Hi all -
I didnt get through the mountain of clothes on my bed - I went to my friends and drank wine instead. When i got home, it all got pushed on the floor..... **:rolleyes at self:**
Have emptied and sorted the kitchen drawers, mended the front of the little drawer which keeps coming loose, thrown out loads of carp and useless receipts etc.
Suppose i should find something constructive to do...Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying

:money:We need chat, it makes the 'ugh' housework bit worth doing, if we all didn't need that support we wouldn't be here. As one of the original flylady golden mules wearing personages we've needed the natter from the start, when we've restricted it the thread doesn't work. That's why I went to a weekly thread with 3 levels of achievement to support those it didn't work for so they if they wish can read just the first thread, which is edited with new lists and reply without reading the rest.
Anyway enough of that, a very lazy weekend here, too lazy. I've managed to gut the kitchen and catch up on laundry but the rest :eek: nope. However positive as ever, at least I got one done better than nothing which I managed the week before.
I'm sat on the bed cooking myself in my dressing gown so I should make an effort to get dressed & go find something for tea......I've just ran out of conditioner, bother, my wilkos/quidco order is nearly at an end, just screen wash left........One day I might be more organised...........

welcome back toots & soappie
I've been making a mess in the kitchen - veg casserole in slow cooker. Aubergine & mushroom casserole in over with butternut squash roasting and broad bean, pea and spinach soup.
And of course, I'm running late... need to check whether I've been sent directions for this afternoon. I'm meeting some friends at a polo match... good to see how the other half live occasionally0 -

Only 6 weeks til the summer holidays then its 5 and a half weeks to recharge my batteries, get the house, my office and my classroom back into some sort of order ready for the new school year. I hate disorder and yet seem to spend so my of each year in that state.
Anyway for the time being I just need to try and keep on top of things the best I can. Have bought three of the large beech bookcases from Argos this morning and, now I just need to clear the spare room a bit so there is room to put them against one wall. That will then, give me a lot of space to put all my books etc. Kitchen also needs a good sort out and the washing and ironing doing. No peace for the wicked, as they sayWe don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.0 -
Welcome back toots.
I would think twice about trying to catch up with the thread - I had five pages to work through and I was only away for 24 hours.
Party was great (worth the 3 hour drive each way) Entertainment provided by some of the 7 grandchildren and I even managed to get some background information about a situation back here.
However I have come back with a resolution to sort myself out. (Yes, I know, not the first time I have posted that)
