Jaibaby in need of a kick up the backside!

Dont worry about the number of posts on the Flylady thread you arent expected to read them all:)

It is a very supportive thread and really helps to get your house in order starting with babysteps its surprising how quickly it comes together and turns from CHAOS to a lovely family home.......come on over we are a really friendly bunch xx

We are a family of 8...OH works away a LOT and I help run a Toddler group 3 days a week...so luckily can take youngest 2 with me...but the HHC etc really makes a difference...we are very different from the American site...much more normal :rotfl: seriously though my house has never been so easy to keep on top of since I joined 18 months ago xx

• Had 6 black bags of clothes off my nan to put on ebay :cool:
• Made my dad a healthy curry (same as I cooked the kiddies Friday)

Had lovely text message from my dad saying thanks for the curry and that he really enjoyed it! I'm very happy as he is a tough critic!!

Tomorrow:

• Finish the living room
• Interview in town
• Start sorting through DD1&2 old clothes

That's all I'm going for tomorrow, as I'm not sure how much time I will have left after the interview.

Hello,
Looks like you've made a great start to this year! I really should do what your doing, but I'm terrible for making to do lists, and then not doing it!
I'm doing two OU courses as well (not kids, but one full time job, and an OH who is like having a kid!) and finding time is hard! I've managed to get the weekend off, so hope to get a big chunk done!

I want to try ebay as a seller, but it scares me...

Thanks

I've been unwell this weekend so have fallen behind a bit. :mad:

I think I will join the flylady thread. I seriously need to declutter. All this week I have tidied the living room floor, to have to do it all again the following day. My kids have too many toys. I have too much junk. Not a good combination.

So, hopefully today, I shall:

• Get some more items listed on ebay
• Tidy up the kitchen
• Iron the kids uniform ready for tomorrow
• Finish my uni assignment
• Hoover the living room (again :mad:)

That's all I'm setting myself today as I'm still not feeling 100%. Will be back later to update the list :cool:

Very proud of myself! Spent three hours sorting, photographing (is that a word?) and listing the items on ebay. Already have a few watchers too, so all is good

Tomorrow's list:

• Get up and out of the house early enough to take the girls for a mcDonalds breakfast, as I've been promising for the last 2 weeks (ooops)
• Go to the library to borrow "The Takeaway Secret" - have been reading about it on here and fancing having ago.
• Go to asda to get some ingredients, and not forget to use my vouchers!
• Have a sort through the girlies clothes, wash and dry any and stick them on ebay
• Work through two units of my course (I need to catch up!!)
• Do at least half an hour of a workout (Again, I need to catch up!!)

• Work through two units of my course (I need to catch up!!) I managed an hour, which worked out as half a unit
• Do at least half an hour of a workout (Again, I need to catch up!!) No time

And I was unable to get on yesterday as I was sooooo busy packing parcels to be posted for ebay sales :T

A grand total of 19 items sold yesterday, and they were ones I put on before the ones on Sunday, so I'm really pleased. Looks like lower the postage does some good. Just hope none "get lost" in the post now

Oh, today I;
Tidied my kitchen
Cleaned out my fridge
Washed up
Two loads of washing, but none dried

Not much, I know, but I was really busy with my DS. I had to get him out of the house, he was so hyper for some reason. At one point he was headbanging to Linkin Park. Not that I have any problem with him liking them, I love them, but he is almost two and shouldn't be listening to that yet. Lol. Ooh, and he loves Lady Gaga!
Anyways,

So tomorrow;

• I have some more bags coming off my nan so sort them out and put on ebay
• Do at least two loads of washing and dry it all
• Do ironing
• Do uni work
• Do Ea Active!!!

See you tomorrow :cool:
