Weekly Flylady Thread 16th February 2009

Pollybear

Well, we've had our tea and I've washed up. Then we watched a programme on photography, followed by Mistresses from Tuesday night. Dishes now put away and cats fed so I'm just going to wash up their stuff and then run a bath and go to bed to read my book. Shifting furniture isn't the best thing for a dodgy back but there's noone else to help so we just have to get on with it Night all.

Toots : Whats this list thing? I'm guessing it was made one of the weeks I wasn't keeping up with the thread How's it work?

I really need to do some NVQ work but I've just spent ages sitting here trying to work out my next OU course since I missed the sign up for the IT course I wanted to do and its not being presented again Looks like I'll be doing a business course next (which should in theory result in a Undergraduate Certificate in Business Studies apparently ).

DD will be home at 5.18pm tomorrow according to ex :rotfl: Well thats what time the train is due in, so I need to meet them at the station which means I need to leave here at about 4.45 just in case a miracle happens and the train gets in early. Then ex can get his train back on time.

I'm going to go and curl up with CSI: NY then bed I think. I'm shattered again :wave:

Using my phone to pop in because then sites are limited and i won't get distracted for too long! I've read a full chapter and answered question 1 ( of 3 large questions) of my first tma in rough . Can't get my bath yet as boys still awake, up and down like yoyos. I'd prefer to wait so not disturbed.
Going to have a bottle of water then do some more.
Triker - your shopping habits sound so much like mine it's scary! Monday we'll start a i spent/wasted in our messages on here, if we don't post for a few day we have to post the ones we missed. Nicki you too. Anyone else joining us?

Soappie. I like trying to fix things myself as much as possible too. Ive plastered, took part of a stone fire place out and put skirting boards on.

Was it hard to plaster? I will replace the tiles in our bathroom and then need to plaster the hall. (Just wasn't sure how to)

Another thing I don't do is car maintenance. Used to on my motorbike years ago but these modern engines have me baffled.
.

I am qualified car mechanic (but haven't worked in the industrie the last ten years), but even I wouldn't touch the new engines. I sort out DH's car (W reg) sometimes with the help of our DS who is 3! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Great to have another motorbike enthusiast here.

Washing up all done from dinner. I have decided I'm now going to take a book I started reading about three weeks ago to bed with me and continue reading it there. I haven't read in bed for an awful long time.

It used to be one of my pleasures.

I think I'll reacquaint myself with it.

Have a good night one and all - sleep well

'Twas in my wild, irresponsible days

I know! Ok, I had to give up my motorbike when I moved to the UK in 2001, as I couldn't afford the insurance. Now I cannot ride one, as neither of the boys would fit on one (they are 3 and 1). :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Off to go to bed too, with my OU books, Still have to catch up, as I am one book behind.....:o

W/e list will hopefully partially done tomorrow.... all depends on the weather. If it's nice, me and the boys will have breakfast on the hills.

Yep I'm in for definite. Should be fairly easy the next week as I have plenty of food in. I'm just trying to sort out a healthy Asda delivery on Mysupermarket to be delivered at some point...I'm going to put it off as long as I can. Its the usual case of budget vs healthier option though. :rolleyes:
