Weekly Flylady Thread 10th December 2012

LameWolf

Thank you everyone; you're all so kind.:A

Part of the MH side of my problems is that I get very, very stressed and upset at the slightest thing, to the point of shaking uncontrollably and even being physically sick (sorry if tmi), and I just cannot cope with that stress.
And that's not taking into account all my physical problems and constant pain!:cool: This is going to be.... interesting, methinks!:eek:

I'm off for a quick peruse of the paper before it's history!:D

"See" you tomorrow.:o

Well, I havent done any wrapping. I watched the soaps

But, DW as been on, have opened the ensuite window as I hung wet towels on the towel rail and it was all steamed up. Must remember to use the other loo tonight brrrr is very foggy and icy out there...

But, kitchen dailies are done, tea has been drunk and hot water bottles made up. One for each of us, kiddies have been in bed 2hrs but I've turned heating down to frost setting, so I've tucked a nice warm cuddle in for each of them. I will make those babies as soft as I am lol.

So am now away to bed, as I'm drooping. Taking tots to party tomorrow aft, really must check where that is

Hmm whilst checking my emails, I've found out I'm in credit by £97 on my lekky and £114 on my gas. That's June to November. They are keeping it to go towards the winter bill. It sounds like a lot but if the gas is about 1/3 of my payments, I probably will use that extra over the winter? I ought to look into the previous year and see how much more the winter v summer was...

went to governors tonight so have done very little in the house bar wash up after tea!!

going to a carol concert with a friend tomorrow evening, not sure I'm looking forward to it as earlier today I slipped over in the car park at work and jarred my back and it's very stiff and achy so sitting still may be a problem we shall see...

OH still in the depths of despair and that's a worry

off to bed now, very cold here!

Skintbreeder - you slow down and take of yourself. You are SO busy it's amazing - with or without ankles!

Good wishes, R x

Thank you so much RT! I am on enforced slow down....my toes feel like sausages tonight, although my ankles definitely look smaller for being off them for a few hours- no stupid o'clock flying tonight no matter how much I can't sleep!
