Good morning all
Welcome newbies and returners :T. Fab - it’s just taken me an age to catch up as the thread has been so busy :T.
Round - just love it that only Flyladies could get so excited about new clothes props :rotfl:
It’s a beautiful morning out there. The first load of 2 washes is on, HHI has been cleared and now I need to clean the bathroom. I’m debating a walk to the lottie in the sunshine although the neglect might depress me as I haven’t really managed anything much there since September.
I’ve tidied out the fridge so carrot soup it is for lunch. And aubergine non- meatballs for dinner - let’s see how long it takes the troops to notice the difference come dinner time
Have a lovely day all. Hopefully back later to report on progress. X0 -

Just checking in.. I can't even remember when I was last here, I just don't seem to get my laptop out very often now.. putting it 'away' after using it has had a very beneficial result.. veyr little laptop time.. doesn't stop me playing on my phone though.
I'm on a blanket knitting spree.. 2 of OH's colleagues have babies due April and June so clearing some yarn stash in the direction of their baby baskets.. I have cleared a fair bit and then found a huge carrier of yarn from OH's mother.. knitting that up next for some warm cardies for Twinkle. She is permanently freezing.
I have almost receovered from the peopling at christmas.. total burnout after 5 weeks of non-stop running.
OH got half his wages this month due to being off for the whole of December.. not sure we will manage this month tbh and I am considering not making the loan payment and playing catch up until it is paid fully in August. he hasn't even got paid enough to cover the food bill and the car expenses. Ebeast may need to be hammered this month to get some money in.
I shuffled some stuff in my room yesterday and have a huge box ready for next christmas. I still need to get photos sorted for the outlaws christmas presents for when we visiit them in February, we didn't go over christmas due to him not being able to drive and didn't have enough notice of his dad visiting to get it sorted before he came.
I have 2 parcels to post tomorrow, a parcel to go back to Next (will sort that shortly) and I need to reorganise the boxes on top of the cupboards on the landing.
Laudry catch up needs doing again.. Boog brought his down, DS2 brought his down and changed his bedding, I changed my bedding and Twinkles bedding needed changing 2 days running thanks to a kitten! Thats a lot to get dry in winter.
Lovely to see Pooh and Skint.. I look forward to a catch up from you xx

Rabbit hutch cleaned and refilled; rabbits chased (gently) caught and cuddled. Not sure the washing is actually drying but it will be lighter. I too had a prop snap in the wind and need either to repair (feasible I think) or replace.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily Dickinson

Wow, where have I been for the last few days!
Dizzy, the flooding sounds like a nightmare although your description of your house and location sounds divine.
Natty, sorry I think my laptop was playing up which isn't surprising as its very slow.
Poohbear, lovely to 'see' you back
Welcome, Rosie3698. This is a lovely group to be part of.
skintbreeder, lovely to see you back too
I have been battling a migraine for a few days and am not sleeping well which hasn't helped. I wake up around 1 - 130 and then again between 4 and 5 every morning. Did manage to have a lovely catch up with DS on Thursday or Friday (you see I don't even know what day of the week it was) and I caught up with a friend I hadn't seen for a bit yesterday. Other than that it has been pretty much dog walking and computer work, job searching and applications (which take me ages). Flying just hasn't happened other than a few dailies. The cobwebs are still there and I know that I have to do them. My little cave is untidier than ever as I retrieved a few files from the old office for info in my applications, they don't have a home yet so are in a pile on the floor. I still have sewing stuff to sort and put away so it will be a while before it is finished. I also need to sort a design for some jackets that a friend wants me to decorate for her wedding in March :eek: . That will roll around quicker than I think it will.
So for the rest of today, I will be in my 'office' tidying and making sure I can demonstrate my commitment to my job search ready for tomorrows DWP appointment.

Good afternoon. Just popping in to say this week has been an absolutely no flying week! I ve had an war infection all week. Finally gave in and went to the doctors for antibiotics on Thursday but I still can't move quick without feeling sick and dizzy or feeling like I'm being stabbed in the head.
I have had to clear and sweep hall this morning then put shopping away and I've got some washing in as little ones need uniform for tomorrow.
Hopefully I'll do better this coming week.LBM in April 17 - Starting card debt £33554

Afternoon all
Back from our walk, couple of miles done, it was nice, very cold and crisp.
WM x 1 just swished, the basket isn’t empty but at least I’m on top of it, will load again and set the timer for the morning, will sort the laundry and then do a bit of food prep for the week as it’s going to be another busy one.
Have a nice afternoon x0
