Weekly Flylady Thread 11th April 2011

Well so far day is being wasted as one girl doesnt want to go to beach as doesnt travel well so the other is sulking. Have offered to take into town instead but DD is sulking (again) because she doesnt have any money left. Well if she could identify where she had spent all of her £65 money and hadnt cut the straps of the school shoes then I would have bought her new ones she needed yesterday instead of her having to buy them and she would have had money. In a minute I will say stuff them and get on with what I want to do :mad:

Only flying thing left to do is HHI which I'll do in a mo after a mooch on here and a cuppa

All rest of lists are done and dusted, then planted some more sweet pea seeds, cabbage seeds, lettuce seeds and nasturtians. Need some more seed trays now then can sow a few more flower seeds next weekend!

I've been working on school stuff since my last post and have decided that it's got to have priority today. Other things will be slotted in as breaks. Food first though, as my stomach is rumbling.

Plan for the weekend (not necessarily in that order):
laundry - just waiting for last few bits from DS2, but doing cleaning cloths at the moment
DW
[STRIKE]get DS1 up - WIP[/STRIKE]
make DS1 tidy space at bottom of loft stairs
2 HHCs each in bedroom done 1, bathroom done 1, DS2's room done 1, back yard/garden
school stuff - STARTED :T, but this will take AGES!
HW with DS2
phone hotel re DH's reunion weekend - need to phone back on Monday
car stuff (please fling fluffy mule if this is still on the list by teatime) - can't do anything until friend is back on Wednesday
bake a cake or two
lunch
tea
sort through DS2's clothes to see what he still needs
find out when friend's son is going back to turkey so I can bake twinks for him to take

All my washing is dry, folded and put away. Dinner cooked (microwaved but from scratch rather than ready meal). I was about to go outside and read but I'm waiting for the big fat pigeon to finish the seed and squeeze back out of the bird table first. If you hear a loud pop you'll know he's out!

Mine packed up after doing the back yesterday. I'm ignoring it and will try again later in the week.

Yogurt pots, loo roll inners, egg boxes, shoe box lids, cut down cardboard boxes, trays from supermarket f&v if you shop in such places, cut down washed out plastic bottles, washed tins... you don't need seed trays, just a bit of creativity
