    Morning FLYbabes, FLYboy, FLYnewbies and our latest FLYbaby Charlie.

    Spooky - Michelle just yesterday I was gonna post and ask if anyone had heard from you and here you are! Yipee :j Take Penny's advice and spend the precious time you have with your beautiful new baby - housework can wait! Just do the basics like dinner, wash a day and the odd swish. Best advice I had was 'sleep when baby sleeps!

    Welcome Ellybel & Mandi! :hello:

    It's good to know that when you have a bad day others make up for it by having a good day - keep it up kscour, Baileys Babe and of cause our Penny!

    Picked nyself up off the floor last night and got a few bits done before bed which meant I could hit the floor running today.

    Done so far:
    Beds made
    All washing up done (DW would appear to be broken :mad: )
    One wash done, second on
    TD on
    All rooms straight and tidy (except Punky's office which we don't mention...)
    S&S ensuite
    Lots of tea made for builders

    To do:
    Brace myself for inlaws - not happy with FIL as builders found his footprints in the newly laid concrete :mad:
    Cook Shepherds Pie
    Do something with mountain of carrots
    Attack ironing mountain - there's a skip outside - that might do it :rolleyes:
    Get ready for NCT group who will [STRIKE]attack[/STRIKE] visit home this afternoon.

    What I'd like to do
    Relax!

    Have a good day all. Punky xx

  • todays task
    For today I want you to grab your broom and your mop. Sweep your kitchen floor really well and then mop. There are several ways to mop a kitchen floor and no real wrong way. Hot soapy water and wipe. There is no "perfect" mop and no "perfect" way to do it. Just Do It!

    Your 'logged on' light's still on Ellybel..........:naughty::naughty::naughty:

  • Hiya everyone.

    I think this may be the earliest i'll get on from now on. :rotfl: Pen Pen and punky - please don't worry i'll do too much. That's what the weekend is for, so Dh can play with him and i can have some time to myself. Plus, i will be trying to sleep when he does as i am already poopered. :D

    Achieved so far:
    • slept in till 9:45. (mainly as Charlie had 3 feeds last night, not the usual 2. No wonder he put on 10 oz this week)
    • had a bath, and cleaned my teeth before DH got home from work :j - bad mummy left him whimpering for a bit. I think he has forgiven me though
    • made bed
    • dealt with post - strangely pampers sent me out a letter telling me he is now 12 months old. That did go quick. No wonder i am tired. :rotfl: Not moaning about the £2 off voucher though.
    • been to drs - chatted to lots of grannies who wanted a peek in the car seat
    • collected prescription - didn'tleave baby anywhere on 1st solo outing

    plan for the rest of the day:
    • check internet banking
    • prepare sweet potato and courgette ready to roast in oven for tea. (cheating and having shop bought pizza tonight)
    • put WM on, empty airers and hang washing up. I have got a technique of collecting bits of laundry as i wander around the house, and then putting on once i've found a whole load.
    • cuddle my cats as they are feeling a bit neglected, which i can probably do while snoozing. :rolleyes:

    My next door neighbour may also be popping around for an hour this afternoon.

    At least i feel better because i am clean today, although i may have to brave the ironing pile before i get dressed tomorrow, or i could be scraggy and sit in PJs or stained clothes all day. He has a nack of only being sick on me and staying clean himself. Which isn't too bad cos i don't have the ab dabs when its time to change.

    Hope you are all having as much fun as me. I am having to be quite creative, but i will still get there.

    Michelle, xx

  • Good evening Flyers!

    Today, I've been at w*** so all the flying I've done is post a letter! I'm now making mushroom and pumpkin risotto for tea with the children, then they'll have baths while I tidy round. We'll then snuggle up for a chat and some TV. Ooohh, forgot, we'll obviously listening to the 15000th episode of The Archers, too!

    Hope you've all had a good day!
