Need to crack on tomorrow. Hopefully going to do kitchen, dining room, living room, porch and conservatory.
Its pretty much all open plan, so shouldn't be too bad.
Will post again in the morning with any 'extras'.
Night....

[strike]Remove clutter making sure stairs especially are safe [/strike]
[strike]Clean TV, other electricals and cabinets[/strike]
[strike]Water any thirsty plants, wipe their poor neglected leaves!![/strike] - don't have any, it would only be one more thing to neglect!
Level 3
Wipe light switches, sockets (make sure they are not switched on!!) and banister
[strike]Clean any other glass like mirrors, pictures etc [/strike]
[strike]Tidy shoes, coats and bags .. wash any that need washing in preparation for cold weather!! See if there are any that don't fit, past their best or just plain uncomfy which could leave the house![/strike]

Morning all. Can't believe we're back on. Missed you all, so decided to start posting again.
DS2 back to school today but DS1 off till tomorrow still. should get some flying done though because he usually sits in his room all day.
Hubby is off work for 'god only knows' how long. He's been in hospital twice with an infection in his knee. he's had 5 operations on it and now he can't walk. It is such a good job that i am organised this year for christmas and have got most of the pressies or we would be screwed. Still not sure how we will manage normal living on what we have coming in, but we will just coz we have to.:eek:
Anyway. hope you are all well.
And big hugs to all that need them. And prayers being said here for baby matthew.

Good Morning everyone
I have really missed this site and all of you .I have half heartedly done some flying!! I have emptied a kitchen cupboard, lots of things fell out and glasses broke one after the other just when I cleaned up the first glass all over the floor. Now I have a very clean floor!!

lil me - I hope that Matthew will keep strong, I am thinking and praying for him and his famlily.

Pigpen you keep me motivated ,how are we to catch up? I really should post as I catch up with everyone each day.Must try and do some flying- starting now WELL Maybe.

Thanks Pigpen

I'm not posting alot but I'm still here doing a bit! I'm training people at work this week so yesterday I dropped the littlies at school and playschool, was at work just before 9.30am and left to come home just after 7pm......... rather a long day and I have to do it again today. I'm scared my house will just be charred remains when I come home as when I leave the house the DW, WM, TD, BM and SC are all on!! :eek: Luckily my mum comes over to fetch the littlies from school so she can check that everythings ok.:D

So, have to leave in 10 mins - big ((hugs)) cos I miss you all when I work silly-o-clock hours. xx

Woooooooooohoooooooooooooo :wave: helloooooo

Blimey was getting a serious case of the DT's :rotfl::rotfl:only managed to get on here this morning.

I have managed to get some stuff done round here but have missed the chat. Glad everyone is ok.

Sending BIG hugs to Baby Matthew which is difficult to do with crossed fingers He sounds like he is a real fighter.

Glad to see you online lil_me sounds like you have put those nerves to good use, well done with all the unpacking, but please try and relax or you'll burn out.

Well better go and get some more stuff done, catch you all later.

Hello everyone!

Was seriously at a loose end yesterday without this thread - just shows how much time I must be on here chatting and reading the thread! I missed everyone really badly!

Hope everyone is doing well. Sorry to hear that things went downhill with little Matthew so quickly lil_me. Hopefully now he's had his op he will start to improve. Keeping my fingers and toes crossed for him.

Well I didn't do any flying yesterday - BAD MOUSE! Will whizz around the kitchen today cos I'm off to play nurse once I've got dressed, as my Mum has hurt her back, so I'm taking round my ingredients to make my flapjacks that I've been meaning to make for the last week. Got some cranberries for free yesterday to put in them for a change, as there was a voucher on the milk carton.

I'm going to Portsmouth on Thursday to sign up to a supply agency that I came across at the teaching fair I went to last week, so hopefully I will be out in the classroom and earning some proper money soon. I'm a bit scared though cos I haven't taught since June, and I think I've lost a bit of my confidence due to all of the knock backs I've had.

Well the kitchen is calling me (luckily I don't have a dining room so that's one less room to worry about), so I'd better get a wriggle on, or my Mum will wonder where I've got to as well.

Happy flying today everyone! It's so nice to be back!
