Weekly Flylady Thread 16th February 2009

JayJay14

I have S&S the kitchen, given the hob a good scrub, swept and mopped the floor done 1 load in the WM and TD'd the washing I did last night.

OH will be going into town soon to pick up DD & BF as they are dog sitting for us tonight. (off to a family party in Grimsby - haven't been there for about 25 years, hope it's changed:D )

Will now go and change the bedding and get them in the WM before lunch and I suppose I'll have to think about packing - staying in a hotel tonight as can't be ar**d to drive home.

I think I've made quite a good start to my week off. Lets see if I can keep it up:rotfl:

Toots, I think that's a wonderful idea - after all Greenbee, your home will be so shiny once you've done your extra bits and you will feel very proud that you have done it all and achieved your star with effort, not by default... :j

No weekend list for me this week - have tidied everywhere this morning and I have ironing to do, but am going to work on my extras list today and get that down... fed up with seeing the same stuff there week after week - plus am going to go out and get a pashmina too (free with telegraph today apparently...) so that will be a nice little drive out with hubby somewhere and some lunch too I think...

Happy Saturday Flyladies and gentlemen! (Are there any fly-gent's that aren't OH's helping?)

I'm going to try and do as much of the weekend list as possible, but I am most excited about clearing the boot of my car - it's been FULL of stuff for charity for about 6 months, but I am actually going in to town today so I WILL DROP IT OFF at a charity shop!

Thanks Fly-Flo - I'm back in control again. Just need some decent sunshine I think.

Yep, I think we all need some sunshine - roll on spring...
back door open this morning and it's a lovely blue sky today - even got a lovely white plane streak going across - haven't noticed one of those for ages coz it's been so grey and dismall... was going to do list but now deciding to do garden tidy so I can get some vitamin D...

The floor looks wonderful by the way - kickboards and everything... WELL DONE! :T :T :T

Morning ladies - well the freecycler never turned up today either so I've left a message on her phone to tell her that I'll be offering to someone else now as that is the second day she hasn't collected. I've sent an email to the other person who was interested to give me a call if they still want them, but I think I may put it on the message board as a re-offer due to non collection as greenbee suggested.

Having problems with our gas meter readings at the moment as the conversion from cubic feet (our gas meter reads in this) seems to be much higher than we thought - OH is on the phone to consumer focus people to check this out.
fernliebee - hope you have a nice day with all the other mummies and babies.

Better find this list for the weekend then. OH has done one of his tasks from next week's list as my sister was home when we went to dinner yesterday and she's decided she'd like the foodprocessor instead of us freecycling it.
