Weekly Flylady Thread 13th July 2009

tootifruities

Morning my friends

I am much better today - but had a very bad night after I left here - I did nearly phone an ambulance as I was really struggling with my breathing - I couldnt stop the shaking and shivering which was making my breathing worse but I tried to keep calm and with my machine got my breathing under control - I think the thought of going to A&E was enough to help!!!!!
I slept until 1am and woke up sweating and over-heated - not surprising as I still had my clothes on, an extra fleece blanket and a quilt - but it worked - so i sorted myself out, had a drink and went back to bed - but I have had a restless night and woke up several time - I have cancelled today's outing as I want a quiet day.
I need to pack my bag for hospital and get organised because I am going to go in for treatment asap.

Thanks for you concern - I am back to my 'normal' self today.

right off to make brekkie and a cuppa
will get those stars updated next.
love and hugs

Morning

A belated happy birthday to GSYSEZZ - sorry I missed it yesterday but i'd gone to bed early! Massive hugs xxxxx

Chunky....GORGEOUS picture of your DD....she's so lovely. Hope she had a fabulous time.

My aim this week is to complete no lists......sorry, it's just one of those weeks when it's not happening. Last week of term with lots of concerts etc, trying to fit in extra clients so I can have time off over the holidays, sister over from the states, spotty dog appointments etc = mudbath not a very good flylady.

What I have noticed this week after doing very little except hold stripes (good) paw is that the house disintergrates to chaos very quickly so....over the summer i'm going to s/s everywhere, everyday. I'll then have a big spring clean in September (Autumn clean didn't sound right). This just means i'm not stressing about keeping up when i'd rather be doing daft things with the children and my sister. So, I probably won't be around much but will be thinking of you all and will pop on to make sure you're all behaving!!!

Greenbee - if you need anymore advice email me so i'm sure to get it.

Hugs to everyone and speak very soon and special hugs to toots and LL - i'll be sending healthy, positive vibes to you often xxxxxxxxxx

Pauper1

Well, just over a HHC, but managed to finish the conservatory. Just the rest of the house to go before Friday

What I have done so far today..
emptied and cleaned cat trays and bowls
cleaned windows and panels in conservatory
tidyed and polished conservatory furniture
hoovered the floor and moved non-conservatory stuff into the LR!

I'm going to sit down for a bit now, cos technically I'm ill, but I will do another HHC at 11am to make a start on the kitchen, if anyone wants to join me?

Love to all xx

Snap - I'll be on light flying duties during the summer holidays (ie no wiping of paintwork!) I will however be having a good declutter of each child's room (clothes etc) in turn and sorting out the toys in family and living room whilst playing with DS3. Aim is to have fun and see what is not touched for the whole summer. Unlike Mudbath I will be here everyday to chat :rotfl:

There will be an Autumn (spring) clean here too once they are back in school.

Hoping to achieve the lists for one last time this week - family room done and cloakroom, all wiping done.

Was hoping that the green bin men would arrive so that I could do operation refil but they haven't and I need to go to Mr M now - never mind.

Toots - I hope you get some rest today, you must feel shattered, have a gentle hug x
