Extra Mission
Choose one or more of:

Oh, nearly forgot, just done level one today. My op hasn't worked so i've got to go and have something more drastic done so a bit fed up. Anyway, can't have anything done till DH not working away so won't think about it yet. Have a good day xx

I'd be far to depressed to do level one so you are doing marvellously... I REALLY hope the next course of action works!!! ((((((hugs))))))

Hiya!!!

Happyathome - are you on a hot date then? Don't think i'd have the energy lol!

Don't be silly!! I was on official Mummy business... Still, I did find myself waving manically at every car that passed so they would notice that I was with a hunky soldier (and wearing lipstick). Gossip is a bit thin on the ground here at the moment...
So sorry to hear about your op - that is pants.
Pipen - I've got some spare medication - but I think you and happy pills would be very very dangerous!!
I didn't get the floor done before I went out, so Ill hop to and do it now - and I'm inspired to do it the old-fashioned way. Bye bye!!

Morning all (well it is just!!) Im back from my 8 days sitting in a bog in Wales having some of the worst weather ever. Came back yesterday and tried to catch up on a bit of sleep (having had an average of 3-4 a night) and so the house is a tip with everything everywhere from coming back.

I havent had a chance to catch up on last weeks thread, and probably wont. So i hope everyone is ok. Welcome to the newbies, our little flylady (and boy!) community seems to be growing!

Washing load 4 is in and 2 load of dishes are draining (3rd lot soaking or sitting on the side still :mad: ) Haven't done anything else apart from lunch Can't really do the kitchen until all the dishes are washed & put away. Soooo I'm going to tackle the log books for school. I just need to find a really bright part of the house to take the photos as I can't use the flash as they are so old! :rolleyes: Ebay listings can wait. With 3 log books to do (all at least 300 pages and then there are the additional pieces of papers "filed" in the books :rolleyes: ) I could be a while and I want to hand them back tomorrow at the meeting

Right, off to find a bright place :wave:
