Morning all and sorry all is not good in so many flylady homes to day - sending you all good vibes and huge hugs.

Done my dalies but feeling rough so not planning on much flying. I have lots of clothes upstairs which need altering so I think I'll get the sewing machine out and sit in a sunny spot and see what I can do with some of them. If I get that done then paperwork.

DS1 went off on his field trip today so I hope he has a fab time.

Wasting time here when I should be getting on with the things I want to get done today!
I have already washed the master bedroom bedlinen, and as there is nothing else to do in the room, except run the vacuum round, I should be done in five minutes!;)

Then I want to take all the garden rubbish to the tip, pop into B&Q to see if they have a small propagator, and some short lengths of gutter to grow peas and salad leaves in, and get the bread and milk on the way back.

Then with a bit of luck, I should be able to get the hedge planted, and maybe have enough energy to do something with the boys after lunch.

OH just rung to say he's booked the first two weeks of the summer holiday, so I can go ahead and book the gite. I want to find another one about halfway back to Calais. By coincidence, that will be just in the right place for loads of famous and beautiful Normandy gardens. Perfect.:D

((moam))- we're always here.

((johanne)) - try to concentrate on your baby if you can, that's the most important thing.

((g&b)) - Mudbath will do some special money-seeking incantations for you I'm sure.

Right.. one bill paid.. almost up to date.. a bit nearer at least!! I need to pay my mobile bill before I pay anything else.. but my phone is upstairs.. and I am lazy! lol.. ok.. my hips are killing me today.. I was ok going to school as I had the buggy but coming home.. I didn't.. OUCH!!

I need to post the ebay stuff before I go collect tiddles... but I have one more parcel to sort out.. and I can't remember where I put it.. or maybe I can.. I just need to think about it.

I have a bag of stuff for charity shop I may drop in on the way to PO.. and I have a bag for recycling to out out tonight.

pigpen

yay... phone paid.. for 2 weeks lol..

I think I spend half my life juggling money.. robbing Peter & Paul to pay Percy.. lol...

HHC 11-11:30 anyone?? I need to dash to PO after that though.. but I can get through my dailies in half an hour.. anyone??

Mudbath

g&b - money is coming easily to you, money is coming easily to you, money is....

I got the job! on a temporary basis subject to this and that and the moon rising in mercury on a day with a z in it. I'm starting tomorrow at 7:15am with the kids. They thought this mornings 8:15am interview was early, boy are they in for a shock. I celebrated by pushing a trolley round Asda purchasing all the things I don't trust the Tesco delivery lot to get right. Found lots of whoopsies including 3 packs of school tights reduced to £3, scanned at £6 so I took them to customer services who gave me a refund and a £2 gift card.

Panic is beginning to set in though. I'm going to actually have to do something rather than looking at the list of things to do and thinking nah... I'll go read a book. Will be Flying on a major scale. Apparently it involves mopping 2 school halls on a weekly basis along with washing a million windows and cleaning thousands of toilets. I get to delegate to the cleaners though. My own team of Fly-ladies in training to boss around. Can you tell the power has gone to my head already? Fortunately theres no dress code so no wondering what I'm going to wear. Honest. Will it be the scruffy jeans or the really scruffy jeans? Will have to do lots and lots and lots of housework today in anticipation of being knackered tomorrow. So off for an early lunch break.

Hugs to all who need them.

For those with money worries something will crop up. It usually does!
