Weekly Flylady Thread 2nd February 2009

greenbee

Welcome domino sue!

All the instructions are on the first post (you've cleverly joined us at the end of the week, so you have a couple of days to get to know us all before you jump in!).

Toots - our meeter & greeter - will be in touch with you to make sure you have all the details you need.

The most important thing is to take it slowly. Start with Level one and some decluttering. Don't expect to get level 3 done every day to begin with (unless you're snowed in next week!)

Well there's no chance of being snowed in here in Cumbria so hopefully I'll get something sorted (after work of course !!).

Thanks for the welcome

mudbath well it will give you something to do on monday putting it straight again!!! :eek: Oh dear that is sad about the alcohol!!:rotfl: :rotfl:
mof77 thats great news:T - hows DD holding up? - do you have a date yet? you realise of course that this extension is going to increase the amount of flying you will have to do:eek: ??? fingers crossed for tomorrow's results.

trip to Mr A was good - was only out of the house 55 mins and I was good apart from carrying too much ....yet again!! will also have to go back as I saw a couple of things on special that I use regularly and also things I didnt manage to carry!

off to send message to our leader with all your fantastic results!!!:D

mof77 - sorry, somehow I missed your posts earlier! That's great news. Fingers crossed for the exam results!

mudbath - very worrying :eek: I'm wondering whether I should have a drink tonight just to make sure I don't go off it by accident

toots - looks like you've had a productive day, but as you've overdone it make sure you rest this evening! And you've got a newbie...

I should if I were you GB, I think Mudders' aversion to alcohol is very worrying, and i think we need to be watchful, just in case it's a disease sweeping through the flylady ranks!!!! In light of my concerns I'm currently decluttering a large glass of red!

thanks greenbee - I have sent 2 pm's to domino sue!

would you belieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeve it! I added an extra bit about the stars and the stupid message system said I was over my quota of characters!!!!!! by 206!!!!! will have to attempt to shorten the welcome without losing the character of it - i have added in how to add a tree, strike out on the lists - I think I should also put in how to defrag as that catches a few people? I am just tooooo chatty!!!!

have decluttered oatcakes and philly with garlic and herbs and it was yummy!!!!

right must go update pigpen!!

Good news about your father Mudbath

I had to go to work tonight, even though hardly anybody was in there today and there wasn't really anything to clean. The main roads are OK but the last bit into work and the car park was dreadful, snow, slush and black ice. I'm staying in now until work on Monday night!

greenbee

SS - just what I was thinking... I've gone off alcohol in the past, and I'm worried that if I go without for too long it'll happen again. It's just a decision as to whether to open a bottle (which I might then have to finish ) or have a G&T instead!

Toots - sounds like you've got some serious editing ahead of you. Or maybe you should start putting together a flylady FAQ which can go on the facebook & yahoo groups?! Like... where to find stardrops... how to clean the WM... how to clean the DW... how to clean the MW... or even create a flylady reference thread... you'd have to create loads of posts and then go back and edit them afterwards... or you could write it up as a post and get Pigpen to cut and paste it each week as post 3?

See... loads of things to help you put off the ebaying

Hi everyone

You have all been very busy today, well done to everyone. Been a busy day at work with a few complainers about the branch not opening. I told them we decided to go sledging instead of coming to work :rotfl:

ooh, good thinking. Another glass of white being decluttered here whilst trying to find an emergency 90th birthday present for my Grandma. I am so rubbish at remembering dates . I did have a list on the old PC but it had chronic something or the other failure and died, and I don't like asking my mum to send me yet another list.

Off to a bulb show for the Alpine Garden Society tomorrow, followed by a visit to B n Q for new skirting boards. 35 going on for 70, thats me .
