    Many thanks for the warm welcomes. Although I've just settled down to watch Wimbledon (come on Tim!) this morning I:- S&S both the bathroom and kitchen, sorted out a wardrobe, dusted lounge & bedrooms and cleaned both the conservatory and kitchen floors (and shined that kitchen sink!).

    My favourite thing is HHC (I call it a 'mad half hour') and my fella laughs at it, but does join in, when prompted.

    Come on Tim?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Do you have a secret time machine?

    Hello

    BB said:
    Can we recruit 10 new flyladies over the weekend to start the new week on Monday?

    I would like to join thisgroup as I need to get my home order. I've been lurking on this thread and am impressed by the encouragement given to people. As I live on my own this group will keep me on track with my housework, which I've been putting off doing as there is such a lot to do.

    Okay - I'll admit that I've been lurking for ages (possibly a few years). I do read most days but don't always actually "fly" IYKWIM. AMazingly it's always easier to read about what I should be doing rather than actually doing it. Oh the shame!!!

    Anyway, now I've put it in writing. I have visitors in three weeks (with small children who always manage to pull out something covered in dust) so I have to motivate myself into actually doing something about it (the dust mainly).

    I look forward to having a clean(ish) house and being more relaxed about having visiting children shaming me!

    There, I've said it. Now I must do it!!

    Welcome, both!! :wave::wave: :T:T

    And then there were 7!! I feel quite emotional :o Looking forward to seeing your posts and getting to know you.

    Bossy here is a :A:staradmin:heart2::staradmin :A for today xxx Hope DS is cooler & calmer soon. Pigpen are you in the badlands??

    It has been ok. Better than ok. Those little kiddies have kept me well destracted, and we had good fun at the zoo.

    They were ever so well behaved at the hotel too, I'm very proud of them both. There was a prom party and some teenagers turned up in a helicopter of all things, the tots were amazed, and we went round the back to watch it take off DS was soooo excited!
