Weekly Flylady Thread 28th September 2009

Mrs_Beatson

Hello!!!

No chance of catching up with thread Im afraid...

Hugs for you and yours, if you need them, of course.
Hope all is ok with everyone.

Cant do Master Bedroom today as it is being prepped for decorating tomorrow.Will use list from last week and do any bits ive missed tomorrow and am going to do kids rooms instead. Had to wash DD bedding already as she was sick in her bed this morning , so might as well do the boys too. Im such a rubbish mummy when it comes to sick! the convo went something like...

"oh dear darling dont worry... *gags* ...I'll clear it up ...*gags*... you go wash your face... *gags*... I'll just change your bedclothes *gags*..."

I had to cover the sick with a towel and deal with it like that:rotfl:

Its actually making me gag just talking about it!! UGH!!!

Managing to keep on top of rooms already done this week... kitchen still looks tidy so im pleased with that.. it makes life so much easier when they come around again next week! Im expecting that the kids rooms wont take me the usual 2 hours each this week as I have been on their backs making them pick up EVERY single thing theyve left on the floor!!!


FRODDS you have a PM hun x


Keep going everyone
Welcome to the newbies... this thread just gets bigger by the WEEK... amazing!!!

*"flys" off* ( you see what I did there? ... "flys"... oh never mind:rotfl:)

You do make me chuckle Mrs B hope your DD is ok.

Well that's the pet insurance sorted, I did a compare thing and got the whole works inc. life of illness for £9.25 a month I'm happy with that. Heck I waste more than that at Mcdonalds.

Off upstairs now to make the beds etc etc amen.

:wave: morning everyone

just thought I'd say, i'd like to join in, if you'll have me.

I'll be away from tomorrow I'm away until the weekend, I think, so i would be better off starting next Monday - see I'm already putting things off
I thought if I make a commitment to do it, I can't back out.

So, I just copy & paste the 'to do' list from the first thread each day, then cross off what I've done - that's what you do?

OK,AF is winning so far this morning. Slept late and DD was late for school AGAIN, only 5 mins but the sec. made me sign the late book even though another child went in at the same time and no-one signed her in late ggggrrrr!!

Hope all i well and hugs and vibes to those in need xx

Anyway, refusing to let AF get away with this behaviour, HHI at 10?????

Morning all :wave:

Day off for me today :j:j:j:j:j so I can do loads of flying The place is like a tip and I will have a full house tonight as its DDs 16th birthday today.

Havent had a chance to catch up on the thread.

Quillon - hope the new job is going well.

Mudders - hope DS is better.

Zoe (((hugs))) I cant think of anything to suggest, but we are a clever bunch on here. I'm sure someone will think of something.

AnW'sMum - I think that's a lovely idea about the initials. How long will it take to engrave the headstone?

WM on. Will do the dishes, jump into the shower and then put the next load on. Back soon

Morning all

Zoe - hugs for poor lou, that sounds so painful I hope he got some sleep

Perfect job coming your way vibes for Soappie and Toochoosey's DSD

Mrs B I don't deal with upchuckers, mine have always upchucked when DH has been home, I have no idea what I'd do if he was out but it involves us all moving down to the playhouse until he returned.

Triker I hope you had a good weekend

Toots - broad spectrum ABs don't always work but are often first prescribed so another GP trip could be necessary (but of course if it is a virus no ABs will work)

AnW'sMum well done on the stonemasson visit I hope it turns out just lovely

MissH thanks for the tips and that is not cheating in my book at all!


I'm not feeling great today and have very little GUAG. I need to pop to town so I think I'll do that next and see how I feel afterwards. I might cancel pilates this afternoon if I don't perk up.

toochoosey

ok,, ironing, here I come.............
