    Morning all

    Well I survived yesterday and have a nice shiney kitchen to show for it so here I am again today :)

    So far today :-
    Bedding in WM
    BM on with a lovely granery loaf
    DD in school
    DH in work
    kitchen neatened up after breakfast

    To do :-
    Ironing to be put away
    Cats to be fed
    Hall to be sorted
    Sort tea - HM Pizza & Potato Wedges
    Bake batch of Hobnobs
    Cook Chicken and Sweetcorn Soup

    OMG what a day today !!!! Tomorrow is going to be hard because DD has "share" in school where basically I go and take part in her lessons with her for a couple of hours. She loves it and so do I but hope there isn't too much flying to be done alongside it - lol.

    Hope everyone is ok - will read messages when I stop for my 1st brew !!!

    Morning Flyladies.

    A nice quiet night shift which is what I like.

    Saw a intersting "sight" bout 2am. There is a phone box a little distance away. Someone was in there ages. Next thing I know is they come out kegs down and did what they needed to on the grass then back in the phone box. They were either high on drink or drugs as they staggered all over.

    Did some of todays flying at the weekend. Going to see mum shortly then bed for a couple of hours.

    My cat just found himself a mouse!!! They must be waking up from their winter sleep.. so what did he do?? .. dumped it under the kitchen table!!!!!!!!!! He is a monster... why can't he take them outside and chew their heads off???

    Thankfully I caught him and managed to get it in the bin before he got himself riddled with worms or worse!! :eek: It is a good job I'm not a proper girl!!

    Solwaykid - Congrats on your promotion!!! :beer:

    skintscotslass - YEAH Everton!!!!

    Morning everyone. I didn't get any flying done last night. OH and I had an argument and I went out for a few hours. :mad: Not going to bother moaning about it as it will just make me more angry.

    I did quite a bit in the kitchen over the weekend so, I will catch up on what I've missed from the list, tonight. Glad it's Master Bedroom today - at least I can do some flying in peace while OH is downstairs. That will make him stew a bit longer. (No, I am not literally stewing him although it has crossed my mind...:rotfl: )

    Right, I've got a meeting at 10:30 that will last for 2-3 hours, I'm guessing. *sigh* Will someone send me one of those viruses so I can get out of it? :p

    :coffee: anyone?

    Morning

    Reporting for another day of non flying :p *salutes Pigpen*

    Got the new dishwasher arriving today so have to make sure the hall is clear at least, so that is some flying! A has her class assembly this morning at 10.30 so will be nipping to watch that.

    Need some good luck vibes for the weekend as I am going to have to go and see MIL to talk about the inquest seeing as I can't depend on SIL to do it (still seething about it) The w/e is the first chance I will get as Dad is going to go with me for moral support.

    First stop though :coffee:
