Been doing really well this week and enjoying it as well (does that make me weird!!) Got to go to work tomorrow so might get a head start on tomorrows list tonight, or I may just go and get a well earned glass of wine!
Hope everyone else is ok, with all this flying I haven't had chance to read through the thread or post much!! Got to sort that out really, although I'm sure my eagerness for flying will wear off a bit! Half my house looks sooooo bewtiful though! :rotfl:
Think I might go for the wine and a read through now... the bathroom and everything will still be there tomorrow!!

LOL @ Tia
Evening all
Have done no flying today, apart from WM and DW. DH gone away for a few days so am looking forward to having house to myself for a bit. DS has been an angel again today, so feel a bit better about all that.
Too be honest I don't really have a lot to say, feeling very unmotivated today, have various jobs I could be doing tonight - ordering some photos/filing but can't get going.
Wonder if some chocolate might help....Lightbulb moment 15th Feb 2007:doh: Now Debt Free and plan on it staying that way!
Baby on board!:D0
