sink filled with bleach/water and left to soak. Kitchen surfaces cleaned.
Inside the bottom of the fridge cleaned....it seems to get much dirtier in the bottom than anywhere else!
Living room, hall and bedrooms dusted.
Kitchen, hall and bedrooms hoovered.
I've also re-packed my hospital bags as I have gradually added things and ended up with things I might need at the top and things I definately will need at the bottom. Baby's bag still needs re-doing as I've got a couple of smaller babygrows and vests to put it but they're not quite dry yet so I'll do that one tomorrow.
So now I just need to do the bathroom. That'll be a job for tomorrow whilst DH is at work.0
