  • That's not fair to go on like that without wishing all the best to everyone -where are my manners (probably hidden under a load of gibble)
    May you fill up the great clutterbucket of life and may all of your leaks be in cheese sauce:D
    Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without:cool:

    Vanilla :- the cheeky get. ah well teast you got the doctor on the your side! Can see the HTT face now haha
    Pig pen:- my wshings the same i swear everyone was gone by the weekend now its taking over again. I mean where does it come from?

    Hi all didn't have a cuppa in the end, decided to go out in the sun and risk life and limb cleaning the windows. Yes i did look very strange cleaning cleaning the highest bits with a mop. No change they then.But now its freezing, the suns disapeered, going to have to shut all the windows its bleeding cold.

    Jobs done:-
    cleaned all windows in the house and back outside windows (ground level), cleaned all the doors (in and out)
    upstairs bathroom - all done
    threw more rubbish in the bins.

    jobs to be done
    make bread
    use up going south fruit
    paint kitchen ceiling
    hang clothes out
    make beds
    put dark load in the washer
    finish cushion
    mend DH's work trousers
    find placement


    Oh also found out i now owe the DWP £216.60 and council tax another £260 because they didn't take the discount off me after i told them repeatedly arghhh.
    How annoying, i mean i only asked them last month if i owed any money: -the answer no love your fine now. Bleeding typical.
    ah well going to have that cuppa at las and watch the last episode of five days.

    Morning Everyone :wave:

    Still ‘tinternetless at home so posting from work again! Can’t concentrate today as am getting my new (used) car J and it has already a towbar fitted so we opened our £1 tin last night and there was £328 in it!!!! So am well pleased, it will now go in our caravan fund. I find it easier doing the list the way I done it last week, working through and then mopping all the floors on the one day with the same bucket, saves filling it up 3 or 4 times and saved me asking Toots for my stars on all different days.:D

    Welcome to all the newbies, I found the lists extremely hard at first as I work FT, 2 kiddies a DH who works shifts and a cat and wondered how I would EVER get out at the weekend, now it’s a breeze and declutter, declutter, declutter is the best thing I got told oh and you must make sure all your pegs match when you hang your washing outside to pass the “Flylady Initiation” :rotfl::p:p:D:p:D:p:rotfl:

    Jinky – Ditto what everyone else says, please pass on love & hugs to the brave & wonderful LL x
    Ruth – Thinking of you xx
    Toots – Hope you are ok in hospital x
    SandyGood luck for today, hope they get you sorted
    Soappie – Good luck for today and am sure you can deal with that nasty son, he sounds a right charmer!
    Pigpen – Dunno what else to say really about your FW of a KH other than !!@*_&*’##!!! and as for DS, taking him to the police station the last time obviously never done any good??
    Sexy – Not long now, each day you go in tell yourself that’s one less day you have to spend there x
    Diva­ – Hugs and healing vibes as always, very short post from you this morning x
    Vanilla – WTG with the payment plan!!! And hope your hubby gets some respite, whats wrong with him if you don’t mind me asking? (am nosey me) I must have missed something :huh:

    Afternoon all

    Today's list done :)

    I've also done all the bedrooms today. The weather forecast is saying rain tomorrow onwards so it seemed sensible to do the bedding today. So I've got three loads out on the line, blowing well in the sun. It's lovely but the wind is a bit chilly. I'll claim for the bedrooms when the right day/s come round.

    I've prepared everything ready to cook dinner but I've got another half an hour until I need to start so I'm going to catch up on here. Hope everyone's OK.

    The thread doesn't make very happy reading.:(

    RUTH, SANDY71, LADY L, PIGPEN, TOOTS sending best wishes and hugs for you all.

    Makes my own problems seem very insignificant. DS1 has misbehaved at school so they won't letting him go on a trip which he MUST GO ON to get his BTEC. I can't believe they will let him throw 2 years of work away by punishing him like this.

    I was also laid low with a bout of D & V yesterday afternoon. I feel rather wiped out today.
