    Afternoon all

    Not much flying done today, did have some ME time and finally dyed my hair, which has made me feel loads better.

    House is generally tidy, just caught up on all washing. DS due back from his dad's anytime now so will have more washing to do.

    Am doing a car boot tomorrow, weather permitting, so hopefully I will be able to get rid of most of the [STRIKE]tat[/STRIKE] quality goods. One man's rubbish and all that!:)

    Hope the party is going well Pigpen.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend x

    Well, Dusty and Froddington, just get off your podiums right now and make room for me! Have watched everything, and am so proud of our athletes - they have done our country proud - big WELL DONE cheers from me!!!

    Don't think you can sneak in at the last minute - I've been working hard at this since the opening ceremony :rotfl: Ironing all up to date though as I iron in front of the tv.

  • ** Happy Birthday Squeak ** _party__party_

    Hope the party is going well pigpen and all your efforts are appreciated ;)

    It's my baby boy's birthday tomorrow - he's 18 :eek: I am wrapping stuff for him this evening - he is having a BBQ at his Dad's today and will be back tomorrow. For his birthday meal he has chosen: sausages, bacon, waffles and chocolate donuts :cool: DD made him a cake this afternoon while I was at work (also chocolate). We have put balloons everywhere, that will annoy him, and make us laugh. We might even put a water bomb on the front door cos we're childish like that :p

    Other than basics, realistically I'm not going to fly again this weekend so I'll not stress and start afresh on Monday.

    Big hugs to poorly / sad people xx

    FLYLADY OLYMPIC-WATCHING UPDATE

    "And it's neck & neck between dustykitten and rowan tree. There's nothing between them and both are very determined. The question is, will someone else overtake them on the final strait??"

    Tune in tomorrow, folks, for another update. Who will be the golden girl?

    Have started - prioritising me & cleaning over `us eating meals 2gether' - read hours of me shopping & preparing it whilst BF watches tv/surfs internet - not considering what chores can be done in at that same time!

    So no cooking done today - saves alot of my time & mess. BF came home from work & I started vacuuming once he was inside - he then went in kitchen to discover no dinner & is currently eating sausage rolls from the fridge.

    Losing weight is something I wanted to do the past year & smoking/snatching salads & the like whilst flying will hopefully get me back to my 2011 figure!
