Well that started the day well - my boob squashing appointment a couple of weeks ago has resulted in an all clear. Good-oh.

Welcome OnlyPink. :wave: This Flying business has been a complete revelation to me, as well. Love Flyladies; this system is the only thing I've ever found that works.

Glad to hear boobies are OK - I found an ickle pea-sized lump last week, so will be taking a trip to the doctors soon I'm hoping this system works for me as I'm fed up living in chaos all the time.

So far today:
3 loads in WM then TD (raining here so can't hang out on the line).
Unpacked all the boxes for the study and reboxed items for storage in sturdy plastic lidded boxes. These are a peculiar fetish of mine that everyone laughs at, but I can label contents so things are easy to find in the loft, so I don't mind.
Taken all cardboard down to bonfire patch in the paddock.
Fed children and dogs.

Hmmm....doesn't look much for 3 hours work. I've been flat out, I promise :A
Kitchen after my cuppa!

Flying in.

Any washing advice for my colleague who has manky cricket whites to try to return to whiteness - currently decorated in cricket ball red, grass green, and dubious browns.

Will probably also be used on son's (used to be) white polo shirt (whatever school puts five year olds in white tops?)

Hi all x

Frodders:bdaycake: Happy birthday x
Mrs MP:bdaycake: Happy birthday and happy anniversary x
only pink :hello: welcome to the mad house x

I have about 45 minutes before I need to leave for work so I'm going to see what I can get done in the kitchen before I go.

HHC starting now if anyone wants to keep me company.

Glad boob squash was successful HONEY BEAR.

Well I've been flat out. Have emptied 4 cupboards and rearranged all the food in them after a good wipe so that's something off my summer list so very pleased.

Have just emptied out dd1s carrier bag of stuff she has brought home from school. Picked a few bits that can be stuck into scrapbook to keep. Am sure another bag will arrive home in next couple days from dd2....

Discovered last night that knitting has gone very very wrong. I'm really annoyed. As in I might need to start again wrong. And I was finished. It's a throw it in a bag job for now and I'll crack on with something else I think.

Dining room shuffling for now I think....

Hoppy Birdday Froddy :bdaycake:
Welcome OnlyPink

I shall Fly off-piste again; I'm still having to take it very carefully, lest the fatigue sledgehammer me again with zero warning. Gods, I hate lupus with a vengeance!:mad: *would throw a tantrum here, but I can't spare the spoons*

Patsy & Pandy should be here at 17:30, so the plan is to get the lounge dusted before they arrive - I picked up prodigious amounts of Ronnie-hair yesterday, so that will complete getting the lounge up to scratch again.:o Kitchen's already had a good going over.;)

Mr LW will be a tad late in tonight, as he's under orders to pop into @ldi on his way home; I shall hard-boil some eggs in a bit, for egg salad for dins.

Narc0lepsy

Happy birthday Froddington and Mrs MP

I'm exhausted after an enormous assessment; seems the student has about 4 different conditions. I'm sure she is as exhausted as me, poor thing. Lunch next.

There are many cricketing parents on here so you should get good advice.
I used to swear by damping the offending area well then rubbing hard green "Fairy" soap all over the stains then putting in the washer. Still didn't get all the dubious browns out - but they are boys - and girls now too!!


Have done some banking, HHI. washing, washed kitchen floor and now on with long standing paperwork pile - going down nicely.


I am cross because I mistakenly took a local call thinking it was OK and got another spam call!! re industrial deafness! I asked them to take me off their database as I'm on TPS - and have blocked the number now. Loving the new phone - saving loads of aggro and stress!


There are photos in the local papers of Tram Sunday - famous for five minutes!!

DizzyImp as a special favour for me could you make that GP appointment asap? It's probably nothing (in my case my only ever lump was a cyst) but a lump is a lump and needs to be seen by someone. And could you post to say you've made the phone call, please, or I'll have to add nagging you to my listy which is long enough as it is. Thank you.

Three lots of lamb-type casseroley thing made and the first of the batches is now bubbling very low in the s/cooker. Off to change the bed so that I can start another load in the WM ready to hang out when it stops raining later.

Thanks again for the thread and all the kind words and thoughts.

Nausea is improving, but I am as weak as a kitten. No danger of me overdoing today.
