    Great news Dancemum!

    Hope your throat feels better Dusty

    I mopped the floors and DH jet washed the patio. A huge gentleman came to give us a quote for the leaking bathroom problem. He made DS1 look small and he is 6'3".

    Looking forward to tomorrow.

    Going to have a cheeky G&T as it's kind of like a bank holiday when the kids have a NPD. I'll toast Bossy!

    Thank you all for contributing to Declutter Tuesday - I have complied a list of all your suggestions for anybody struggling for an idea.

    Honeybear well done for completing today's list.

    Just popping in really quickly to say sorry I missed the start of the week, I can't be around this week, and thank you for the birthday wishes. We've had some really awful news in the family (not my immediate family, all ok with kiddies and grandparents) that has temporarily put me back to square one :( but I'll pull myself together and be back on the flylady bus very soon.

    Much hugs to everyone.
