Morning all, welcome all new to the thread and (((hugs)))) to all who need one.

Monday is usually a long day with staff meeting running late, but today was an early finish for me as both HOD and KS3 coordinator are off sick. I walked home so was able to have HHE. After LO’s bed time I sorted the kitchen and its on its way to level 3. Everything’s clean dishes, work surface, hob, floor, appliances, units. Tomorrow I will sort the dining room ss the kitchen and hopefully get a star.

mOZzy unfortunately they wouldn’t do anything for socially annoying reasons. If he didn’t need grommets they wouldn’t have taken the adenoids out no matter how disgusting the constant runny nose was nor how many horrible names he may have been called because of it. So unless there is a medical reason the snoring stays.

Rosepink it’s difficult to leave them with anyone as neither of them sleeps through the night and we don’t have any family nearby that we can impose upon. If there is a crisis we have a few friends who will be happy to have them. Like when I went in hospital to have DD my KS3 coord kept DS but he kept her awake with his snoring and wouldn’t settle when he work in the night until she called DH and he reassured him. She had him when I was trying to sleep train (around 9m) and he screamed all night and climbed out of the cot she didn’t offer again. She said she’d have him when he’s sleeping better, still waiting…

Toots. Hope you are feeling better. I think its sleep apnoea too, we even went into hos for a sleep study one night but his blood ox was high 90’s so they are not concerned. I had hoped that it would be all over once the adenoids came out but alas no joy. He has large tonsils at the mo so that may be contributing to it, I don’t know. They wouldn’t take them out unless he has frequent tonsillitis. We see the consultant end of July so will know more then I guess. The sleep deprivation was horrible for the first couple of years but now I guess I have adjusted. Probably like once you pass the wall on a marathon.

Im off to bed now. DS goes back to nursery in the morning so it’ll be a mad rush until we get back into routine. DH is off tom night so I will try for an early bed and have him deal with any waking up.

How do we know what to do today? It used to be added to the original post - is this still the way it works?

I'm hooked again and need to be told what rooms I'm sorting out today :cool:

I think we're just waiting for the update...I've been up with the baby since 6am...I have stripped the bed and cot for something to do but my motivation is slipping fast! I hope today is Master bedroom as I already started:D

Morning all

Slept rubbish due to the pain in my ankle, very sore to walk on too. I've warned my boss that I will need to sit down this afternoon so hopefully I'll still be able to go in. At least the pain is distracting me a bit from my visit to the dentist later this morning.

Time to feed the mogs and wake the kids, might need DS1 to walk DS3 to school.

you could either decide on a room yourself - it will come around one day (if not today) and THEN you can cross it all off straight away.
or decide on jobs here and there and cross it all off whenever it comes around.

No! Cannot make decisions for myself *in a robot voice*.

I will just have to assume it's my day off if there is nothing on the front page...mind you, it's been my day off for the last month as far as flylady is concerned:eek:
