    Morning everyone

    Now I am thinking that I really should check DSs hair after the outbreak a while back. Poor kid is full of cold though, he just seems to get one thing after another at the moment.

    I feel quite pleased with myself because I have managed quite a lot this week. The house isnt perfect and there are some bits that need attention but mostly its not too bad. Thanks for your encouragement everyone. You may not think that you encourage me but you do!

    A quiet weekend is on the cards. I just feel tired at the moment.

    Weather looks a bit better this morning though. I might actually hang some washing out before I go to work. Seems a long time since I put any outside.

    Have a good Friday all x

    Morning flyladies. Itching here now too.

    Sorting finances, then gym, bath, dog walking for me before the paid stuff today. I promise to try harder with the list next week.

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

    Morning!

    I am very sorry for virtually infesting you all :o

    DS is clear this morning! :T he sat for me to comb again and I found nothing! Hurrah!

    They are at school club and I've just done a hhc before I go to the garage. I've S&S the kitchen, put lots of stuff away, and given the sofas a good wipe down. Don't know if they were filthy or the dye was coming off on the cloth :o

    Garage is a bit far for me to come home, and apparently will only take an hour, so I'll go for a browse in Mr A over the road then grab myself a coffee.

    Then I actually want to go to Mr T - have vouchers will travel ;)

    WM hasn't finished so it will have to wait till I get back. Oh, I rinsed all the wellies under the outside tap too, they are all out drying now.

    See you this afternoon, feeling motivated today...
