    Good morning!! Just spent a jolly time celebrating DS1's 18th birthday morning, and he's off to school now.
    Hope all are well, I'm off to find a list. Got someone coming over this afternoon at 2 for coffee and the plumber is coming to finish the crumbly pipe about then too, so that'll be an interesting mix.

    Morning flyers, major stress moment as DS2 left pe kit in boot of car since friday, had to fabreeze and wetwipe and throw in dryer.:eek: Luckily it was just a tiny mark on jogging bottoms. So much for being stress free in the mornings, will definately check that it's in the wardrobe in future instead of just assuming.;)

    Hello :) Am going to call Monday done as I finished up to level 3, so only the extras I didn't do (except the fridge which I will be doing today) If I keep saying I will finish it I will just end up playing catch up all week and do less of todays then less of tomorrows etc. Onwards and upwards and am sure, eventually, everything will be done really quick as I will be doing it so regularly :D Going to see one of my best friends new baby today, born 6 weeks early - she came out of hospital this week end at two weeks old, so she is a fighter and VERY cute from all the pictures I have seen ;) Looking forward to a cuddle, but must crack on and get my fly-ladying done first :D

  • Morning everyone! I actually woke up excited about what todays challenges would be! :)

    I do feel that today is slightly cheating for me however, we live in a small flat, and our very little hallway doesnt have any windows, so I can cross a lot of the things off the list already! It does mean though that I should be able to get everything done that applies to us :)

    We also had a major sort out of the cupboard in the hall at the weekend, the shelf in there was broken, so everything was just thrown in meaning the ironing board and hoover had been living in out bedroom for probably the last year...but no more!! They are back in the cupboard where they belong!!

    Sockdrawer - Happy 18th Birthday to your DS

    Pigpen - I feel for you with painful hands. I can't hold a breadknife but it is getting better.

    Greenbee - Sorry it's gone pear-shaped again. Hugs.

    Another fan of Ovenpride here and thanks for the link for the oven liner. £9.99 decluttered from bank account.

    DH did school run and I had a wonderful lie in. Just eaten breakfast and am still in my dressing gown. He is away tonight and my mother has finally decided to come and help me by taking me to my hand therapy appointment at 6.30.

    I hope to catch up with a DF today Fingers crossed I get the text I am waiting for.

    So far today I have collected all the dirty washing from the 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms which has generated 8 loads of washing. This does not include DD1's sheets which are due to be done today (7 people = 1 set a day). Plus more muddy PE kit from DS2.
