Weekly Flylady Thread 24th January 2011

Maxonian

Well I'm sat in the little bedroom freezing my t**s off.
HOWEVER, the TD is working! The part had come today, and our lovely postie had thrown it over the gate cos it wouldn't fit thru the letterbox. We didnt check the side until late as were caught up in the heating not working. Anyway, it seems to have done the trick - no leaks.

2 more items decluttered to freecyclers - 2 more going tomorrow.

Off to Mums in the morning to do a few jobs for her (I wish we were nearer - well maybe not?) and to show her how to do an online shop.
She was 80 last year and has only been online since about September. She seems to have taken to it, so we will let her loose with her debit card now.
Only trouble is she's a retired teacher, so doesn't like to be told :rotfl:
WM is on and so is the TD. I will be able to change the bed tomorrow!

Bed changed (realised that I hadn't got around to washing the last set of sheets from last week :doh:, so had to put on the summer bedding - oops - will have to put an extra blanket on the bed if it gets too cold ). Now off to do the DW and round up all of the cups etc (mainly mine ) that are around the house so that I can reload it. Think I'll take my new vitamins too whilst I'm down there (hopefully it'll speed up my recovery).

DH cleared my kitchen table hotspot for me! what a bonus!

Having to get up early tomorrow to sort out the drawing room before guests come though...

Mumto5

Why is thre nothing on TV on Saturday night:(

DH is out at his company's awards evening. He had to be pushed out the door to go. It's freezing cold here and a DJ doesn't offer much protection from the elements. I hate this weekend of the year he can never take me out because of the annual shindig. I get peeved as it's the weekend nearest to my birthday.

Going to declutter a packet of giant buttons to cheer myself up. Nom nom

you're 25 minutes away from me. We should meet up at Chavda :rotfl:

Mrs_B

Mr B decided to fix my WM at 10.00 pm. :T

I have now removed all sorts of gunky stuff from pipes, wiped out cupboards, lost screws, found screws, and completed two test runs.

Now going to take a deep breath and put a "proper" wash through. :j

The downside is that my tidy kitchen is tidy no more as cupboard contents, clothes, tools and the like are strewn everywhere. Mr B has gone to bed! :rotfl:
