Mary - sorry about your sad news. Sounds like you have a lot left to do, but at least you're organised and know what you are doing, I'm all over the place.

melissa - organised ? Well, I've got a ''list'' and trying to work my way through it. They're all little things really (apart from shoe boxes and door hangers -major stress factor !!) so should get them done.............I hope................lol

Trying to work to some sort of timetable........
Tomorrow:
Finish pickled bums and baby socks - maybe do door hangers

Oh lor..........just seen I got another gravy pot to cover..............:rotfl:

Hey Mary sorry to hear about your old boss.

I did a bit more of my sisters cross stitch but its slow going as its really complex and I'm spending most of my time going boggle eyed!!
Still need to get the bits to make my french memo boards including a staple gun. Anyone know where I can pick one of them up cheap??

Mary sorry to hear your sad news. You sound very organised. Every time I read what you are doing I wish you had a way of posting your pics as i would love to see everything you have made.
I must make a list on paper, it is all in my head at the moment and all on my to do list:rotfl: I have just started my 365 facts jar. 365 pieces of paper to cut and fold is an awful lot isn't it:rotfl:

bunbun - might sound organised but honest it aint..........I've got a list, loads of stuff half done and a chaotic household !!!
Still, it's fun and I've fast come to the conclusion that what doesn't get done this year will be well organised for next year......................lol:rotfl:
Though I'll be mad with myself if I don't get it done........after all - we're still in September..............aren't we ? (judging by weather its November already !)

Don't have all the hi tech stuff for piccys otherwise I'd show you the total mess my room is in that I so carefully de-cluttered earlier this year..............lol As for what I've done so far...............well, nuff said:rotfl:
