I remember the sunday ones and will definitely check tomorrow to see if I get the 50p, would mean that I could withdraw by next weekend if it does Wahoo

Morning Everyone (Although the morning is almost gone!!)
Having another carpy day, I really hate being a female! Why cant we have easy lives like the men! lol Poor OH can't seem to do anything right at the moment, I keep snapping at him for the tiniest things, really need to try and stop myself!! He is feeling better again though, be leaving again tomorrow morning till Wed night so will have the house all to myself this weekend.
I've been looking through the Flylady posts and I'm fascinated at how much they do all in a day!!! I cant do all that in a whole weekend! But after reading it I think I know where I'm going wrong, I start one room and when I'm halfway through I'll go somewhere else, so must learn to finish what I start! lol :rotfl:



So, my little list (wont be so little!!! lol)

• Scratch *10p + the extra 50p went into bonus, I think Butlins are getting wise to us now. TAB another 10p into bonus*
• Clicks *Really need to start doing these again, let them go in the last week, will try and get back on track over weekend*
• OnePoll *Due to mood I haven't done any this morning, if feel up to doing it later I will do but I'm just looking forward to going home and curling into a ball tonight*
• OH is hopefully going to do the dishes and ironing while I'm at work, he's got today off because he'll be driving tomorrow. I have put a few extra's on a little list for him but don't know if he'll do any of them.
• Checked bank *The extra that OH made last week has now gone onto Asda CC as he needed 2 new tyres on his car*

Saturday List


Upstairs. Focus on one room at a time.

• Strip beds
• Sort out floordrobe (I love that word, it's so true!! lol)
• Tidy Master and Kids rooms (Really need to start getting the boys to tidy they're own room!)
• Put WM on, if dry put out on line.
• Hoover bedrooms, landing and stairs.
• Bathroom next, might as well get all of upstairs done hopefully. Clean bath, sink, toilet. Mop floor.
• Scratch's
• Clicks
• Enjoy an hour infront of TV, Gossip Girl at 3pm Missed Wed night as needed an early night after being kept awake by OH

Sunday List
Downstairs turn.


Living Room.

• Sweep/hoover and mop floors.
• Hoover sofa
• Tidy magazines and computer desk

Kitchen/Dining Area

• Do any dishes left over
• Wipe down surfaces
• Wipe down cupboard doors
• Clean cupboards, chuck out anything that is majorly out of date and can't be used
• Clean fridge
• I would like to defrost the freezer and clean that but no idea's on the easiest way to do this as mine is a fridge/freezer so I'm guessing they would both have to be turned off, so any idea's would be great.
• Clean sink
• Tidy, clean and polish dining table.
• Wipe down any window sills
• Dust everywhere

• Clicks and Scratches

I cant think of much else, apart from I'm definitely going to sleep this weekend!!! Just need to make sure I take plenty of breaks or I'll be jiggered for work on Monday! It will keep me busy when in house on own atleast.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.
Sal

So, not everything has been done, but still got today, only problem I have is the headache!! Have taken something so hopefully it will go

I think my female kitten is coming into season, poor lil thing doesn't know what to do with herself and her brother just isn't interested!!! lol Thankfully he's been done already, Mum paid for him, we're just saving money now to get her done. Mum paid because he had started to 'demonstrate' on his sister so she told me to get him in ASAP!!

Hope everyone else is having a good weekend

savingholmes

Hope your headache goes soon. With a list like that you sound like you should be on the fly lady thread! Well done for getting to the withdrawal limit on the scratchcard!

Have a good week! Just put my first load of washing on for the weekend - got at least 4 more to go!

Morning All
Monday again! Only 3 more days and OH will be home :j (Little question in case anyone looks, but what's the difference between 'OH' and 'DH'?? I'm a bit baffled, I'm guessing OH is other half, probably wrong though lol)

Lol saving holmes, I have been looking at that thread all week, but I'm nowhere near ready for all those lists lol!!! Maybe once I've got my house sorted then I'll get started on it lol When I get home from work I'm shattered and never have the energy to do more than cook little meal, eat it, wash up and go to bed, so trying to fit in some 'flying' would never happen




Todays list

• Scratch *10p*
• Clicks *Really need to start doing these again, even if it's only a few a day!!!*
• Get through another nightmare monday at work!
• Ironing when I get home

Bought myself a mini GH yesterday, £30 from Homebase. Put it up in the sun (strange feeling the warmth on my back!! lol) It is now against a wall in case of the winds coming, it also has a bag of compost of bottom shelf to hopefully hold it down as we are expecting gales up here apparently, wouldn't of thought so when looking out of the window! lol Got my strawberries and veg in GH now, really need to get my a*se into gear and re-pot the lettuce's, carrots and pea's!!! Will try and do it while we still have some sunshine, the sun seems to be helping me at the moment (I'm not a sufferer of SAD but I do find the sun helps with my long term problem)

Hope everyone else had a good weekend

OH is 'other half', and DH is darling husband.

bevan840

LOL I doubt if mine will ever get to DH then with the amount he does in house!!!! :rotfl:

Morning Everyone
Hope your all having a good day, there were blue skies when I left this morning, I even opened up my mini greenhouse as I think I might of killed my lettuce's and carrots (oops) My Mum kept telling me to fasten everything down as there are strong winds coming my way, so I kept GH shut till I got home as was worried of the wind blowing them around GH, fortunately for us, it was glorious sunshine all day (unfortunate for the plants) so it is open today and over come the grey clouds!!! :rotfl: typical, but hopefully the extra water and fresh air will get them standing again.

OH home tomorrow night :j:T:j:T:j cant wait, I hate it when he's away.



I'm turning what's left of my lists into one whole list, I didn't get round to anything last night, by the time I got home I had no energy, so had some tea, watched a little TV then went to bed. I've joined the flylady thread savingholmes (what have I let myself in for!!! lol) luckily yesterday was kitchen day which I blitzed over weekend so just needed a quick run over everything with a cloth, which I didn't do *slaps wrist* so hoping to get it done tonight

• Tidy Master and Kids rooms (Really need to start getting the boys to tidy they're own room!)
• Hoover bedrooms, landing and stairs.
• Bathroom next, might as well get all of upstairs done hopefully. Clean bath, sink, toilet. Mop floor.
• Scratch's *3 x mermen again = £1 :j:T*
• Clicks *Hopefully this will get done at some point this week!!*
• Mop LR floors.
• Hoover sofa
• Do any dishes left over
• Complete Kitchen on flylady thread
• Clean cupboards, chuck out anything that is majorly out of date and can't be used
• Clean fridge
• I would like to defrost the freezer and clean that but no idea's on the easiest way to do this as mine is a fridge/freezer so I'm guessing they would both have to be turned off, so any idea's would be great.
• Clean sink
• Wipe down any window sills
• Dust everywhere
• Sort out Wedding photo's for our scrapbook
• Plant up the lettuce's, carrot's and pea's (if the lettuce's and carrots survive that is)

Not such a small list, I now have Tuesday on the flylady thread as well which is living room, hallway and stairs, did living room at weekend so that just needs a quick going over but hallway and stairs definitely need hoovering. The washing on airer needs to be sorted for ironing basket/put away. Also still got all the ironing from weekend to do I will get round to it, it's just finding the time and energy to do it!!

Hope everyone's ok
