    Evening people

    Playing catch up on everything today but not going to get stressed about it (I havent had a headache today so I am hoping not to bring one on!)

    Todays meeting went fine. We were called to the London office and were expecting bad news but it wasnt, it was just that it fitted in with the delivering Exec's plans better so that was a relief. I did however leave my phone at home this morning so couldnt do any work on the train as I use mobile for portable internet access on the tablet. Managed to get an early train home and met up with DD just in time for her dentist appointment. Have managed to do a huge portion of sweet n sour chicken for tea and some portions for the freezer too. Kids have helped clear up and bring the kitchen back to the required standard but haventtt done anything off todays list so hence the cactching up to do.

    I would like to ask for assistance if noone minds?

    As you know DS3 has Type 1 diabetes, there is a charity JDRF .. this won't cost you money!.. which funds research and support for the children and families.

    A couple of my facebook friends are trying to win 1000 t-shirts to sell to raise money... There are several other bids in but the photographs need to be 'liked' on a facebook group.. you don't have to join anything or and you won't be cluttered with emails etc.. :D

    It is THIS LINKYPOPS ..


    if you wouldn't mind liking the pegasus t-shirt picture JDRF and lots of diabetic children would be very grateful... it breaks you heart some of these are little tiny babies :(
    Done

    :hello: to you and DD :D Miss A is waving back. We are fine thanks. I haven't booked anything for June (wonder if it's too late) but I would like to go to Chirk as that is a great site and I hail from those parts.
    Ooh I dont know that one, I'll have a look

    I also quoted kazookie but that didnt save dont know why. DD and DH have just come back from Kelling Heath for a few days. I really like it there. Have previously been to the CC site at Cromer but although it gets booked up really quickly, I wasny overly impressed. Anyway we'll find something.

    Right batterys nearly flat on here so I will submit then commit to my bed.

    Catch up tomorrow.

    Night all x

    What she said :D

    Good evening. I haven't achieved very much today :( I have cooked dinner, and eaten it :) DH & I took the dog for a walk (we were naughty & let him off the lead, even though the vet said lead walks :o but he wasn't charging about so it is ok :p) I also sorted some photos on the lappy this morning. I need to print some off for kiddies folders. I think I will decide which ones, and then sign up to a site for some freebies :money: :T I just need to decide which ones. That should work out cheaper than printing them all here.

    I think I will go to bed now, as it's bin day tomorrow so need to get up early and get it all done before 7.45 (I don't like putting them out tonight because of the foxes :mad:

    Night night all x

    Well Said Kazm! I agree. It's lovely to see A&Wsmum and lady L post. I'm waving to Toots as well, all special ladies.

    I've done all my ironing for the nearly new sale. The better bits have been put on E.bay and 3 of them (5 in total) have bids.

    DS1 reduced me to tears today. I have taken his PS3 to a safe place out of the house. I'm really getting to the end of my patience with his disruptive behaviour and unspeakable language. He's spoilt a very good day otherwise.

    I have an interview on Thursday for a job I really want. Dd1 has been given a provisional security job at the Olympics. DS1 was offer 2 weeks work experience in London, expenses paid. us ladies were delighted but he wasn't at all pleased.

    No flying done other than the ironing. Must try harder!

    Hello, no I don't rank as highly as the flylady founder or the lovely ladies who have done or now do the lists :o
    I used to "fly" until illness struck, now I'm just an honorary member of the thread :D
    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

    Your posts have a very special place in this thread - you are an inspiration!:T:T:T

    Dusty baby-steps are good - I'm still keeping Ed brought to the notice of any deity withing earshot.:o

    Lady-L nothing useful to add, my foot!! You inspire me to keep going when my own wretched illness makes me want to give up; if that's not useful, I don't know what is!:D

    Morning all!

    Horrible, grotty weather out there - DH is delaying the dog walking in the hope it improves! Got quite a bit done yesterday, Governor's meeting tonight so will see what I can manage today. Hope the rain clears up but not looking likely - not been able to hang washingoutside for ages - got another load in the dryer now!

    Hope everyone has a good day today!

    Morning All

    WM & TD on but that's about it. I didn't sleep very well last night I work up at 2 having only gone to bed after 11 and didn't get back to sleep for ages. I've got right bags under my eyes this morning - DD asked me why I'd been crying!
    DS has got football tonight, DD has got swimming and I've still got quite a bit to sort out ready for tomorrow night. I'm not sure I'll be fitting any flying in although I am going to empty the table and sort the DR floor out as I'm hoping someone's going to come and collect the table tonight or if not it will be later in the week. I've had a smaller one which my dad dropped off yesterday so is now sitting in the conservatory.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs
