I can't remember what my list said or what i've done on it!! Had a lovely day driving my parents round - really nice catching up with them. Dad has, hopefully his last, eye op next week so it was nice to chill out with them.
Living room is now perfect, front room and dining room sorted. Need to s/s the kitchen.
I was thinking of past flyladies earlier. Does anyone here from Michelle or chunky or have I just missed them?

much effing and blinding from DH when PC packed up for second time in a week......
DH works with IT , though not PC's. I on the other hand know my limits - I don't do technology!
As such I have always said that dusting PC is oH's responsibility......
He dusted the fan.......a cloud came out.....it's running very quietly.............:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
Mudbath - Michelle posts on facebook, she seems to be doing well. Haven't seen any posts by Chunky for a while.
Jinky - hugs for you. I seem to spend a tedious amount of time bored at the moment. I even miss the boys when they are not at school, and then they come home and shatter the fantasy.
Today I put the DW on and hoovered the ground floor. Really rather poor attempt at flying but I just CBA. Very excited though because I just ordered the belfast sink for my new kitchen so DH can get on with building the units, and I found somewhere for my tiles that is 40% cheaper for the exact same ones.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
Evening all
Just thought I'd share my dumbness with you all. Someone said on the thread they had put jackets in the aga the other day. It took me till peeling tatties to make real chips for tea that they weren't talking about the kind you wear to keep you warm and dry.
I'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged0 -

llell welldone on doing your grotty cupboard
Hugs Boodle
Well done to HRH Princess Piper on getting her story award
Sorry about the bus nightmare Summer, that’s what annoys me about public transport, it’s so unreliable
Hugs Jinky
I'm really tired tonight and really can't be bothered to do anything. Got to get the washing out of the machine but apart from that I don't think I'm going to do anything else today. I did want to get the LR tidied up, but I'm pleased as the kitchen still looks tidy and so does the bedroom."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."

Oh that is me too! I've never missed the kids when they are at school before but I do now, until they come home of course.
Been to cricket awards and two very happy lads
DS2 Batsman of the year U13
DS3 Player of the year U10 (not bad when you're 7!)
DS1 got £50 for his work experience so he is well pleased (especially as he over slept and was late this morning - another lesson learnt)The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
