Weekly Flylady Thread 24th May 2010

Spendless

Have made a start on the laundry. It's all in neat piles rather than all over the place, so it looks nicer even if it's still not organised.
I got the underwear drawer and asked Mr S if he'd pair up socks if I sorted out knickers and he agreed without protest. :huh: He moaned much more last week about me asking him to shut a wardrobe door he'd left open???? I did ask him 5 mins before footy started, maybe that's it, ask before they become engrossed in a matcha and they'll agree to the first thing, so you're not thinking up plenty of other things they can do instead.:D

Good day at work, unlike last week.Poisonous girl now suspended for 5 days after swearing at me and a deputy head.:D (for the suspension, not the swearing...) The cynical part of me knows it's because it gets her out of the way when the inspection is going on...

Quite like the colours on here, but I can't see any avatars - can everyone else? I actually have to read your names now!

I have washed up, and supplied food. Having rest of evening off.

valli - your pay includes INSET, proportional to the time you work, regardless of when it takes place. I have to do two and a half days, whether or not it's on days I normally work, and now I've done my 2 1/2, I'm not going to the twilight on Wednesday - it's my birthday and I have far better things to do than listen to someone wittering on for three hours on unlocking potential. If I've misunderstood - sorry!

LW - sidney should be your priority this week. You've been flying regularly, so I'm sure your house can cope with a week of the bare minimum. That's the point of having it under control! Enjoy the company, and well done for being able to take him out without Mr LW. Sounds like it's a big step for you, and you've done very well :T:T:T

LW - ditto what greenbee said - be proud of what you have achieved too. xx
