Had you been sampling the birthday gin when you fly polished - takes doing flylady to a new level 😂😂January spends - £587.588 -
No Milann I can’t blame it on the gin 🤣 I’m blaming it on stress. At least I’ve hit my steps target today, I haven’t sat down most of the day, been in pacing mode, I’ve covered a few miles that’s for sure. I’ll calm down once I’m on the plane.There is Prosecco chilling in the fridge 🥂I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5

Hope you have a fabulous time on holiday. XXI Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy6 -
Hope you have a fab holiday enjoy every minute6

Have a wonderful, wonderful time on holiday SA - you deserve it!🍹🍹🍹🏖🏖🏖I had to smile too about Mr SA and the pruning shears saga.........🤣
Re the fly spray I remember doing it the other way around years ago when I was married. I used Pledge instead of the fly spray. I wondered why the fly looked a bit foamy. It certainly stopped him in his tracks! Ex-husband said I should get out a duster and polish him up!Finally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟
