Weekly Flylady Thread 13th July 2009

Jules We're still in the midst of plastering so everything is upside down, still loads to do but did what was most prominent/urgent. the cat is like having another baby except worse, at least you can stick a baby in a pram and if I'd known you were making a cooked brekkie I'd have jumped on my magic broom and joined you *tummy rumbles*

Munching on a cereal bar now, not quite the same then I'm gonna see what else I can potter about with until littley arrives (sleepover last night) and DD1 comes @ 10.

Sounds like a good time was had by all soappie.

Kaz she's been fed but it just gives her more energy, I've noticed she tears around like a mad thing till mid afternoon then sleeps the rest of the day up until 10pm then is ready for more mischief lol

Soappie or anyone else - how do I know when my gammon's cooked? It doesn't particularly change colour, the juices are clear anyway - I'm stuck!

Morning all,

So far this morning i have Fed & watered us and the bunnys and watered the indoor plants. I'm going to do my dailies then get stuck into the Dining room. It's not too bad but i need to move the furniture so i can give the floor a good clean. It just tends to get a S & S usually. I will try and get my weekly challenges done today as i've got 5 more things waiting for next wekk and i don't want to be carrying stuff over.:rolleyes:

Morning All

Right I have at last found my squeakend list

• HHC kitchen x 2 Sunday
  
• HHDeclutter LR - Sunday
  
• open another 10 items of post - fild/shred or bin as appropriate. x 1 - did one yesterday
  
• Strip and make my bed
• Put up another rail in my bedroom to take excess clothes (to be sorted later to ebay)
• WM loads x 4 - 1 load done
  
• fold and put clean washing away
• Persaude DS to complete UCAS application for UNI - you think the lazy toad would want to move away and therefore would be eager to do this!!:rolleyes:
• clean window sill and wall where cat places her dainty but very muddy feet
• clear out old fridge (part of fridge freezer) as DS tells me that it smells like some thing died in there some time ago!! - yuk - not looking foreward to this one.
• Find info for tax credit return - ready for extra 5 list for next week.
• Order tablets from America - must do this today as they take at least a week to arrive.....

My goodness me that still lots to do and I thought I had done loads yesterday - infact i was knackered and then couldn't sleep until stupid o'clock....

Best get started then - Anyone for a HHC at 10

JulieJ - you can go on the time by weight method. What temp are you cooking at and how heavy is it? As a double check, you could stick a skewer through to the middle and if it's sort of firm but gives way, it should be done. Do you have a meat thermometer?

hollyh

I'll join you Me, i've been sat here since i last posted doing nothing.

juliejim

Soappie - it's2.1kg but I simmered it for an hour first to make sure it wasn't salty and it's in the oven gas 4-5. Does that help any?

I'm with you Carlsberg... the girls have gone now and I have just been chatting to DS's mate - who has given me the lowdown about his dad, stepmum, mum and life. I too would rather have them here TBH and DS has said he wasn't expecting me to be like I am with girls he brings...I am just matey with them - not least because I don't want them to skulk and be secretive...and Ds's mate says he would rather bring his GF here actually so I suppose I am a cool mum then.
Not quite grown up yet - they've got the lego out now...

I love it.... :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: snogging to lego! Marvellous!!! :T

Morning.... :hello:

Thanks Frodders I really love my room.

I'm sitting here with the children watching Forset Gump. I love this film so much. It makes me blub.

Today we're going to my lovely Dad's for lunch.... :drool:

Hope everyone's well and happy today!

Morning everyone. Have not long been up. Im not sure what I plan to do today. Im going to see mum then will do a flying session when I come back. DD rang me last night. She thinks she has swine flu. So I checked her symptoms and she does have a few. Suggested she take some paracetomol and fluids. Will see what she is like today. It may be that its not swine flu and something that happens with her now and again.

embb The actress is in a Yorkshire soap and she is from this area. Her friend was performing in one of the bands. I wasnt surprised to see her as she is often at events in the area.

Soappie Sounds like you had a good time.
