    Hi all well after a disastrous attempt for the couple of weeks at flyladying i'm back on track this i hope. On Saturday my landlady agreed to pay for the materials for a new kitchen yay!:money: so the house is going to be a wreck , nothing new there then:p.

    So my list for today:-
    Monday~ Living room/family room or other reception room!
    Level One
    Declutter and vacuum the floors!
    Clean out a sideboard/bookcase/other storage
    Level Two
    Vacuum under furniture you can safely move!
    Dust and deweb.. Make sure smoke alarms are still in good order
    Clean the sofas.. vacuum under/between/backs cushions.. turn them over for even wear if possible.
    Level Three
    Sort out magazine racks/piles of newspapers etc.. can any be recycled?
    Clear and wipe window sill.. do not put back the clutter!
    binbag dance
    Extras
    1. Finish/do a small DIY job
    2. Wash any soft furnishings that are ickified
    3. Catch up on phonecalls.. to friends, family or nagging ones you have been naughtily putting off!!
    4. wipe/wash/dust any ornaments
    Right off to start sorting the table/paperwork out in the living room.

    Hows your hand? i've done that many times when scooping out avocado stones and do i ever learn. In fact last time i did i said never again and what did i do a week later yep you get guessed it.

    Right better go and start or i never will.

    Woe is me! The hose on the Dyson is split. 5 working days for a new one. My stairs look like they have bird seed on them. Back to basics - dustpan and hard bristle brush.

    Morning all,

    Thanks to Pigpen, Soappie and Toots again for organising us all :T

    Hope you all had a good weekend? Hugs to those that didn't :)
    Thanks to everyone for their good wishes esp. Toottifrutti, Poppytime and Vanilla

    So far this morning I have; S&S bathroom and kitchen, DW, WM x 2, TD, Cleaned out fires x 2 and restocked fuels, tidied round, made beds and am off in a mo to attack Mondays list.

    Going out for old lady walk with friend this pm - slightly nervous as last one involved, bogs, gorse, more bogs, llamas, even boggier patch, climbing over barbed wire fences because horses wouldn't let us through very muddy gateway, nearly losing boot in boggy patch, scrambling through undergrowth, jumping a stream, coffee on a bench in crematorium, comfort and counsel to acquaintance we met in crem (?) followed by sheep and very brisk march home:eek: and the woman who writes them must be 70 if she's a day (hence 'old lady walks'). If I don't appear later, please send out search party!:D

  • Morning,

    Thank you to the usual suspect for the hard work you do keeping the fly family going :)

    Just popped on to get the list so I know what it is I should be doing even if I don't manage to do it!

    Really sorry to everyone that I haven't been able to keep up. ((Hugs)), good luck and healing vibes for all that need them

    DD seams a little better this morning :j She's kept her milk down last night and this morning (only had 3oz though, normally has 7oz) She slept for just under 14 hours last night and I think this has done her the world of good as she's not slept really since Thursday night.

    Thank you so much for all your thoughts and well wishes

    Going to try and do things as/when needed this week and will cross of what I've managed at the end of the week.

    Crazy unorganised mum in need of help!
