2 Kiddies in bed only 2 to go, DW on, WM on and my hall....yes hall....is full of washing, i cannot get it dryed quick enough, i think i'll have to get a TD again after Christmas.
Right best try and sort this hoover out.Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.And things go wrong no matter what I do.Now and then it seems that life is just too much.But you've got the love I need to see me through.:j :j0 -
Thanks for the list pigpen - looks like one I can achieve now I'm off work, especially as I'm going to my M&D's for Xmas dinner, so don't need to worry too much about allocated jobs etc. I do however have to go and do some food shopping for the rest of the week though.
Looking forward to a few HHCs this week.

Just popping in to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.
I've not been on Flylady for a good few months and boy can you tell!! The house is looking awful so my aim for Feb (have relatives visiting for 5 weeks in Jan) is to get stuck in again.
Not got too much to do this week as we are going camping for christmas with a load of families and we have split the food shopping so I have my little list.
Anyway sorry to go on, typed more than I meant too!

and that's why it is on tomorrows list!!
... and of course, being good flyladies we'll all have lovely clean ovens anyway, as we do them every week, so this is just a final polish:rolleyes:
If BG do supply fan heaters, they didn't mention it... I guess it boils down to what the guy who's due out between 8am and 12 noon on Tuesday says.... If they do decide they can't fix it before Christmas and offer fan heaters, then I'll be expecting a discount on my electric bill!
They don't... these are supplied by the nat grid if the gas supply fails. Sorry.And Greenbee- I am already dressed up like the Michelin man, though I haven't put on a hat yet. I've already decided I'll put a hot water bottle in DD's bed for her about midnight (she's not due home until about 1am) so there's some warmth there. The dog will be fine at keeping my toes warm.
Your offer of letting me house sit is really quite tempting at the moment....
Veg roasting in oven with a couple of fishcakes I found lurking in the freezer. off to do some veg...0 -
