I know I've said this before, but new flybabies do not try and play catch up. If you haven't done the day, then take it off your post. You are just beginning, and so concentrate on the one day at a time!! Do Level One, and if that went okay, then go for Level Two. Try adding one declutter mission to that. The room will come round again next week, and every week that you are on here it will get better, I promise. Regular flyladies can skip this bit - my main bedroom was a complete tip, so awful that I couldn't even decide where to start. I just spent half an hour on the main bedroom day each week. It took a year before the room was fit to be redecorated, and have wardrobes fitted, but now it's a doddle to clean.
I think the key is to have a clear idea of what a room is to be used for, remove everything that doesn't meet that criterion, and then fit the right storage for the things you need in there. Have I achieved that yet? No of course I haven't! I have a teenage DD who can buy stuff faster than I can declutter it!!Penelope_Penguin wrote: »How exciting - do tell who she is

Have had a crap day, am never going to asda again with 2 kids, fed up of old people poking their beaks in my business , although some were lovely and cooed over my dinky cute daughter which annoyed my son and made him play up more:mad: Online shop next week i think, plus i got so wet i had to get changed when i got home, where has the summer gone?
On the plus side I bought a size 14 top, was an 18 last summer so was very chuffed bout that.
Am going to try and catch up now, hope everyone been ok, hugs to all if not.

back for some more fred
rosepink - glad you enjoyed your morning playing bubbles
siannielaz - sorry about the exam, can you take a resit
lilysue - just wanted to say Hi to my 'neighbour', we still need to try and sort a date for a meet with vivw (actually I havent seen her post for several days now)
lilme - sounds like you could do with a hug honey
Mrs Beatson - you're lucky it only takes 2 - 3 hours to do your childrens rooms, it would take me 2 - 3 weeks to do littlemeisters (and I'm not kidding)
vanilla - sounds like you need some positive vibes too, you have a lot to deal with especially with R being so young too
mummyof5 - interesting post you did there
cha97michelle - repeat after me - 'I am not rubbish' several times and remember Dr has signed you off work as ill, so dont worry about doing anything.
boddy - bet you're looking forward to your week off, doing anything special?
Valli - 'No arthritis vibes' for you
Natty68 - hugs for you too
Dusty - does your hubbie look good in a duvet then :rotfl:
toots - OH has to go into work on Friday to sort out a return date & collect the new uniform, apparently he has to work with another para for 3 months so means he has to come off the Rapid Response Car (and his rota will change so where I'd arranged to be off in the hols when he was working it wont e like that now :mad:). The quote for the gardens sounds really cheap go for it
pigpen - thanx for an easy day tomorrow too - I was in bathroom earlier and thought how I'd managed to keep on top of it. I was thinking that maybe toots and soappie havent been doing as many stars as we dont seem to have had you cracking your whip or chucking your fluffy mules as much lately. I think you need to take control again here and rule your domain with your iron rod :rotfl:
Right as i'm sitting here falling asleep at the screen I better toddle off to bed, but at least I can with the knowledge that I'm p to date with you guys.
See you all tomorrow

Night Kaz...hope you get a good night's sleep and glad he's in gainful employment.
Maybe worth checking (when the dust settles) if there's a lapse time on his final warning or if it will stand whilever he continues to work there IYSWIM.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
