    Hi all, managed to almost rip my little toe off earlier...you know the cupboard, the majority of your foot goes one way, your little toe goes the other. :eek:

    Spent the day in A & E, not broken, thank gawd, but needed 3 stitches and bandages right up....

    Mopped up the blood, so that's flying isn't it?:cool:

    OOwww...

    I broke my little toe right foot like that, on a pushchair wheel, no blood for me but my then baby girl keep walking on it...:eek:
    Many,many hugs and coping vibes.

    Hugs to everyone!

    Triker that is definitely flying. Take care of the toe.

    Greenbee/LW agree that only cute cuddly dogs allowed. I can lend you mine:T Although not until DH gets home. I need at least one BD killer in the house when I'm feeling bad. Actually, considering the 2xhoovering I've had to do today, you can have the hound.

    pigpen Is it 9 you've got? Plus OH? I have OH and hound to deal with and I struggle. I bow down to superior flying and organisation. I have amazing respect for all the flying people. I'm working on level 1 and still struggling. I will get into a routine - after the holiday:)

    Hiya :) Bump getting rather large even though i'm only 17 weeks pregnant - go figure (*insert confused smiley here*) so my excuse for being a rubbish fly lady is aforementioned bump!

    Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining Mess
    Level One (ha hah! new oven = no cleaning required!!)

    Level Two
    Clear out a cupboard.. the larder unit if yyou jave one or just the general messiness of cupboard.. the one where you stuff all things useless.
    Level Three
    Wipe units and large appliances.. don't forget kickboards!
    Wipe the tops of the wall units.. lining them with old wallpaper or newspaper keeps them clean!
    wash windows!

    Extras
    1. Wash light shades and clean bulbs
    2. Sort out and restock baking cupboards

    I'm out of bed now :p windows open, one load of laundry in, breakfast being made, and bits of tidying being done. Will get dressed after breakfast and then deal with rubbish and recycling. I also have some stuff to post so a short walk may be in order. First meeting is at 10am so I have a bit of time.

    Sun is shining, so hopefully it will be a nice day.
    greenbee thats a better start - hope you are feeling more positive.
    vanilla I hope the children all helped - they are getting older and they can easily do some jobs for you - maybe you should think about daily tasks that would lessen the load for you.
    cycling yorkie your rant is very understandable - (((hugs)))
    choccybix nice to see you:D
