computer carp for 'Computer Sean' (who is obviously going to come in during the night with the fairies and move them) and two boxes of total carp for Ebay (the same fairies will photograph and list them)

Not paying enough attention I was wondering where you found fishing games for your computer. Seriously, I guess I though I saw Total Carp among OH's fishing DVDs.
Ignore me:rolleyes:

Pigpen, many thanks for new list, may start tonight and helps that I did the table this weekend. Really need to do kitchen cupboards so I can find loaf tin and make bread.

So here's my slightly adjusted list


Minging Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room
Level One
Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces
Level Two
Sweep and mop floors
Sort & clean fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front, clean out any spills or grots in there!
Wipe dining table.. (clean table cloth if necessary)
Level Three
Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs on way round
Wipe and replace all those small appliances.. kettle, toaster etc
Wipe all the windows in these areas!!
Clean cupboard door fronts and fronts of appliances .. don't forget those kick boards..
[STRIKE] Check those washing machine filters and drawers for ickiness!! Tumble dryer, cooker hood and dishwasher filters need to be done too![/STRIKE] Don't know how and it's OH's job. So will never be done. Can anyone tell me how to find filter on my WM, don't have DW I'm a traditionalist (with a V. small Kitchen)!
Extra Mission : help yourself

1. clean the hob..
2. Wipe down any tiles and shine those taps.. a toothbrush is great for cleaning away the gunk!
3. 29 fling boogie.. GO!
4. pick some flowers
5. Empty the bin.. wash it out.. and make it smell SWEET
6. Sort Kitchen cupboard (pans) give light ones to Mum (weak wrists, I gave her half my Le creusets and she gave them back!!) Find loaf tin!!

I'm in again. No flying tomorrow though because I have to take DH to Heathrow. He's now announced that we have to go via Bedford so he can drop some stuff off at the office - no doubt I'll be sat in the car for hours waiting for him.

Lil_me - have a lovely break. The weather forecast for round here is good for the next week so hope it is the same in your neck of the woods.

Pigpen - hope DS is OK. I'm not looking forward to DS being that age and getting into bother.

Toottifrootti - welcome. Love the name.

RMC - if any of those fairies put in an appearance at your house send them in my direction when you've finished with them.

Heres to a good week.

Tootti it's entirely up to you when and if you post. You even have the option of going into hiding like most of us do at some point.:D

I'm glad it's the kitchen first, it needs a good bottoming

Most machines have a door thing on the front of the machine to access and clean out the filter.. if yours doesn't have one you don't have to do it!!

Goodie Gum Drops - my washing machine is its own flylady!!

Hi flyladies!:hello: and hi to all the newbies!:hello:

I have been unable to get near the pc for teenagers wanting to be on facebook or play games. One has gone to friend's to sleepover, and one sent to bed, so I have grabbed the computer for a while - until guilt overcomes me and I go do the washing up.;)

I have done a bit of flying, and quite a lot of gardening on the allotment - I want to get some seeds in before we go away, also shopping and the usual taxi service...DD has been out lateish for two nights, and I'm completely shattered. I still wake up at the usual 6.30, while she's asleep half the day.

I went over to see Mum yesterday afternoon,with DS1, and my sister was there with her family, having a mini birthday tea as her two children both have birthdays in late July. Mum was very much brighter than she has been for quite a while, which was nice. She really enjoyed having the grandchildren there. I must persuade DS2 and DD to come over again. I know they find it a bit distressing, so I haven't pushed it, but it is so much nicer at the home than at the hospital.

I didn't do the kitchen last Monday, well, not properly, so I'll try to do it tomorrow, after gardening for a friend - the last time I work for her, as I'm giving up all the garden work. I know I'll miss it, but not when it's sleeting and miserable in January!

prettypennies - You move on at 750 posts - I did it a few weeks ago, and was posting loads and loads of short messages to do it!
