DONE!!!:T
I've just had my first morning of following the Flylady list properly and am gobsmacked at how much I've accomplished in just a couple of hours of following a list rather than flitting about. Unfortunately I have to go to work now, but OH has just phoned to say he won't be in til 10.30pm so will have time to clear the window sills and maybe clean the oven then, just so I can say I have finished the list.
And the best bit is, my house looks AMAZING!!! I have never seen it so clean and tidy, even when it was on the market!! So THANK YOU!!!:D£2 Coin Savers Club £14 :j (joined 18/2/06)0 -
I'm in with a much better start to the week:j OH home for 2 days so hopefully when I get home from work he will have started on the living room (I'll report back when I have gone behind him and re do everything)
