    Morning all, lovely and sunny here and I'm back to work today just as I was unwinding into my long weekend..grrr.
    Had a really good time up at some friends yesterday afternoon and turned a corner in my miserableness, still not brill though. Supposed to be out this evening for a curry with my uncle so I may not be flying 'til late if at all.
    Jill, I've one of these, they're pricey but try e-bay or amazon for bargainatious ones.

    Hae a lovely day. May catch you later.

    Morning All

    So far, the TD & WM are both on and I've ironed the stuff that I took out of the TD so still no ironing pile!

    Didn't really do anything in the kitchen yesterday so really I've got to do the whole of the downstairs.

    I also need to:

    Find rental DVDs and send them back
    Cancel DVD subscription
    Strip DD's bed - she wanted to know yesterday why I'd done everyone elses and not hers!
    Finish putting ironing away that I did yesterday.
    Sort out kids' clothes and get rid of anything that doesn't fit.
    And all the other things I'm bound to think off.

    DS has just helped me to clean the table and he has cleaned the cupboard doors. Now he is trying to pick up all the rubbish :D. It is so sweet-he made sure that he wiped any marks of the cupboard and made a real effort :D

    Its looking cold outside here today. Haven't been out yet. Off to the dentist at 10.30 with DD2 and DD3. Haven't got much else planned today so getting all levels done shouldn't be too difficult.

    Have a great day everyone

    Oh and just out of curiosity what is ORFing?

    ORF is Operation Red Fiat - Soappie has a camera trained on her drive at home to find out who has been parking on it while she is at work. Some of the flyladies access this over the web and watch what's going on. So you may read ORF updates or Buster (which is soappie's name for the camera) throughout the day!

    Morning :wave:

    That horrible white stuff that was laying last night has gone this morning - yay! it's a few degrees warmer but still a little chilly. Kids sorted and packed off to school, I've hoovered through the entire downstairs, tidied the living room, made a pack-up, put some excess Easter Eggs into the spare fridge (they're starting to annoy me) and emptied the maiden. Gonna type this up then zoom down to Asda to see if littleys Duck is half price (I must be mad)

    Work this avo for 3 hours so no biggie today, I feel odd saying this but I kinda miss my work when I'm off, I don't think I like not having my days structured :o

    Went at my callus with a pumice stone last night after soaking it for an hour, it's a bit smaller but it's obviously a work in progress lol

    list time:

    [strike]hoover through[/strike]
    [strike]tidy living room[/strike]
    move easter eggs
    [strike]empty maiden[/strike]
    go to Asda
    pay rent
    S&S kitchen
    empty DW
    reload DW
    make beds
    fling open windows
    quick tidy upstairs
    prep veg for tea
    put rubbish in bin outside
    put re-usable shopping bags in car
    take junk on the stairs upstairs whilst I'm going up

    Can't think of anything else, right I'm off to Asda, laters x
