Weekly Flylady Thread 8th June 2009

poohbear59

Good afternooon,

Things are settling down here again. I spent almost all day on the phone yesterday sorting out DSs and their problems at uni and at work. It was easier when they were all little.

DS1 was persuaded to stay at uni, hope he is still there today on his placement!

DS2 was being seriously bullied at work and I took an executive decision to ring up his work and talk to someone. He had a meeting yesterday and lots of things have been sorted, hopefully today things have gone a bit easier for him too.

As a result I did no flying at all yesterday, only just had enough time to cook dinner with help. I was on the phone when I realised that I rang DS1s mobile and I had been on for 43 minutes. I dread my phone bill.

My cousin sounded really perky and is thankful for the good thoughts and prayers.

I have been told by DH that tonight is football night here so I am saving our bedroom to be sorted tonight.

I have nothing to hand in but just a couple to collect which I can sort next Wednesday when I MUST go in.. one of the others is asking if she can drop any of mine that are marked at mine on the way home.. mainly because she wants to borrow them!

2 binbags scooped from the girls bedroom floor.. I have now run out of binbags I think.. unless any turn up .. ooh there may be some in my room.. I'll check in a bit.. Children should be off shortly

I need to clean out the bunnies.. binday tomorrow and their smell can go in that.. I'm not having it ponging in my wheelie all week!

Rosepink, I have a history of pre-eclampsia so have to troop up when I get any symptoms, then hang about on blood results, which were fine.

Mudbath

Tia - glad the results were fine. I had pre-exlampsia with my first so they monitored me really closely with my second.

G&B - fantastic news on your exam....well done you!

Hex - i'd love to borrow tiger but sadly Stripes is too fond of cats and they're not fond of her!!!! She keeps getting slashed by our elderly lady! Lol.

Dinner made by DH and he's clearing up! Yeahhh!! xx

Evening ladies :hello:

Well OH has just got the kiddies in the bath. The downstairs is all clean and tidy so i ma now going to have a HHC in bedroom. Once the smells are in bed i shall start the ironing. I would like to do at least half of it as we are shopping tomorrow for holiday clothes but the shopping centre is a nightmare. We have decided to go on holiday (very spontaneous) so have booked Primrose Valley and we go a week on Friday! The kids have no idea so it should be a good suprise! I just need to get organised and make sure its all hidden well from the children.

Right i am going to do the bedroom and help dd with spellings at the same time!
