    Today was my first day on the Flylady thread :D As a reminder: I am starting on level one- with a few extra stuff chucked in where poss!

    Magnificent Monday - Kitchen and dining room
    Level One
    [strike]Clear and wipe worksurfaces[/strike] Done
    [strike]Scrub down the frontf of units and large appliances[/strike]
    Done
    Level one Complete :dance:
    Level Two
    [strike]Wipe and replace small appliances[/strike]
    Done
    [strike]Clean oven and hob[/strike]Done

    Extras
    1. Thoroughly clean the cupboard full of tins!
    Really wanted to do this as this cupboard scares me:eek: And I think it smells funny, even if OH says it's ok :D however, I used up all my multi-purpose solution cleaning everything else, and besides- I think it'll need something a bit tougher!

    Really pleased I got all that done- I moved and cleaned everything. Even washed out the bread bin. I also washed down all the cupboard doors, put some towels in to wash and have cleaned my cloth by soaking it in a bleach solution (something I have never done before!)

    Now, I wonder if BF will notice when he gets home? Probably not:rolleyes: I expect he will be distracted by the sausage casserole and dumplings I'm making for dinner:rotfl:

    Oooh, and also defragmenting the hard drive so tidying my computer too! :D

    Aaargh my lap top keeps cutting out on me! I think it just needs cleaning out with compressed air but Dr Dragon needs to do that for me!
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    My HHC turned into an hour :) Just got the fridge to degunge and maybe some of the extras, I will have a go while I cook tonight's dinner later on! The first day of OH's low fibre diet prior to the procedure. Tonight it is easy, Macaroni Cheese made with white pasta. Not sure what to do for him tomorrow, but I'll find something even if its just an omelette!
    Time to spend some time with my OH and kids :D

    Not got time to read through just yet but must share this

    My purse I lost has reappeared I went into the conservatory and there it was, DS2 who was helping carry stuff in that evening had gone in there straight after we came in for a DVD, must have put it down. £300 in it :o lesson was already learned to stop taking cash purse/too much cash out but saves needing new driving licence etc now too. PHEW!

    Must dash, having a chaos day/evening!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200
    Slinkies target 2018 - another 70lb off (half way to what the NHS says) so far 25lb

    Also did dishes and put a wash on, ran the hoover over LR and straightened cushions/throw etc on couch.

    Thats a relief Lil_me - £300 is a lot to lose!

    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
