Flylady Challenge - Take 4

kscour

Is that the time already!
sorted kids games
cleared away sewing mess from panto costumes
hung another 2 loads of washing out & another load in machine - & still there's more!
made lunch for me, 2 DD's & their friend who has come round
started on kitchen sides
DD's now playing so I shall stop the "roll the dice & see which jobs next" way of tidying and revert to the blitz a room method!

Sorry all ... I need to count down the days, or else I do NOTHING!! With days there looking at me it does make me move a little faster.. and believe me the pain I am in at the moment it isn't very fast!!I have to put the date too because I forget what day it is otherwise

morning all!:santa2:

please keep on with count down pigpen - it makes me want to scream in desperation but it also gets my bum moving!

today I'll be finishing what I started yesterday - seemed to end up doing lots of side tracked jobs like loading car for recycling bank trip/ 1/2 clearing shed of packaging rubbish but it was all stuff that had to be done.

today
finish hall
finish ironing
finish drying clothes from yesterday
clear stairs of debris
clear small hall
clear path in DD2's bedroom to attic door
get decorations out
put up decorations
put boxes away

I feel a bit more motivated after yesterday, just clearing the kitchen sides makes me feel more positive/less depressed about the state of the house - funny how getting one job done can make such a huge difference in a room

In 2 weeks time it will be Christmas EVE :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Plans for today are:

• Finish the washing
  • White
  • Bedding
  • Mixed
• Make beds up
• Reclaim the kitchen from dishes & from me baking later
• Some minor baking as there isn't any room in the freezer :rotfl:
• Some Christmas Jobs (which I'm working on now)
• Christmas cards with DD
• ironing (will be done by OH as well)
• School preperations (lunches, bags etc)
• Evening meal - Chicken Supreme & rice, followed by icecream from Aldi (sore throat reasons...honest )

Other than that I'm not worried. Right, need to go and print somethings out. Later :wave:

Evenin everyone, hope you've all had a nice Sunday

Right list from last night, I find easier to make then with my jottings from the day

[STRIKE]Lunch made and flasks filled to take to track (saves buying there)
Kids dressed and fed
Boot filled with Moto X stuff and picnic etc
Collect quad bikes
2 loads of muddy washing when we get home [/STRIKE]

Seeing as we are back early just added to it, starting this lot now, ish! Probably brave considering it's 3pm and I have the kids at home on my own tonight.

[STRIKE]Clean washing machine for next load (so don't get mud on everything)
Bake a cake, or maybe 2
Boil the veg I got cheap last night for freezer[/STRIKE]
Sort freezer and list what's in it so I can do meal plan easier
Meal plan for week
kids homework with them [STRIKE]then cards[/STRIKE]did cards myself, but DS too ill to do homework
[STRIKE]
Iron school clothes for the week
Sweep sitting room inc under sofa/table etc and mop
Clean vivarium glass and mirror[/STRIKE]
Sort & pack the presents & cards I need to post next week
Sort and pack eBay items
[STRIKE]Washing up that needs doing & put away, shine sink and drainer
Quick and easy tea, pizza or burgers sounds a good idea
Clean mop head & cloths
Kids bathed and to bed, before 11pm grrrr!!!
Put washing away when putting them to bed
Sort school things for tomorrow

Collapse in the bath after all that (wash the bath when I get out)[/STRIKE]
ended up with a shower as DS is poorly but washed bath several times as keep having to shower him off

DS1 started poorly about 7pm and now DS2 isn't well, so have extra loads of washing etc to do, just had to clean bed frames etc aswell, don't think I did too bad considering. Would have got it all done if they weren't poorly, but they come first. Whatevers left will have to get done tomorrow I suppose.

kscour

today
finish hall - just need to vacumn now
[STRIKE]finish ironing [/STRIKE]:j :T :j only took 5 hours!:eek:
[STRIKE]finish drying clothes from yesterday[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]clear stairs of debris[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]clear small hall[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]clear path in DD2's bedroom to attic door[/STRIKE] - to be fair DD's did this for me!
[STRIKE]get decorations out[/STRIKE]
put up decorations - left until tomorrow
put boxes away - left until tomorrow
Also added sand to new fish tank - never let OH take DD's to fish place again!

Hope everyone else had a great day - I'm off for a nice long bath now.

kscour - I am with you on the fish! No one else ever feeds them, or indeed cleans them out. I do recommend the cleaning vaccuumy thingy, about £5 but it does work well.

Today the chain will either collapse or we will exchange. We are supposed to be moving this Thursday - but I am a long way past believing it.

Jobs for the day - bearing in mind we have no electricity between 10 and 3

OH take rubble and contents of bin to the tip (mm, nice and whiffy)
Recycling box out so new people don't inherit numerous empty tins of stripe
Pack rest of top floor and transfer boxes to summer house
Clean top floor and wash carpet
More packing on first floor with a view to washing carpets asap
Ironing - enough to get us through to fantasy move date
If we do exchange - insurance, assurance, book van, arrange to collect garage keys, book day off work and extra nursery.

Draw up Christmas list in anticipation of ordering it all wednesday for delivery to new place.
