  • Thank you for lists. I will trying to get back to flying this week as the house needs it.....and pronto.

    I foolishly opened my mouth and invited one of DS's friends and Mother for a play date at my house........so I need to get all the downstairs pristine, and lock up the pack of BD that have been lurking and snarling recently.

    I will make a start once I get back from Group BD therapy tomorrow.

    Hugs, sticks and spoons ....see you tomorrow
    The cold never bothered me anyway

    I'm in too thanks, although if this weather keeps up it's going to be trying to get the garden under control. Maybe I should list each area like we do rooms.....that should take until about Christmas!!

    Also got latest report to write up.

    But talking of weather, solar panels had a good day according to the meter reading!!

    Have a good week everyone.

    Have a great day everyone.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Morning

    I'm in, thank you for the threads.

    Had an impressive migraine last night so I'm limiting screen time today.

    Lots of appointments this week to fit around. A bright day so far.

    Back later x

    Morning flyladies :wave:

    Hope you're all well, here's hoping this springy weather knocks all of our niggly illnesses on the head!

    I have my first 'proper' day off in weeks today, I am so looking forward to some peace and quiet for a few hours. Thankyou for all the sympathy regarding yesterday's whinge, I felt a lot better just for getting it off my chest :) Having "words" with DSD helped too, I won't lie to you, her backchat is unacceptable and is usually reserved for DH but she gobbed off to me and I let rip in return :o

    I made the mistake of thinking I was off to a flying start this morning as I have WUDUPA and fed the WM already, then it emerged that DS2 has lost his drinks bottle again, broken the spare drinks bottle I bought last week and lost one school shoe :mad: why is life rarely straightforward?! It would have been a lot easier if he'd mentioned the missing items when I picked him up on Friday afternoon rather than waiting until 8.15 this morning.

    Deep breaths, this too shall pass. I'll be back in a bit to compile my list.

    Have a great day everyone xx

    Good Morning all

    The sun is still shining here so I have the first lot of towels in the machine. I've tidied around, put away the laundry and the ironing board, emptied the bins, sent the first email I needed to.

    Today I must:
    [STRIKE]descale the iron
    Food shop at Mr L and Mr M
    Read two lots of minutes[/STRIKE]
    Send more emails
    Check bank accounts
    Ring VM
    Hoover and Mop
    [STRIKE]S&S sinks and toilets[/STRIKE]

    if I do all that I'll treat myself to another HH in the front garden to finish the border I started yesterday

    Good morning :D


    I am sort of in this week. Thanks Dusty for the lists.


    I am eagerly awaiting the delivery of my new DW :j I have emptied the cupboard under the sink and removed the stair gate in readiness. I have paid the extra for installation (it is an integrated one). This also means that they will take the old one away. It hasn't worked for a month or so, and had been loaded before I realised it had packed in, so it stinks!! I had sprinkled some bicarb in it, but it hasn't done a lot of good :( I am really hoping that it is all done before this afternoon, as the baby arrives at 12.15 and I really need the stair gate back on by then!


    Other than that, I have 1 load in the WM & I will hang that out when it's done, and 1 more load to do.


    I also need to do some studying as it has dawned on me that my research project is due in a month :eek: and I have so much to do!! :eek: :eek:
