Weekly Flylady Thread 7th July 2008

Hi everyone
Got to catch up on the thread as my computer went mad yesterday and wouldn't connect to the internet.
Still what with that and the dreadful weather I cleaned the whole house so no cleaning for me today.
I've already been to town to get the shopping and I'm just off to the hospital to see what they are going to do about my dodgy knee.
Hope everyone is having a good day.
I'll catch up later

Morning all (or is it afternoon now )

Busy busy morning but house looks like a pit:mad: . DD2 managed to loose one of her trainers whilst I was away and despite me taking their bedroom to bits, looking in the garden, the washing basket and every other stupid place I could think of no sign of it . So dropped DD1 at school, dashed home and drove to Ely tesco (no trainers in little sizes). Got a bit of shopping whilst there and then into Ely itself. Managed to get her a pair of FiFi ones from woolies. Stuck behind lorries, tractors and looks like a fire just off out High Street so skirted round the town.

DD2 now eating lunch as will drop her at nursery this pm. She needed the trainers as they are having a PE session in the big school.

So when I get back I need to:-

S & S bathroom
S & S Lounge
Hoover through
Mop Floors (didnt get round to it yesterday)
Make pasta sauce for tea
Put BM on for rolls
Blow - forgot eggs and lemons - Pop to Somerfield (need to make lemon drizzle cake for summer fete tomorrow)
Attack kitchen
Mow front lawn (if its dried out enough)

I also phoned Dads insurance company and explained the situation. They have changed policy over to Mums name (although she only has a provisional license ) and it means with the cover note they issue I will be ok to drive it - phew! thought we was gonna be stuck up a mountain for a month.

Right I need a coffee. Best get little un in shorts and off to Nursery first though.

G N B - how scarey! I dont think I would have been able to get back to sleep.

Soappie - Glad the kidneys appear to be on the mend.

Hugs to everyone else (not had chance to read through properly yet)

BM on, did a HHG but it looks like its going to chuck it down any minute :rolleyes: First wash load done, and sorted into "TD" "Rewash" (aka tomoto stains not come out even though I used Daz & Oxiclean :rolleyes:) "maiden", everything is on the maiden for now while I do the rest of the washing. Once its all done I'll sling the TDable stuff in with the clean dry towels for a bit and I'll finish the ironing tonight when I get back from my mums

Lunch had - now to settle down with my text book for 30 mins or so. Can't concentrate for more than that :rolleyes: Then I'll wash the dishes or watch something my brother has said I need to watch on Youtube

What am I meant to be doing? I am just sitting here mulling, which is doing no-one any good. Pull yourself together woman.

Have removed all the kids junk from lounge so just need to dust and hoover. Maybe a HHC will give me a kick up the bum, followed by a HHI. Must get a new suitcase this weekend so I can start packing stuff away, not much need for all the shorts and t-shirts here at the moment:rolleyes: .

I suddenly feel exhausted. Coffee it is then.

Annelouise - DD1 has only had nits once and that was bad enough. Yucky horrid things and those nit combs are useless, resorted to using my finger nails in the end (shudder, shudder):eek: . Where abouts in Spain are you? I will fly into Malaga but Mum n Dads place is about an hour in-land up in the moutains near Casarabonela.

Back from the pub.. and all I had was hot chocolate.. honest.. saving myself I am!

I've conned my friend into coming out tomorrow night.. she has £5.. but for her that is MORE than enough!! lol I can't get in touch with my other friend who wanted to come out on Saturday.. maybe I'll give her a call later for a natter and a time.. maybe.

Off to more important things.. BED!!..

Hubby is on the plane.. should be landing shortly.. his is the next plane in to land according to the website..

Finally got DS2 to sleep a couple of hours ago, he's still snoring his head off, bless him. Have oblitorated almost all my list! Also WM twice, put a load from yesterday away, DW emptied and refilled. Will have to wait until DS1 home before I vacuum.

Time for coffee, I think. Gunsandbanjos - could I pinch a small slice of that fudge cake to go with it?
