    Thanks for the thread JulieJim. Count me in this week please

    Lovely news Ionafan!

    Natty - lovely to have you back x

    Welcome to the new flyers. You'll soon learn the ropes. It's very friendly here.

    DS1 got out of bed at 6.45am to go to college this morning - I nearly hyperventilated with shock. I'm rather tired today as I went to see Olly Murs last night at his home town concert. He was fantastic as usual (only been 5 times:o) Getting out the car park was ridiculous and we didn't get home until 12.30.

    DH saw an ENT consultant about a hearing aid today. He's now been told he's not deaf and has signed forms for an exploratory operation. :eek:

    Not to bad flying but I've amended the list to show my extended paintwork cleaning efforts.

    Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room

    [STRIKE]Clear floors[/STRIKE]
    Level Two
    Clear and wipe worksurfaces

    [/STRIKE]

    Clean filters on appliances
    [STRIKE]Clear and wipe table
    [/STRIKE]
    Extras
    [STRIKE]Empty all bins

    Ninth Anniversary
    Hello all will catch up with thread later.

    Back in this week after weeks away looking after Mum who broke her hip in a fall.In the last nine weeks I've only been home one of them!
    DH has kept on top of things and because of flylady thread the house was quite good before I went away.

    Back at work today and walked three miles home so I am tired already but will manage level one.

    Hugs to all

  • Well I can't work out the cut and paste thing yet but I have done up to Level 3 in the kitchen (except for the filters -who knows what or where they might be) and the place is looking much better. Swept and mopped all the floors downstairs while I was at it.

    Third load of washing on the line and the dishwasher has just finished so that's the next job.

    I think this might be manageable even for me, although the house is full of kids again so it will start going downhill again soon.
