Morning all.
Juliejim, not near Ipswich, hope he is ok.
I have been flying this week but not posting much. This morning I've finished the bathroom jobs from yesterday, vacuumed the living room, put the recycling out and walked the dogs. Just about to see what to pick from today's list before work and must do HHI during my lunch break. Have a good day everyone.
Ok, well just looked at the list and everything pretty much done on there so will sweep and mop the floors and shine the kitchen sink as I didn't complete those properly earlier in the week. And then after work I shall just enjoy the long weekend. Am hoping its dry and I can get out in the garden, its a jungle out there now.
Gosh I am flying this morning. Think I'll dust & polish in hallway, stairs and landing and then start the paid work. Will strip DS bed when he leaves for college.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Me neither - hope your DH is ok juliejim.
Happy Star Wars Day everyone!
Enormous row with DS yesterday - not pleasant at all - much upset all round. Things seem calmer this morning - hope this continues...:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
I haven't done any flying since my post on Monday. DH is quite ill with shingles so I have had to do his show for him in the evenings and I have just wanted to sit with him when I haven't been working. I have the next 4 days off with him now apart from the evenings so I will try and do a bit here and there. It is also a year today since his dad passed away
I don't know if he realises or not.

Morning all
Bit tired after staying up watching election tv/twitter feeds. I did multitask and started to look at car insurance quotes.
DS3 still unwell, coughing like a dog and full of sore throat/cold.
JJ massive hugs, I hope your DH is ok (I'm not near Ipswich either, how far away is that from you?)
CY hugs for you, young men can be a touch volatile, hope DD got on ok yesterday and is not too tired
DS1 will be back from school soon so I'll go into town whilst he stays with DS3 and get some flying done this afternoon, all quite ship shape so shouldn't take too long.
Vali - Happy Star Wars Day

Happy Star Wars Day Flyfriends.
DH and I have been Flying for not quite a week, but crikey what a difference. We are well on top of todays list already and are both feeling really virtuous.
For all the doubters who lurk here IT DOES WORK:j Just jump in and try. I usually do the level 1 bits and DH (my fulltime carer) does the level 2 & 3
We were discussing flying last night and can't believe how much difference it has made and how much more time we have for other things (those we enjoy)
Thank You Dearest Flyfriends xxxxx
PS not read the thread through yet but will later0 -
JJ I'm about an hour from Ipswich. I hope your DH is OK.
Bossymoo well done for getting through yesterday. Enjoy your flowers.
MummyRoys -thinking of you. Hugs.

My sister's waters went last night. She rushed to hospital (against my advice) and has now been there for 16 hours and has nothing to eat since yesterday lunchtime. They are threatening to induce her. No contrations yet so everything is up in the air. I hardly slept as I was expecting the phone to summon me to the hospital. She is demented with hunger.
I reversed my DD's car into the neighbours car last night. I am not very popular:(.
WM on, DW unloaded and reloaded. I've spent most of the morning sorting out the insurance claim.0
