Sweep and mop the floor Mr Fresian shall be given that one
Clear and wipe worksurfaces
Shine the sink!

Level Two
Wipe fronts of appliances and units
Get out your toothbrush and scrub the grout and taps!

Level Three

Clear and wipe window sills
Clean the oven and hob..
Scrubbing of the fridge

Mr Fresian has done the floor in the kitchen, bathroom and hall today (Gawd bless 'im!) and has also done all the dishes and cleaned all the surfaces in the kitchen. I'm going to have to add polishing his halo to my Flylady list as he also went to the Post Office and collected my parcels.

Thanks to mumof4 as one of the parcels was a Cravendale mug for Mr Fresian, so he's very pleased with that. I also got a competition win in the post - an Adopt A Penguin pack I'm going to give to his sister as part of her Christmas present. The final thing that came was a new mouse for Mr Fresian - I bought him one for his birthday in April that cost me almost £50 and the back button on the mouse broke. I wasn't pleased so emailed Amazon on Saturday and received a replacement today. I'm really impressed with their customer service

Right, farming to do, dinner to make and kitchens to scrub. How's everyone else tonight?

While I remember. My spends today are:

£1 on a raffle ticket (Mama Fresian is flogging them for Cancer Research, I have to say yes!)
£1.30 on milk from the corner shop. I could get it cheaper in Morrisons but would spend more on "bargains" when all I really needed was milk

Shameless copy and paste from Flylady.

Monday ~ Living room, Hall and Stairs

Level One
Level Two
declutter and dust the tops of any units and dust ornaments
Wipe the sofas if needed or wash covers as required
Wipe and water plants, dust and deweb But only because I don't have plants
Declutter and wipe fire surround
Level Three
Check house for draughts and make a plan to plug them before it gets REALLY wintery cold! We're not bad for that luckily, although if anyone wants to buy me new central heating that would be lovely
Hang pictures/mirrors etc that you have had for AAAAGES and not got round to doing yet! None to do
Empty and clear out a cupboard or drawer..

Extras

Wipe table and replace cloth if needed Don't have a table
Level Three
Clear and wipe window sills

Scrubbing of the fridge Started the fridge but lost my oomph

Extras

None today for me - although saying that I've done washing already today and emptied bins, so I suppose I have done some extras. I'm also about to crack on with some Christmas card making/writing which isn't Flying as such but is becoming more organised.

***

I'm just about to finish the last card for Angelic and I'll get Mr F to pop them in the post tomorrow or Thursday. I have a load of stuff to post so I may as well do it all at once.

Evening!!

I was routing around for your diary and couldn't find it so I started again, only for it to be on the first page - I really must subscribe!!

Spends for today...

£3.00 on diluting juice - water doesn't exist in my house *rolls eyes*
£1.56 on dairylea - we've been going through loads of this recently!
£4.47 on halloween sweets - just incase we get any guisers :cool:

Don't be worrying too much about getting the cards sent but it's very thoughtful of Mr F to make the trip to the post box for you :A

You're doing so well on the Flylady thing. I can completely identify with your comment about the difference it makes, I really must try to get back to it.

The bits of the house I have done look so much better but I'm knackered I don't know if I can keep this level of cleanliness up all week :rotfl:

Today's room is the bedroom so I don't think that my halo will stay above my head - I always manage to get the rest of the house looking great but the bedroom is always a tip

Haven't done any Flying this morning, but have made chilli for dinner so that's in the slow cooker and will do the dishes while my toast is toasting.

In MSE news, I received my latest Ebay payment, so that's another £9.94 towards my credit card bill. I'm wondering if I should just use my loan savings to pay off the whole thing and then PAD to the loan again? Anyone got any thoughts? It would save me gathering interest...

Pay it off & then put it in a block of ice!!!!!!
(i know yoiu cant really cause of points.)
For me Im beginning to wonder if the points are worth it TBH.
It runs up so quick & then its a lot out of the folling months money IYSWIM.

£320 paid to it today, not going to use it for a week to see what the true balance now is.

Every time I use it, I transfer the money from my groceries/spends account into an account I have for paying the credit card, so it doesn't affect my budgeting too badly

Lunchtime spends are £2 on doughnuts (for the office, not for me!) and £0.80 on a macaroni pie. It was looking at me when I went into Greggs, I couldn't just leave it on the shelf all alone
