    I only got halfway through yesterdays list :( That's my first two days only getting halfway.

    I'm going to aim for only Level 1 today - maybe I'm just trying to jump in a bit higher than I should be aiming for at the moment! I feel very lazy seeing how much housework others are able to do - I'm really finding it hard!

    So todays list:
    Wednesday - Bedroom of Duvet-nia & Landing of Loveliness
    Level One
    [STRIKE]Open the window and air the room
    Strip off smelly bedding and sling it in the wash[/STRIKE]

    I also want to spend 15 mins in our room so that I can start on the paperwork pile that is on the dressing table - I know thats not where paperwork is supposed to be, but it has somehow become the place where anything the postman brings is piled up on.

    Morning all

    School run done, popped to the corner shop to get the local paper as their is a picture of DS3's class in there.

    LL thinking of you today

    G&B hope LO is well enough to come home later

    Soappie - good luck (could it be the hot water coming on?)

    have mananged to exercise the Guinea pigs

    This made me smile, I imagine you have them circuit training with little weights and balance bars:rotfl:


    PC acting odd and sending me emails from people in my address book which I am sure are not genuine so I'm going to run some spy-ware checks.

    Shoulder is a bit better so plan on doing my dailies and a dust of the landing but that is it.

    DS2's new mattress came this morning so I will wash his topper cover and DS3 can have that.

    Good morning fellow flyers!

    Finally at my desk at work now, so quick re-cap on what I accomplished Flywise today so far:

    Wednesday - Bedroom of Duvet-nia & Landing of Loveliness
    Level One
    [STRIKE]Open the window and air the room
    [/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Strip off smelly bedding and sling it in the wash
    [/STRIKE]
    Level Two
    Vacuum the mattress and air the duvet - okay that didn't happen...

    [STRIKE]remake bed with the clean bedding[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Put the floordrobe in the wardrobe[/STRIKE]
    Find 10 things to get rid of! - Tonight's job.
    Level Three
    Vacuum the landing and bedroom.. Wash down the stairs, (wooden staircase) - tonight's job
    [STRIKE]
    Remove any cobwebs
    Remove some dust bunnies and wipe over the light shades
    [/STRIKE]


    Extras
    1. HHC clear out the airing cupboard and fling, fling, fling! This will also be done tonight.
    After 3 days my house is starting to really show the benefits of my flying.

    I am also loving the results of my '5 minute room rescue' everynight before bed. I HIGHLY recommend it.

    I've changed my sleeping hours to 10.30 - 6.00am. I used to stay up til midnight and fall out at 7.15, then proceed to rush around like a crazy person trying to do everything in 35 mins.

    I like this new organised me!

    Morning All

    Grey & overcast here ....... always feel I have to give a weather update for Soappie's benefit :p

    Thanks for all the well wishes guys.....I have already been to my GP this morning, he has increased the morphine & given me something to try & improve my appetite & control the sickness, so we will see :( CT scan this afternoon, have to be there at 2pm to drink the disgusting radioactive stuff (not good when you are sick!!) & be fitted with all my IV's then the scan takes place at 3pm.


    Wanted to send loads of luck to Lemanie but I've probably already missed you xx

    Diva You know how much I love you Sweetie :love: think we were both just over-tired last night ;) :A

    Jinks :love: Thanks for always cheering me up & not treating me as if I'm wrapped in cotton-wool :p xx

    GnB Continued love & vibes for you & LO xx

    Mummyof5 Big hugs honey..you seem to be going through the mill at the moment....take care xx

    JennyJ Thanks for the PM ..... wise words...it meant a lot :) x

    Sexy :wave: Thanks :A xx

    Sending love & hugs to all because I'm sure I have forgotten someone :o

    I think I've just missed you, but good luck with your appointment today lemanie - will be thinking of you.

    Hugs for GnB and her lovely LO.
    Hope DH's finger has returned to normal Triker.
    Hugs for Diva - glad to hear you've finally got the meds - I've had those things before, and agree they taste foul, but at least they seem to be working.
    pigpen I would definitely confront this woman regarding the photo - I would also have issue with the fact that she is in school without a CRB to be honest, as everyone in our school, including parent helpers had to have one if they were working with children (sorry if I've got the wrong end of the stick here).
    Good luck vibes to soappie for your interview and test today - I'm sure you'll be great!
    Well done to ajmoney on the amount of words you've managed to do - I've been watching in awe at the amount you've been able to do in one sitting - you'll be finished in no time at all.
    Hugs to anyone feeling low or poorly.

    Just off to declutter myself into the shower.
