    Dusty - glad you're making progress too.
    HB - brilliant news on MrsDog.

    DH and I have completed all the jobs we had planned for this weekend and it feels so good. I think we will go out again next Saturday which is the only day over the BH weekend we've got together.

    Just waiting for the ice cream van as a reward (just an ice cream not the whole van), need to bring the last of the washing in and take the dogs for a walk when the temperature cools down a bit, oh and make roast dinner for tonight.

    And does anyone know what I should do with chard?

    Hello All

    Please may I join (again!) last time I managed all of two days :o

    I really need some motivation and hoping to find it here.

    Tonight I pledge to clean the kitchen and shine the sink ready for my flylady journey. I will post later when I have done.

    I've hung out 2 loads of washing, dead headed the sweetpeas, loaded the DW.. with pans so about 10 things in it.. and folded a basket of laundry and I am absolutely exhausted!!!

    I can't just sit here... I'll either fall asleep or get the fidgets and continue my Christmas shopping!!!

    pigpen You have chosen a beautiful name for a beautiful baby :) xx


    I have copied this link from https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/3911061 'please let me be lucky' who has sometimes posted on Flyladies. Things are not good for her at all. But her DS1 has been nominated for an award and I said i would help promote it. So here it is... If I am breaking Flylady rules I am sorry but she is an amazingly strong lady who has had lots of things to cope with in life and she is doing well but could do with a boost and maybe some good luck in life.

    leave it in Somerset?

    Demolish all the ugly buildings (if there are any) therein?

    :cool::rotfl:

    Been to town; popped to Matalan and got DS a duvet set and a fitted sheet set (each comes with a pillowcase half price - woot.

    Checked, before I paid, I could return them if he didn't like them;)

    He likes them!

    ETA voted;)

    Welcome back BG - beauty of this thread is that old friends and new friends and returning friends and pop-back-inners are always welcome.
