Weekly Flylady Thread 13th April 2009

iriedaughter

I am not caught up with the thread so (((Hugs))) to those who need it and welcome to all new to the thread.

Not as much flying as last week as I have been out 2 days geocaching but downstairs is still some what presentable.

Wow! Its great to see other cachers here. Glad you had a good time mOZzy its great exercise. On Wednesday I went caching with two other geocachers and did a circular walk with 14 caches (about 5 miles) then went on to do a total of 25 for the day. A personal best for me. We met and chatted to a visiting geocacher from Germany and ran into other local cacher all out enjoying the lovely sunshine. It did me good to just leave everything behind (left LOs with DH) and have a break from all the work. Today I went out geocaching again with my usual caching pal and took LOs. DS loved it and got a chance to walk a dog for the first time as we bumped into another local cacher and his westie on the hunt. We did 3 new ones as my friend needed 3 to get to 999 so that she could fit a special one in for her 1000th before the end of the Easter hols. She is obsessed, we are highly addicted. Dusty it is a cheap way the see the best sights when on hol. Do you still cache?

I got more washing dried in the sun and now have an XXL ironing heap. Tom night after LOs are in bed will be dedicated to ironing then any left back will be put away. Tonight I hope to tidy downstairs and sort washing before bed.

JillD that sounds like a very good plan.

Toots hope you are feeling ok. I have lost track of which is the feel bad week. thanks for the reminder about getting ready befor the last min. I have been procrastinating in the name of distressing. I will dedicate tom to making a start.

TAG

Oh am I first up then this morning? I actually managed 4 hours sleep so not too bad.:j I stayed up til 1.30am. My thinking being that if I do only get a few hours at least I can get up when I wake up IYSWIM.

Morning all,

I'm up showered and dressed, i think i might go and have breakfast in peace before Ds2 wakes up. I can't do much off my list until he does wake. After i drop him off at nursery i'm going to get the bed and have my hair cut. I haven't had it cut for about a year:o and it's really long i'm getting it cut shoulder length.

Well done on getting 4 hours sleep Tag. I hope you don't get too soaked.

Morning everyone.
Toots :wave: you're an inspiration!!!! one more this week, then a break for a few days. WTG chick. :T

We had a lovely day yesterday, busy, but lovely. We took DD3 for her eye test. The drops, as anticipated, were dreadful. But we did it. SHe was very good for the optician, and she's had her prescription reduced!! :j:j Fantastic!!!

Then we met my Dad and Stepmum for lunch at wagamama, :drool: it was delicious! They picked up the tab too, even better!!!

We bought half of M&S for DD2 who had no clothes that fitted! But, we've got to take them back for bigger sizes today :rolleyes:

Rant On:
Honestly, I'm not sure who their clothes are designed for, but my DD3 is skinny skinny skinny, and M&S clothes in her age are too small all over. :rolleyes: It just makes me think that they are perpetuating the myth that women should be tiny! DD2 was really conscious that the clothes age 9 (which she is) are way too small, and we're going to need age 11 for her. She sat saying "am I fat Mummy?" :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: (she isn't! But now doesn't believe me, because if she wasn't 'fat' she'd fit into her age group - wouldn't she!! :mad::mad:) GGGRRRRRRR it really annoys me.
Rant Off

Then I relaxed DD1's hair... OMG, that took nerves of steel. I've never used relaxer before, but it's come out really well, and she's pleased *phew*

Today, we're going to drop DD2&3 to playscheme, while DD1 and I will go and change DD2's clothes.

Monsters-v-Aliens... was it Rose that asked? It was really good. Lots of fun, and lots of laughs. Good Dreamworks stuff.

Jill really glad to hear you sounding more positive. Just be foul to em all, works for me. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: The nicer and more accommodating I am to my children, the worse they are. The more I try to appease their food requirements, they narrower and more restricted their requirements get. :mad: So I try really hard not to get into that with them. It doesn't work all the time, and I have to kick off and pull em back into line, but that works well, and they are happier when they're not in control of everything.

Right, cracking on. See you all later. :wave:
