    Morning everyone

    Thanks for keeping us all going lil_me.
    I must admit I'm struggling a bit. Me and the littlies were ill last week and dh was at the hospital for tests one day. I'm still feeling rough and I know I have to go to w**k shortly and then rush home just after 7pm to get to dd's parents evening.

    So, I'm just pottering around atm - I've done my dailies, the SC is on with a beef casserole which hopefully I'll get to eat at some point tonight, I've cleaned the kitchen sink and the sink in the cloakroom and done the floors so if I keep going I may get most of it done.

    Kitchen & Downstairs Toilet

    9. [STRIKE]Clean floor[/STRIKE]

    Bebee ((big hugs)) sorry to hear about that, Mother's day is hard for a lot of people, Step MIL lost her Mam 2 months back and I know she found yesterday very hard.

    Jue hope your little one feels better soon, sorry to hear about the bed, hope you manage to get the sheets dry, it's not exactly drying weather here!

    Welcome to the new comers, hope you enjoy joining us

    Right well, apart from getting kids up, dressed, fed, to school etc I have done nothing as I went for a lay down and just woke up. Must have needed it :o I think I got abot 2 hours sleep last night so no wonder really.

    Anyway, awake a raring to go so must make a dent in these jobs, hope everyone else is flying well (even if I seem to be stuck in the hanger this morning) DP decided to come home last night so have to also add going to collect his car at some point.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Hi chaps, especially Punky and Hex! As Hex says, I've been Flyladying my garden. Been keeping up in the house, but it's amazing how little needs doing when we're all outside :beer:

    Noticed that TNG has been popping in, but didn't see much Flyboy evidence :whistle: :shhh: :naughty:

    I have a carpenter in atm repairing floorboards in my spare room. Means that all the stuff from there is in the rest of the house. Good time for a clear out. :j

    Will pop back later with my done list - not slacking, honest ;)

    Hello Ladies

    Not sure if anyone noticed I wasnt around but had a couple of weeks off-line. Firstly Mum visited from Spain and we had her rental property to sort out (so lots of flying there), and I have had ear infection and DH comp fused too. I usually leave his comp on so I can update list etc. In my defense I would like to say i have been keeping on top of everything and even had a major "flying" session in the garden last week so that looks fab.

    We accepted an offer on our house over the weekend so excited about that but after the nightmare of the last offer trying to keep a lid on it until the survey has been done. As they want 7 week completion am hoping this will be done asap so we know whether we are packing or not. Have not said anything to DD1 as she was confussed last time, bless her.

    I shall join in properly tomorrow and follow the list to the letter but as we had viewers over weekend everything was polished into a inch of its life anyway!

    Congrats on the offer Shell - fingers crossed it goes better this time. I carried on accepting viewings right up to exchange, so our house was permanently clean.

    I have done the downstairs loo and made the sink suitably shiney but that is the limit of the effort here. Really need to get myself into gear. Playing with the boys instead, which was the point of the financial and career sacrifices involved in me being at home. Musical bumps anyone?

    Now to rescue #2 from car and give him lunch (and the dog, and cat and me).
    Is it home time yet?

    Afternoon all,

    Didn't manage much flying last week, we all have had stomach bugs even the dog - but bless him his was due to eating something which he shouldn't! Both computer and car broke down last week but fortunately neither cost too much to repair just the inconvenience of being with out for a few days.

    Back to normal this week, so list for today has looked like -

    Dailies - [STRIKE]WM, DW, Beds, Lunches, evening meal[/STRIKE], [STRIKE]bathroom ss, hoover main areas[/STRIKE]
