    Have also decluttered the table and pushed all of DH's stuff that's on it to the back of the table, so half of it is now clear. I've done some more sorting out in the kitchen too. How did you get on Sammiell?

    Am off for a nap now.

    I have a question about the oven. So far since I joined the flylady I haven't been cleaning it because I would have to lie down to do so. Last week DH had a big spillage in there and it really needs cleaning. Any tips or ideas on how to make it easier? The oven is so low down that I would have to lie on my belly to clean in there! Does anyone else have this problem? Oh for an oven at eye level!

  • Half time (ish) update. Not a great deal of kitchen sorted, but I've done the living room as far as I can (just need to hoover now baby is awake!) and my Mum attacked the bathroom for me. (Yay Mum :j)

    Will have a blitz on the rest of the kitchen this evening I think, seeing as I'm out for the majority of the rest of the week.

    :rotfl:thanks crafty, good job you're keeping an eye on me, it didn't occurr to me to put it on a list, it may get done now :D

    Maybe...

    ...I'll do it later...

    ....No I'll DO IT NOW!

    Shall I? :D

    Finished work - hurray! just a few bits on the list left to do, plus one more :p

    All the very best for your Dad mudders x
    Rosepink I'd just spray it with some kitchen cleaner and leave it for an hour or so, wipe it off with hot water and repeat till it's gone/if necessary.

    I'm back from the hospital. It was all a bit of a nightmare - I had to wait over an hour and then she had trouble getting the blood out and ended up hurting me a bit :(. Shook me up a bit so I took myself for a coffee and cake, had a little cry whilst I was there. Not sure what's wrong with me at the moment; everything seems to really get to me! I guess there's a fair bit going on with my issues at work, DH's exams looming etc. Not a patch on what a lot of you are dealing with I know!

    Did my top up shop in the Sainsburys near the hospital rather than the small local one, need to make a spag bol later for tomorrow night. I chatted to my boss (the nice one not the nightmare one) and decided to take the afternoon off as TOIL as I worked a lot extra last week, so I don't have to think about work now til tomorrow. I forgot to go to the Drs to get my scan appointment letter whilst I was out, might nip out later and do it.

    At the moment I have a mug soaking with bleach and hot water in - my fave mug is the only stained one and it will have to go soon if it doesn't come clean, and the WM is on! I'll do the kitchen when I've got the spag bol on.

    mudbath - sight saving vibes for your dad
    emily - hope the baby comes soon, you must be on tenterhooks!
