any news on Ed Dusty he often pops into my thoughts

There are hopefully tiny babysteps of more alertness. It is still such a long road for him to travel back to his family but they are holding as strong as they can and are amazing.

I had an operation on my foot and have not been very mobile for three months. My husband has been doing his best with the housework but now I'm back on my feet I don't know where to start. Walking is still painful so I can't do much at a time but I'm giving it a go.

Yesterday, I cleared all the kitchen surfaces and washed them over - it looks so much better out there.

Today, I cleaned all the mirrors and internal glass doors - also washed the curtain on the big lounge window and cleaned it inside and out. It all looks so different.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's list :T

Thanks for the inspiration

You are doing great but please do not over do it!

First dinner done, DS1 taken to work, DS3 taken to athletics, DS1 dinner taken to him, floor mopped. Now to go and collect DS3 and do dinner number 2

MIA due to dodgy Internet connection, now sorted (bopped then switched off and on then bopped again).

Done levels 1 and 2 today. Beds remade. Laundry day tomorrow. I'm finished at work now so need to get packed for our hols!

thats brilliant news, in my moments of quiet thought i ask whoever looks after us to give extra care to my little Niece and Ed.

just back from martial arts with youngest DS so hopefully get him suppered and in PJs before DH and DD come back.

annoyed with myself as i forgot my glasses so reading and cross stitch were a bit difficult while there but hopefully going to get a bit of both done now as house looks reasonable. just got pack ups and our supper to do.
will be late in tomorrow as DS has hospital appt so ill probally be doing my flying in the afternoon

hope all are well

Hi everyone

Today we:

• shredded 20 things - no post today so did extra from 'the pile'
• cleaned fridge
• swept LR and kitchen floor
• S&S kitchen
• cleaned WM drawer (don't know where the filter is)
• dusted LR
• wm been on
• dw been on
• liked pigpen's picture on fb
• provided shoulder for DD to cry on - she's had the sort of day that makes 16 yo's cry and mothers want to injure people:(

Dog's been out and I'm showered, in PJ's and relaxing with a nice cuppa.

We have parent's evening tomorrow so will probably only get done what we can do before work.

Hope everyone is fit and well, if you're not hugs from me

Hello, no I don't rank as highly as the flylady founder or the lovely ladies who have done or now do the lists
I used to "fly" until illness struck, now I'm just an honorary member of the thread
I have received so much love & support from all my "flylady" friends on here over the last couple of years I could never have got through everything without them they are a truly spectacular bunch :A
Now I lurk when I am well enough but don't post very often because I don't have anything useful to add to the thread :rotfl:

Love & hugs to all xxx

Now stop being so silly - you are one very inspirational lady and as necessary as any of our list makers. Posting, however infrequently, makes our day,

with much love,
