Weekly Flylady Thread 25th October 2010

Well!!!!!

Back home and all in one piece, GP sent me up to the hospital where the gynae SHO saw me, she was very thorough blood, USS, swabs etc, there is apparently nothing majorly wrong (hooray!!!) She suggested that I take the pain killers 4 times a day even if I don't feel the pain at that moment and drink plenty of fluids and rest....so off to bed LOL

As Next know of a problem though you don't need to make a fuss. A simple email to head office may get you some sort of compensation/vouchers. It's got to be worth a try.

OOh, clever

Is the list just for car journeys? If not, what about stocking up with milk/bread in the freezer for snow days?

eta good news msgnomey

vanilla huge hugs.

Oh my god, i am the worse flylady ever and its only week one! how rubbish!

We do not expect miracles/perfection at the end of the first week...or the second or third, come to that.

Did your house descend into CHAOS in 1 week?
No.
And it won't be perfect in one week.

Start with level 1s (plus your own dailies as required)
Once you are getting level 1 done in rapid time (because you are developing a routine) you add level 2...

personal testimony
My kitchen clean is level 3 most weeks now, so it never gets dire BUT when I started flylady there were things I did not do on a weekly basis - once they were included though I have continued to include them, takes little time and kitchen looks good. Prior to flylady I considered my kitchen clean enough if the floor had been mopped (as I was doing everything else as I went) well I wasn't doing everything else regularly. I am now though. But I have been here years...and every week I remove stuff from my kitchen windowsill and clean it. But I don't accumulate carp and gibble there anymore;)

hi all,

havent been on here much since I posted. I have tried many times to list DD's clothes on ebay as some have never been worn and some have only been worn once! they are like, brand new but I never seem to have much luck:( I have go so much to shift, any tips anyone can give me?

Have managed to get a start on the house today between working and I have managed to do two lots of washing:j I also told OH to bogof last night as I am sick to death of his moaning/picking on me re:house etc.:j there is only so far you can push someone!

hope you are all well and I will try and become a regular poster on here as I need all the help I can get! lol

kazwookie

Jasper~~ have a look at similar listings and see what they are doing / are your photos ok, if not take some more, / maybe list them in bundles rather that single items?

Vanilla~~ whilst I wouldn't normally suggest such things, but can she not have a 'cold' for 2 days??

I have bidding war on ebay over 2 of my items!! and they have another few days to go.

Floors done
Some clothes sorted out

Af still being a pain.................chilling for tonight

Hugs to all xxxx

Evening all!

Haven't posted in ages - just don't seem to be making in-roads into this house this last couple of weeks, however, have taken Half Term off to have some time with OH and kids and I WILL return to work Sunday evening with a clean, sparkly house.

Hope you are all keeping well and hugs and spoons to those in need of them.

Pigpen - congrats on getting your debt even lower - I've been waiting for your sig to change - yeah, I am that sad :rotfl:

Off to watch All New Fat Families now.
