Ooh Tete en l'air :T you have done well - all that and (paid, outside the house) work too, I'm impressed.
Who (or what) are you hoping to get tickets for?
Thanks Valli, not that I get much work done while I'm here! And I'm totally wrecked now, time for another coffee I think!
Trying to get tix for We Are Scientists in Middlesbrough in a couple of weeks. I got sent an email from the venue about it but when I've clicked the link from their site there's no option to buy. This makes me think they must be sold out, but then why would they send a mailshot if they didn't need to shift tickets? I'll persevere though, it's not often you get good bands in this neck of the woods (though I'm off to see Super Furry Animals and Clinic for FREE tonight at Stockton Riverside Festival. I don't even care if it's tanking down!)Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0 -
Morning everyone!
Have 2 days worth of list to do today - yesterday and today. Have so far, had breakfast, caught up on the thread, replied to an email from serena, watched some morning TV, and read a couple of emails and some threads on the freebies board.
Hugs to all who need them.
Valli I'm reading "Silent Boy" by Torey Hayden. I've read all of her books, and they are what motivated me to go into teaching.
Well had best get on with the lists. Thankfully my list isn't as long as Tagz list is.
Happy flying everyone,

Morning,
Well I never got anything done yesterday at all except the usual every day stuff of cleaning the kitchen work tops, and the washing.
Dont know how much I will get done today, cos Im off out with SIL, so I will start when I get back this afternoon. Need to do something cos, SIL and BIL are coming to stay tomorrow night.
Are the lists added daily, and do they change every week?

Jackie the lists are added the night before on the first post done by pigpen. She sometimes changes the order of the days, and some of the extra tasks change too.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170

Thanks Sexymouse,
Will check out the list for today, and will make a point of doing level 1 at least (I promise I promise) this afternoon.

Good morning,
I'm new to all this so please bear with me!
How do you fit it all in. My problem is I get distracted eg. if I start tidying up a pile of mags I end up reading them and 2 hours later I am still reading them and then think OMG where has the time gone! So I fear if I start posting on here I will start surfing, checking emails etc.. I've already been on doing this for 45mins.
Questions: How can I save time by having the things to do list always on top or easily accesible. How do I find a new thread, I normally search for flylady - is this correct. Has the weekend list been posted yet.
Right - so far I have made the beds, dropped DS1 (3yrs) to nursery, DS1 (2months) fell asleep in the car, and he is still in his car seat sleeping - so I am now gonna go have some brekky and make a start, once I find todays list!
C U soon!Housework only gets noticed when it's not done.My fake plants died because I did not pretend to water them.Can never keep up with the thread - otherwise I'll never get anything done! But hugs to All :grouphug:XxX0 -
Good morning all - hope you've said 'White Rabbits' for the 1st of the month
No I took it as a good reason to pinch and punch my kids!
Had another lovely morning reading in bed but now must get something done. Kids are all in the garden playing golf - so know that will end in tears. DS3 is much better this morning after his early night.
Chunky you sound cheerful hun, hope you find the path you are looking for
Sarah - no wonder you are shattered. Hope the shingles has peeked
MOJT - great plan for the lists - I must admit I've not even looked at them this week - I've been flying long enough to remember most of what I need to do and certainly long enough to remember Pigpens' lady garden antics and the kinky boots she kept posting pics of:rotfl:
To the shower for me and then I'll hatch a plan for the day.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
Dustykitten _ I hope that you mean that she was posting pictures of her boots :rotfl:January Grocery 11/3740
