Weekly Flylady Thread 17th January 2011

1_step_closer

Gosh several flyladies really are being strength tested now - massive hugs for all of you. Makes my little worries seem like peanuts.

Flying today:

Tidied garden - nice to see some bulbs coming up and it looks as though one plant I thought I'd lost is recovering.
Bin bag dance!
Washing
Lots of paperwork!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is no point in me trying to declutter the whole house in one go so I am concentrating on one room at a time. The computer room is a big enough challenge right now - although I have noticed that clearing one lot has led to more form filling and questions. Not good!

Take care all

Pigpen sorry to hear your news. May her journey to the Summerlands be easy.

AnW's I have my favourite piece of yellow citrine on the desk beside me in honour of Yellow Day.

Helen and Sunnygirl and Grateful massive posi-vibes and (((HUGS)))

Door #6 (bathroom) is being worked on; Mr LW has set off the smoke alarm (again!) by using the electric planer in the hallway - the alarm thinks the fine wood dust is smoke particles, I reckon.

I've decluttered another thundering long list of CAMRA beer scores onto the spreadsheet. I wish we could join in the actual checking of the pubs, but so many have no wheelchair access; also they check 6 or 7 different ones in a single evening, which would just be too tiring for me.

It's all gone quiet.... I think I'd better go and see what Mr LW's up to (making coffee or tea, with any luck;)).

LW do CAMRA not have a DDA catagory or just access notes, there must be a few people who go to visit others and would like to know if they could pub visit / use the loos?

Why don't you get a Japanese takeaway? I am sure DH would appreciate that! :rotfl:
