Wednesday - Master Bedroom & Landing ALL DONE
Enjoyed my reflexology and have been to see mum.
We have had several heavy downpours and the cat got caught in one. He was soaking and had been sitting in the garden instead of sheltering. Hence the kitchen floor has been brushed of soil and twigs then washed.

Good Evening everyone,
I hope you don't mind if I join you, have been lurking since the weekend and figured it was rude not to say hello.
I spend most of my days off chasing a toddler so am quite pleased that have managed to:
Vacuum downstairs.
Clean up after the cat decided to ignore the pristine litter tray that I had just that minute refilled with fresh gravel having scrubbed it clean- Not impressed.
Wipe baby hand prints from two doors
Washing, no ironing yet, (will have to wait until tomorrow)
Washing up (am very lucky that my partner cooks evening meals which means I get some selfish time)
Run with my friend- our aim is to get round the block
Have so much still to do, but think it's worth trying to get myself into a gentle routine and gradual build up from there. Have been really inspired by reading your posts, thanks xx0 -
Am way behind on thread cause after SW(lost another 1 lb, yey!), watched a DVD with OH...(was good but he was so tired, he couldn't follow it so wll have to watch it again tomorrow/Sat down the van), then I lost my connection, so off to have a catch up with you all now.......
Oh, flying.....all todays washing is dried folded and put away....go me!!!0 -
MOAM - hope the news isn't too upsetting, and that any newly acquired labels are helpful rather than otherwise. I've emailed you too, as it suddenly occurred to me this afternoon that you might just be able to help out a colleague...0

It's zoelikesjam's wedding today so hopefully she will be having a wonderful day.
Going to mum and dad's for tea tonight so probably won't get much done but downstairs is still looking tidy and we've been using the DR table to eat at.
Have a good day all

work is going to be fun in September! (not!!)
The catering contractor for school dinners is changing - and it hasn't been handled well! With 5 days to go the cook still has no real idea what she will be cooking the first day back!
We are fighting to maintain our 'family service' - this company would rather we have 2 options (+veggie) per day - but we can't with family service.
Boss has said to cook that we have to give some of their menus a go - Parsnip and marmelade pudding? Not sure how we'd sell that one!
And 2/3 dinner staff may be leaving....why do you never lose the awful ones?
In truth the boss would like to reduce the size of the dinner staff (he told me!)- because of his budget problems. He could do it overnight by scrapping family service! Under the old system the dinner staff covered the hall and playground (and field in summer) - now we cover 2 halls (Victorian building!) and the outside stuff!
He reminds me of the people on Location, Location Location - those who can't acept that they can't have what they want where they want it because they don't have the cash!
anyway - it's a lovely day here - no work for me cos DD1 has this physio course - we'll see how it goes.......
Tonight is the works night out - I just have to avoid sitting in a clique!:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
Morning All,
Well, I managed to get nothing at all done yesterday, with bouncy, not very poorly, off sick DD3! She's off again today because she was sick yesterday, so no work for me today.
I'd like to get stuff done, but we'll see!!MMSSB Club Founder Member
