Flylady Challenge - Take 3

broomstick27

Two months after starting flylady I have decluttered all the major zones in my house :T :j

Will probably have to do it again when I become more ruthless but for now its onto cleaning

noone mention conservatories or lofts :eek:

Hello all. I would like to join this challenge please. I definitely have chaos (cant have anyone over syndrome).

Today my only intention is to shine my sink before I go to bed. Anything else will be a bonus. I'll write up my plans for tomorrow and be sure to check in then.

Good luck everyone!

My eldest boy is in nursery today so I have been 'flying' with a vengence this morning. I have done:
Weekly house blessing
Laundry loads x2
Carted loads of gear up into loft after our walking holiday
Sorted out old maternity clothes to sell on ebay - definately no plans to have a third baby

A major decluttering is still needed but I'm taking time out to have a coffee and catch up with all your doings while my 6 month old sleeps. This site is definately addictive.

Hello to all the newbies!

TNG - if you are aiming for crispy you ned to cook your duck on a rack with a dish underneath to catch the fat, you will have to empty it after half an hour. I always get mine out of its packing the day I buy it and leave it in the fridge uncovered for at least 24 hours - guided by Delia. makes a big difference and is a lot less effort then the whole hairdryer thing.

anyway when i did the big clean a few months ago i packed my hairdryer somewhere and have not found it again yet.....:o

good point! definately make sure the whole o fthe roasting tin is covered in fil as well. Cleaning the hard burnt duck fat off the roasting tin, is up there with the worst jobs going and it takes aaaaaages

Thanks for the tip, though:D

I have visited Chinatown and purchased myself a proper bamboo steamy thing :j , some pancakes and some Hoi Sin Sauce (thanks for the tip lynz. Went for Lee Kum Kee brand in the end I'll let you know)

All I need to do now is to remember to pick up some spring onions on my way home and we're off (got cucumber)

hex2 - ta for the info. It has been sat in the fridge with it's rub on overnight and all day today, so i think it's good to go

Well done broomstick27 (I don't like mention of the 'L' word either )

So far I've managed:-

to laugh my head off at the chat on here! :rotfl:

Work
Wages done (well lets face it I'd be dead on Friday otherwise - nothing like incentive to get your backside moving!):rolleyes:
some invoicing
No cheques written - ummm it gives me indigestion this paying people lark:D

house
DW done
kit sides clear
5 loads washing done (trying not to think about ironing yet:eek: )
had a quick whizz through house and to be fair it's still pretty tidy after last weeks blitz - must learn to chill a bit:o
Off to make mince and dumplings for DD's tea (pre extract sweeties from nice neighbours meal) and after OH eventually returns this evening the grown ups will be having a nice steak in red wine:D :j
