Morning all. I vote to keep the lists as they are. Thanks for all your good wishes this week, all going well here. I'm not sure what tasks I'll be doing this weekend as I had planned to get out in the garden but it's raining.
Hope to catch you all later in the weekend, if not see you all on the new thread on Monday. Off now to get my wayward hair cut.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Morning All
I know I don't post very often any more but I vote for keeping the thread the same
In my topsy-turvy world it's comforting to have this place of *normal/home* to return to when I want a dose of reality. That probably sounds very selfish of me because I don't participate but I do lurk when I can.
Flylady has been a part of my life for a long time.
I know I communicate with my "flylady friends" on FB/Twitter but it's not the same as this community
Dusty & Jue are doing a fab job xx
As for me I'm declining again, those of you who remember the major surgery/trauma of 10 months ago .. well it didn't work & has to be repeated shortly so The Royal Marsden will become my home again for a while:eek:
And purely for Valli yes HE is still very much part of my life

Love, hugs,prayers and spoons to L-L. Everyone is of equal importance in this thread.......
BUT - L-L is one of the special people......:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
Popping my head back over the parapet yet again.. You know I am sure there is a Natty head shape on this parapet the amount of times I keep popping up over it..lol
I just wanted to say please, please, please keep the list as it is, but I also think the suggestion by Valli is a good idea - the wacky extras added into the weekly lists. I know I'm not as prolific on here as I used to be - mental health taking a battering at the moment. Plus I am running around helping a very dear friend in need after her leg surgery, picking up kids, appointments for them and her..etc. My own home has taken a battering at the moment which hasn't helped, and to tell you the truth I so exhausted at night that all I can do is check FB and open a couple of tabs on the lappy, but I really couldn't tell you what I am reading..lol. Thankfully it will come to an end in a couple of weeks, plus the children are on summer holidays then..phew. Then when they go back T will be back on her feet and able to drive, and hopefully be without her crutches.
Also everytime I pop back to the thread I always disappear, not sure why though. I love reading the thread and to tell you the truth it has been a lifeline for so long, and has helped me through some bad times I would hate it to change. I think maybe I am missing being able to chat on the posts as I don't want to do the flylady jobs but just want to waffle away..
Oh and piggers if you think the rabbit eating it's own poo is bad you should be around my dogs - they insist on eating the cat poo in the litter tray if I haven't got to it quick enough to scoop out.. Now that is ick!! :rotfl:
L-L hugs sweetie, I didn't know about the treatment not working - why didn't you tell me you bad girl. I promise to be more there for you in the future.
Oh well off to get showered, then I am going to be tackling the weeks list, with the help of DH. And hopefully we can get this house into some sort of order.Mortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️
