Weekly Flylady Thread 27th October 2008

Well the twins now have somewhere to sleep. But whilst DD was tidying DS's bedroom for him yesterday she's pulled apart the pump to his ready bed so there is no stopper to it - I've left the pump attached so I'm hoping it won't go down in the night!

while out shopping today i bought 2 footballs for the dog(99p each from sports world instead of 7.99, only 2 per customer), i gave him one and kept the other spare as they dont last long with him, he chews them to bits, anyway, went to get him in earlier and some g*t has stolen it out of the garden, 7 foot railing type locked gates, they must have lifted it over, i know it was only a pound but not the point!!!!!!!!!!!!
rant over, look at the time i'm late for my HHC, i'm going.....now!

rach

julie - try a felt tip pen lid (without an air hole) in place of a stopper! usully if you leave the pump in the air leaks out

Right, HHC, ready steady GO!

I have achieved! So my reward is a glass of wine. :beer: I've been a v. good girl on the alcohol front this week. Instead of heading straight for the drinks cabinet (well, kitchen top!) as soon as I get in, I have waited until I've done something.

My evening list now looks like this:

• [STRIKE]Finish presentation and email off[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Sign contract and scan and email back[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Change cat litter tray[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Empty DW[/STRIKE] I'm actually in shock over this. I think the fairies have been round. It was put on late last night - I didn't empty it this morning before I left for work - but when I checked it was unloaded and two plates put there - I think DiL's been kind!
  
• [STRIKE]Cook dinner (bangers and mash I think)[/STRIKE] Bangers in over, mash boiling up. We'll eat early tonight
• [STRIKE]Do bathroom[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Do 1 wm load[/STRIKE] Just finished so I now need to empty it and drape things over the airer in the kitchen

It's nice when a plan comes together!

Emily That's really good to hear. You must be relieved, you certainly 'sound' more chipper.
