    Mop kitchen floor
    Get carp off stairs (hoovering can wait!)
    Stir fry for dinner

    Morning everyone

    Gosh, you are all incredibly motivated! This is impressive...

    My plan for the morning:

    run the dishwasher
    wash a load of bedclothes
    remake the bed
    tidy around the kitchen
    sweep kitchen floor
    spend at least 15 minutes but pref 30 mins sorting out the red hot hotspot of piled up papers in my office

    This afternoon I want to go out blackberry picking again, and see if I can track down an apple or plum tree, or both, for some free fruit. I've been hooked by the jam-making lark.

    Good music - I suggest the best of ABBA! However I will work in the quiet, am finding it hard to tolerate even musical noise at the moment.

    Happy Flylady and Flyboying everyone.

  • I'm in - today I want to tidy our room and get all the boxes in the loft that should be there, clean the kitchen tiles and window (it's huge) an dmake some chutney, and turn the heel on dh's Xmas pressie - not FLC but has to be done before he gets back

    And go swimming - FLC for the body

    I decided to work from home, though I'll have to pop to the office to see if anyone's sent payment - I hope so, the bank account's at it's OD limit :eek: Pay in any cheques then I'll come straight back home, it should take about half an hour.

    I've done an hour's work, sorted the bedroom out (well sort of - everything that doesn't belong in there has been put in piles on the bed lol) and the WM's just finished. Tea-break time for me, I think :D
