    Thank you for the list Valli :D I won't be deserting you this week, will just be doing what I can around the displaced furniture :D

    Did hoover the floors in the house, even picked up after the dogs when they insisted on destuffing their toys after I had hoovered :p

    Had a disagreement with DH over how quickly I wasn't putting everything back - I did explain to him I didn't do it the last couple of weeks as it was too blooming hot to even move. I think he thought I would have the house back to normal two days after the work had been done..grr men :mad: He then took me on a guilt trip and said he had purposely not gone down to the gym/spa today so he could help put stuff back. Well I didn't ask him to stay at home did I?

    Oh and he is also fretting as we think I may be expecting..at my age!!!!!!! To tell you the truth I hadn't even thought about it but I was updating my calender yesterday and well realised AF had been on a holiday for a while..oops!! So that is something else for him to fret over..and blame me for it too. Oh well I am sure it will sort itself out in the wash.. :D

    I saw Poohbear had come back to us last week - hopefully we'll see her over here :D

    Off to hunt down some munchies, I'm feeling rather hungry.. :D

    Can I ask what the difference is between this weekly thread and the flylady website? Been looking at the American flylady when I came across this. Thanks!


    The differences? well we're a very friendly bunch who encourage each other and we won't fill your inbox with e-mails!

    And welcome to our thread!

    I'm in - haven't done enough since I got back from mum's yesterday. So I've got loads to do tomorrow!

    Am watching The white Queen and drinking squash - see you tomorrow!!

I have a test in the wardrobe so will take one first thing tomorrow morning when I get up, and he is out of the house..lol Not panicking too much though as I've been late before but not 2 weeks..lol What will be will be..as they say. :D
