    Good evening all,

    hope everyone has had a good day. I read back to page 12, but had to give up, I'm afraid. Sorry if I've missed your news and hugs as needed.
    I've had a go at my list, but still managed to avoid putting all the clean clothes away. Here's what I managed to do:

    Monday ~ Master Bedroom/study
    Level One
    Strip the bedding get it washed dried and the bed remade! (yesterday)


    make lunch x2
    research/order air mattress for next weekend - decided to look for old campbed in the loft instead
    WM - did one load
    DW x1
    dry clothes
    tell DS1 that last day for washing clothes he wants to take is Wednesday morning (must keep an eye on DS2's clothes, too)
    check bank balance
    listen to DS2 read
    play Maths game with DS2
    cook tea
    tidy kitchen after tea
    check DS1's mobile account
    make smoothie for kids

    Not bad, really, but I've got to call it a day now. Books to mark. I'll post tomorrow's list later.

    Just trying to do my stats assignment which i was supposed to do over the weekend but my little monkey clearly had other ideas so desperately trying to finish it tonight! Done all but the last bit of the last question and havent written it up neatly. Will finish it off tomorrow morning.

    Love and hugs to everyone:A

    I've just done an online shop, the cupboards are almost bare. Ds2 keeps walking around saying what can i eat , everytime he asks if we have something it's no bless him. He grazes all day and there's no snacky things or fruit left. I did make biscuits today and there's banana cake in the tin but he wants fruit, nuts or crisps:rolleyes:. Ds1 will just happily eat the biscuits. I'm going to the market tomorrow so they'll be plenty of fruit then.

    Oh I know I said I was going to bed, and I am, but first I wanted to say a very big

    THANK YOU!

    to all you lovely flyladies and especially Toots, Pigpen and Soapie because I can honestly say without the motivation from this thread I would never have tackled the housework the way I have been doing over the last couple of weeks. It really is starting to make a difference and I think this weekend will be the first time in ages that can have my friends to stay and not be too worried about the state of the house! I am moving from CHAOS to CHASOS (can have someone over to stay)!

    Thanks Jinky.

    And just to say Hello to any newbies from the great age of a two-and-a-bit week old flylady!

    Summermoon I suffer from depression too. Don't be too hard on yourself and just do what you can when you can. It's the only way.

    Right, I am absolutely, definitely going to bed now!
