    hi - thanks to Sammy on the DFW daily chat thread, I've had my conscience pricked to start flylady-ing as she has been taunting us all week with the list of things she is planning to do (and wearing us all out just reading it!)

    So, I think I'm going to give it a go from tomorrow. My house is generally 'tidy' but it's a real 'don't look in the oven' kind of place!

    Does the list change each Monday or will it be the same one as last Monday? I'm going to start gentle with Level 1 - even that will be an achievement with 2 jobs on the go as well.

    Soappie - I''m also in Poole and your Springer looks just like my boy!
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! There are maggots in my wheelie bin! _pale_

    we missed the bin lorry on Wed as it arrived at 9am when it's usually 1pm, so it's not due picked up for another 2 weeks!

    They are falling out round about it! I'm creeped out now and won't step out the back! Gross!! :mad:

    Poor you Tia I hate maggots, but I'd hate knowing they were there more! Get your stardrops spray bottle and give 'em a lovely shower!!! :eek:

    Oh I hate the maggoty things. Same happened to me the other week. they stink to high heaven as well.

    No way you can stop it though in this weather. Only needs 1 fly and you've had it.

    Hi Burlesque - I'm not actually in Poole, but I'm not far away. My springer's a girl - there's quite a few look-a-likes in these 'ere parts!

    The list changes each week. Pigpen will start a new one soon, I'm sure.

    I'm definitely going to give it a go. I already OS as much as I can, I cook from scratch every day and i've just popped a big batch of Twink's hobnobs in the oven - yum! I just need to get around to being a cleaning goddess as well! :rotfl:

    He's a sweetie Burlesque! And, as you say, looks quite like my little girl. Though sure as I am they would make a lovely couple - she's a bit too old now - she's 8.

    Tonight anyone? (after 6th sense!)

    Is that on tonight? :eek::eek::eek: I never managed to watch it. I saw up to the bit where the boy walked into the kitchen and found all the drawers and cupboards open and that was it for me :eek:. I must be really pathetic :o. The Others was really scary too (but I did manage to finish watching it :cool:)
