Weekly Flylady Thread 4th August 2008

mumofjusttwo

mumoffour77. Please don't looka t your list and see that you won't be able to do it able. Just see what you have been ab;e to do. A better way to feel good about yourself. I think that most of us will never finish a list of things we want to get done for whatever reason.

Welcome to the thread.

On my dinner break before heading out to work in a bit, just made sarnies to scoff and I really need to get the kettle on, little old lady I went to this morning made me one but it's not very nice Bless her lol.

Forgot to mention in my last post, welcome new people :hello: there's loads of you :j

Dusty Hiyaaaaaaa yay a fellow BB fan, uhm not sure Rex's GF should be in there at all tbh, she seems ok-ish but far too shallow for my liking and she doesn't seem too keen on Rex does she- her body language when he's huggng/kissing her isn't too good :eek:

Just brought some washing round from OH's (my machine finally died a death and haven't purchased a new one yet) so I'm just umming and arring whether to hang it out or not, it's not looking too clever.

mumoffour what are you doing?????
You can't do all that in one day, and nor should you try!!!!! Nor should you feel bad for not being able to do it!!! One day at a time, follow pigpen's lists every day, add your own extras if you like... but jeez lady, you'll kill yourself going on like that!!!!

Big welcome BTW!!!!!!:D

tag - I might have to hijack some of your dailies, thinking about it now I have done some of them alrady, must list them to make my self feel better:
tidied and swiped bathroom while ds1 was in the bath.
decluttered living room, and hotspot on top of TD
recycled
emptied TD
emptied WM and transferrred to TD
reloaded WM

By all means. Some of them are duplicated with the main thread depending on which day we are on IYSWIM. I don't always get round to doing them all each day. But it just helps to keep on top of things.

pigpen - if I recall correctly you have 6 children and still have your house in order, how do you keep them all occupied and budget so effectively?

my house is a pit, I spend every penny that comes in the house.. and I have 8 children

Daily (I didn't really 'get' this last week)

[strike]Peg out washing [/strike](using all yellow pegs, naturally;) )
[strike]Remove detergent drawer to dry it[/strike] (new washer - my last washer ended up gross in this area so I am not going to let this happen again). And I washed it to clear conditioner build up
[strike]S & S bathroom [/strike]- recharge toothbrush if necessary

Monday Melee - Kitchen and Dining Room
Level One
Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces
Clear 1 window sill
Level Two
Sweep and mop floors
[strike]
Scrub out the sticky fridge!
[/strike]Wipe dining table.. (clean table cloth if necessary)
Level Three
Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs (are cobwebs still there LOL;) ) on way round
Wipe and replace all those small appliances.. kettle, toaster etc
Clean cupboard door fronts and fronts of appliances .. don't forget those kick boards..
[strike]
Clean out your mankiest kitchen cupboard. Can't decide - under sink still looks fab! Might do pan cupboard (it's a double! Aargh)
[/strike]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. Sort out bank account (ahem! hangs head in shame:o )
4. Added job - return refund cheque to Broadband company who wrote to me saying they would refund me and have made cheque payable to exH who left 4 years ago -this is not the 50s - women can have their own bank accounts now.
5. Write stiff letter to Broadband company informing them of their carp customer servicies system and telling them how they SHOULD behave with customers. Believe it or not I write a GOOD complaints letter!

Trouble is with kitchen - I think you need to do the level 3s before the level 1s. The last thing I will do is mop the floor.

I will, however, probably regret this as DD has announced she wants to make cheats Banoffi (sp?) pie. She'll have to tear herself away from the TV 1st :rotfl:

Morning all
The weatherman said today would be the best day of the week, and then it chucked it down for the next two hours.......I got the washing back in and respun it and I've just hung it out again, even though it still looks a bit dodgy out there.

Had the same weather problem here today as well. I've now got 3 loads of washing I've got to try and get dried some how. Fingers crossed the sun makes a belated appearance again.:rolleyes:

The time to worry about pegs will be when Pigpen changes her name to Pegpen and starts to feature them in post No. 1!;)
The motivation - support - and laughter generated by this site has been brill! I'd like to think, in my own humble way, I've made a few of you laugh too.:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I was thinking of.. PigPeg actually!

It's a beautiful sunny day here in Derbyshire!

So Pigpen - how many different colours?
