Flylady Challenge - Take 3

carrie give him a cloth and have him help!!.. obviously only if he is able!

Mine helped from the minute they were mobile!! they'd have a duster (or a baby wipe) and follow me around wiping and more often than not would soon get fed up and go find some proper things to play with!

Hope he settles soon!

ive given up on todays cleaning. too much to do and ds isnt behaving....

Turn it into a game. Use the alarm on your mobile phone and try and beat the clock! Pick up clutter before the alarm goes off else you get tickled:) DD loves doing this, in fact I should do it more often!

Oh! party, well I have some gooseberry gin and some blackberry vodka;)

I am Tackling My Pantry.

It would have been bad enough discovering the hidden stash of bulk-bought pulses, all just in date, but I didn't get there first. The mouse did. After cleaning, I have peppermint-oiled everywhere within an inch of its life. That worked when he found the birdseed.

I have been at it since mid-morning, and now I need to deal with half a dozen things still out on the work surface, but just had to have 5 minutes off with a cup of tea.

that sounds like a good plan Carrie.

My evening plans are..

Sit on behind with a cuppa...

5:30/6ish.. feed the monsters.. and have a cuppa

Send DH to pick up freecycle stuff for nursery (christmas ornaments)

Yell for half an hour while the monsters dither about when they are meant to be getting themselves ready for bed..

Put everyone to bed.. YIPPEE!!!

Have another cuppa..

Have a shower.. go to the pub.. come home.. hope I don't vomit my innards outards again like I did last time..

SLEEP!!!

I might make Ds1 load the d/w before I go to the pub and maybe fiddle with the t/d's and w/m's while food is cooking.

Oh such fun!!

Will do tea later, but Im off for a lie down

Not a lot done other than WM twice, and we look like a bomb has hit. On the positive side I have managed to get the house purchase back on track, at least for now.
