morning everyone from a shattered me. Slept well apart from my car alarm going off at 4:45am this morning. I just nudged DH to sort it out, and then rolled over. I felt more awake then.

maralum still with us hun?

denise welcome back

nabowla welcome, and i think the bit you want is in the User CP bit, and edit options on left hand side. go to miscellaneous options at bottom, and choose the enhanced, WYSIWIG option. hope that helps

anyway, i am pleased with myself as i spent 30 mins sorting out the hostspot of the baby clothes in the spare room last night, and i made a big dint. Clothes he can wear are now in sets and just need putting in his cupboard, and the stuff that is too big is hung up in size order, and the stuff that is too small needs boxing up. I've only been putting this off since xmas. :eek: will keep doing a minimum of 15 mins per night till i get there..

nabowla - i struggled with this for AGES!! you are probably doing this already but this is what i was missing - i found that when i wanted to try to change colour, size or strike through - i typed what i wanted first and then highlighted the bit of text and then selected what i wanted - i always previewed as it doesn't change your text until its posted - sorry if you are doing this already but it took me a while to realise i had to do this!!

morning everyone just got back from preschool walk - am going to do dw, washing and begin lr which is still tidy so won't take long - last load of covers on line so will change those later - then am going to take dd2 off to beach before picking up dd1 from preschool - dd2 has swimming at lunchtime too so a busy lunchtime here

catch you all later

Hiya everyone
Right, I think my computer problems are finally solved (famous last words)! Today i'm going to do level 3in the living room, hall and landing and a bit of work in the master bedroom. Taking my parents out for lunch today so i'd better get started. Isn't this weather gorgeous.
Catch up later xx

Oi you lot slow down I have barely started :rotfl:

Right spent ages transfering old freezer stuff into new, defrosting that now. Listed everything going to try to be much more organised. Filled a bag for charity collection (for a change I got a genuine one, Air Ambulance) managed 28 which I was impressed with, clutter going eventually.

Puppy, little madam! Hobbling this morning, I let her outside and she was running around the garden, then when se came in hobbled again. Seems as soon as I turned my back she did it. I left the room and she did a leap onto the sofa (I seen of course) then when I came in to tell her to move she held the poorly paw out! The little monster was playing on it, something I didn't thing dogs were capable of!!

Living room still a lot to do, have made a start. It's actually not too bad clutter wise. Just a good clean needed.

Right best go and get on with it, happy flying everyone
