Afreshstart
Here we go everyone, 1st Sunday thread round up of the month , in which, so far we've been joined by lots of new babies and new comers, and will shortly be joined by yet more babies! Yay! We have, collectively, among other things, been contemplating sleep deprivation, budgeting methods, body clutter, spidery cupboards of doom, cold cat paws, oh, and compost … .
Afreshstart is getting us all excited and broody as she tries to hurry things along with the birth of her new baby. Rather than drinking raspberry leaf tea and eating curry, she has opted for Flying instead! 
Furble has also been nesting and walking and preparing for labour. It's well past her due date and we haven't heard from her for a while so … could it be her mini-Fledgling has already arrived...?? [Hoping all well and sending all best wishes x]
Herdofantilop did lots of decluttering of boxes to Oxfam – yay! Unfortunately, her dc then passed on their flu bug to her [proffers grapes and honey & lemon drink]. Hope you are beginning to feel better now!
Shesgotelectricboobs is in the process of transforming her spare room. She has been ebaying and bagging up things for the charity shop and has decluttered her make up/hair/misc drawer – yay! She also went for a horse ride and delegated the bed-making (now that's what I call successful Flying!!)
Toostressyformyowngood has been “decluttering biscuits”
and has been busy balancing work and studies and household duties, report writing and celebrating her dh's birthday!
Mercury also celebrated her dp's birthday and completed a mahoosive clothes decluttering project!
Kim82 has also been trying to fit in Flying around work – hope it's going ok!
Yippeeteenage having recovered from a virus, is determined to do more Flying in October!
Foxessocks is having a tough time with two los, battling sleepless nights, and is visiting family today. Hope your headache has cleared! Incidentally, Foxes's dd decided to “assist” with the decluttering process by putting the tv remote control, several fridge magnets and a purse in to her nursery back pack! [Nowt like teaching them young!
]
Stilllivinginazoo, in typically kindly fashion, has been helping her dp with his mother's estate, helping her friend clean her house, helping at choir, helping at the community café, all while nursing two poorly zoolets. She is feeling the effects today and hopefully will be kind to herself tomorrow and rest (hope the gp's appt goes as well as poss). Don't like the sound of that breathlessness/pain [worried] Do take care! 
Octopusarmenvy has woken up full of Flying determination! More power to your elbow!
Celeste has been searching for primary schools (good luck with the decision – tis always a stressful one!) and is Flying high with consistent routines
. She has had a lovely family walk on the beach in Devon
and has supplied us with our new thread motto!
Enjoy your run tonight!
Pontificationcentral has been keeping a ginormous number of plates spinning, including, in addition to work and many other activities, an inordinate amount of dance-class chauffering, fund-raising, all this having taken in a vulnerable teen, and nursed her dog back to health! On top of all of that and more, she is preparing for visitors! Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! 
Caglio having had some much needed "me" time alone in the Smoke, has given herself a strict 9 day deadline in which to make some progress in the house! [I'm with you in spirit Cag - rl has been getting in the way of decluttering here - I need to make signifcant progress in the next third of the month!]
Blueyeshadow has been busy coordinating a collective family Flying effort!
GrendelsAunty has been trying to get used to the Flylady system, and is busy with her los, but has nevertheless managed to blitz the fridge (which inspired me to do the same)!
Fromwestoeast has been very busy working and is reading about missions and deciding what to declutter - which definitely counts as a baby-step in my book (sorry hate the phrase baby-step – so sickly - but you can't avoid it on on Flylady).
Cotswold got pissed in the naughty corner was understandably stressed by ongoing mobile phone woes and td repair saga but has nonetheless managed to do a lot of Flying in her kitchen!

Babblehag is doing a crisis clean for Tuesday - may the force of the Fledglings be with you!
Castle returned to the thread - yay! - and is parenting, teaching, gardening, renovating, looking after animals and visiting her ma and friends and family all at once (whilst pregnant). Respect!
Greymalkin popped in to share her recent news and pick up some frugaleering tips. All the fledglings send their wholehearted support to her and her oh x
MrsK (a fellow back sufferer – hope it's improving) was seen descending in to the under stairs cupboard of Mordor but she has since been spotted nipping out to the cinema with her girls so thankfully we can cancel the search party! (At least I hope I have that sequence of events right ...get confused here with all this thread flipping and scrolling …. [worried emoticon]
)
FencingWire is tackling her paperwork mountain during the month of October as is Whoknowswherethetimegoes [SC looks shifty all of a sudden
]
Summerday11 joined the thread!
Hope you and all other newcomers are finding their way ok!
SC momentarily contemplated swapping offspring with Foxes but decided to stick with her stroppy teen who has in fact gone down with some sort of flu virus which explains some of the stroppiness. She has in usual fashion done as little Flying as humanly possible but managed a quick Friday home bleugh.
