    Hello all

    Used to do flylady up until a year ago, then things went to pot a bit and for the last few months have been on the hoarding thread :eek: which has helped me no end and feel now is the time to restart flylady in order to keep on top of things, rather than them on top of me IYSWIM.

    Thanks Natty for the thread.

    L-L is in my thoughts - an inspiring lady.

    Thanks for a new list. Still 'bits & pieces' in a very unstructured way today - but hey, the soup and cakes I made yesterday were admired and one friend just emailed me for the soup recipe. Lounge/dining room had been tidied yesterday just in case (and just as well, as friends did come round for coffee after meal) so all ready for MIL who's just had dinner with us. Had a fair blitz of one end of the kitchen but rather spoiled the other by emptying my handbag frantically looking for my reading glasses (don't you hate that age?) then rushing out. So tomorrow I must definitely attack that area after work.

    No freelance work till Friday, so must finish writing up last week's.

    Have a good week everyone.

    3 little candles lit and 3 big glasses of vino slurped, whilst thinking of LadyLiberty xxx

    I too am starting the week with no ironing - last lot has been done and is airing on the maiden. Washing has all been dried outside this weekend so am pleased.

    Have lit a virtual candle on Diva's page for our friend Lady_Liberty; I am hoping that she is as pain-free as possible and is peaceful; special thoughts for her boy, Pierce - you have a mum to be proud of - and for her close friends and family.

    Link there for anyone who wishes to light candles or view those lit.
