Flylady Challenge - Take 3

hex2

Morning everyone,

Lynz, hope you feel better - hard to motivate yourself to tidy when you feel rough.

It is likely that our buyers will be coming this weekend, and we have stepsons and a visitor for the weekend so lots to do here.

A slow morning so far, I have filled the WM, and tidied the bathroom. Lots to do but first we need to go and visit Aldi for the weeks food shop. Good shop for small children as it is fast to get round. Just a shame they don't do double trolleys.

DS1 is having a go at potty training with the resultant messy carpets - he is 3.5 and I am getting a bit stressed that he is so reluctant.

TNG are you hiding again - still suffering with that hangover?

Flylady Zone this week is the kitchen.

Take 15 minutes and scrub your stove top! Soak the knobs and drip pans in hot soapy water while you clean the stove top. Some elbow grease and hot soapy water will take care of a lot! Don't become a perfectionist and try to get it as clean as the day it was new. Just do the best you can and then scrub the drip pans and knobs. Don't scrub the knobs so hard that the numbers and words scrub off!

She also says to tidy all halloween stuf up an put away - which I am sure all of us has already done??

I have an 'unpacking strategy':) so pleased am I that it is going to be the way I unpack from now on.
I have one of those pop up laundry baskets from poundland so i got that in the hall and got all the dirty clothes etc in there in the hallway before taking the bags upstairs. It was better than unpacking upstairs, plus it was all wee wee wee this morning again :eek: so i have 2 loads to do before I even can think about doing any more clothing
I am supposedly back on the flip chart today, but sleeping in a pontins budget chalet sofa bed (roll together like you have never known before...sleeping in a v shape) I have done my neck in. Lovely Hubby applied weird japanese heat pad to my neck in the night but I still cant turn my head around!!!
Got the meals planned for the week, roasting my pumpkin ready for a pie and soup for tea - hope they see the funny side!
Dealt with the post this morning within 20 minutes of it arriving, like it when I can do that straightaway.

Like you Sarahsaver, I like to deal with the post as soon as it arrives, I'm more likely to deal with it not just put it in a hot spot.

More thoughts about swish/swipe, I was thinking of putting a mircofibre cloth and a spray bottle of stardrops (diluted) under the bathroom sink and wipe the bathroom over before going to bed each night. Does this sound right?
