Weekly Flylady Thread 24th May 2010

Marru

Hello,

I am in this week but with a twist if I may. I have 10k race and exams coming up and am off from work to study this week so really need to get 6 study sessions and 2 mile run done each day. I might squeeze in 15 minutes decluttering in between each study session.

Ready to try again....

Followed flylady once about 5 weeks ago and started to feel that I was starting to get my life organised and then the computer broke! Once it was fixed I didn't get round to doing it again. Now I feel that the chaos is reigning supreme so am back again.....

Evening all

Piggers - squeak seems to have a lot of lovingly knitted cardies by your very fair hands but does the babe had anything else to wear? Or is it just cardis that you can knit? What about nighties, booties, mittens?

I am in this week. Though I'm ahead given the bathroom is pristine I need to knuckle down. My DiL's grandmother (who speaks no English) is over for a month so I need to invite her here. Discussed options with DiL and DS when they came over for Sunday roast this evening and I have settled on a Proper English afternoon tea (rather than dinner which might just prove a tad taxing what with interpretting going on all the time!). So the place needs to be up to scratch for the Royal visit.....

And my son never fails to amaze me with his ingenuity. I sometimes wonder if he borders on the Aspergic or something because he is really paranoid about certain things - particularly security.

We were talking about security and things this evening. He talked about being able to hide anything anywhere and then asked me if I knew of the hidey hole he used in his old bedroom (which is now DD's room). I said no. He said he used it to hide the piece of paper that came from the bank with the pin number on a card he had years ago.

I asked where. He then pointed to the bedroom door. Blank look from me. He got a screwdriver out and unscrewed, slightly, the screws from the hinge at the top of the bedroom door and lo and behold, in the cavity that was revealed as the hinge was loosened, there was a tiny folded up piece of paper containing his v. old pin number. Must have been there about 15-16 years... But what thought processes think up hidey holes like that?

Staggering.... and I'm actually quite impressed.

But I'm also pooped. Did Mr T this morning, planted up stuff in the garden. Wrote an article, cooked roast dinner. Washed up after roast dinner. Mucked out the bathroom properly after the decorating yesterday. Folded and put away several washing machine loads that had gathered over the last few days.

I shall sleep well tonight and hope that you all do too xxx
