    It's still raining here but the snow is melting so I got togged up and took the dog over the shop and paid the paper bill. She hadn't been out for a few days (I'm scared of ice and her legs are rubbish so she tends to fall down anyway let alone on ice). It's still really cold out there.
  • Thanks for that mummy2mygirls! As you can probably tell I am new to the fly lady thread although I have been browsing for a few weeks! :xmastree:
    I like having a clean house but have DS1 6yold and DS2 4yold! The idea of having specific jobs to do each day sounds like a good plan! Going to take LO's for haircut now.

    Sexymouse - I have been to the gym... cardio, weights, abs, stretches... and then I did some emergency shopping... how about you?!

    Obviously I haven't managed any flying yet, I'm barely managing to keep up with work phone calls etc!

    cleaned all the downstairs floors earlier, I come back from the school run to find OH and some bloke fitting a towel warmer/radiator thing in the downstairs loo(it is cold in there!!)I am very grateful but neither had wiped their feet and.......IT IS RAINING OUTSIDE!!!!

    on a lighter note where is the best place for nice/relatively cheap curtains, I have looked in next, marksies, debenhams, dunelm, leekes, rosebys, they do not have the colour I want....cream with a bit of black?
    Thanks..........

    Have you tried Next online? They often have different stuff.

    BHS?? TJ Hughes? John Lewis? .. erm... I don't shop very often...

    Littlewoods?? Freemans etc... catalogues usually allow you to pay as you purchase so you wouldn't need an account.. and don't forget quidco etc...
