Weekly Flylady Thread 4th January 2010

I am in again. Will try to update my progress before going to bed each night!

Morning all

Looks like another cold one here, school not starting til tomorrow. We only need milk and bread which we can walk into the village for but other than that we shall be staying put!

Welcome BenW hope you enjoy being part of the gang. We have been in a similar situation for the last 3.5 years. To try and combat it all I have a dot2dot system that I employ. The theory is that you clear one area completely and then keep it clean and tidy whilst adding another area, eventually the dots will all join up The main thing to remember is that anything you do is a step forward and better than doing nothing. The support on here is great, nip back to post 1 for all the relevant info to get you started.

Better get dressed and get started round here!

How's the CAB training going, Dusty?

Penny. x

I'm still thinking about it. I think it was jjef who had started training. Not sure how it would fit in when I'm invigilating or if I have the patience for some people as I can have a tendency to want to say 'get a grip' or 'you got yourself into this mess'

Hi All, I've been MIA again, Dh's nan had a bad fall few weeks ago and then had other problems that she hadn't told anyone about that caused the fall! So is now in hospital and has been for a few days now, but its down on the south coast so we went down for a few days and that turned into a week, and we have a 21month ds who was just bored so it was a battle everyday!

Anyway home now waiting to hear today what they plan to do next, possible surgery.

So I'm back in, cant do kitchen today though as dh plans to decorate when I get my backside out of bed (my turn for a layin as I'm back to work tomorrow).

So will catch up properly when I can, will start on another room today.

DS1 deposited at Preschool, it's rising 5s today so DS2 had to come home with me after walking all the way there in the cold (usually DH takes DS1 on Mondays or has DS2 while I do it but he's working) which was not popular! So I let him do some painting when we got home, all cleared up now and he's watching a DVD.

Put a wash on, despite it being 4 degrees! in my utility room... so excuse me if I don't rush back in there to unload the dryer just yet...
Suppose I'd better tackle the cupboard under the sink (I'm scared )
