Weekly Flylady Thread 25th April 2011

WarriorPrincess

Hmm... it was all going so well - then ds broke up for the Easter hol. I guess I've discovered I can do the flylady thing during terms. During the hols a whirlwind tidy before vistors arrive should be the plan ... cos it's what actually happens, so no point planning anything else!

Doing a quick once over later on (cos a visitor's due!) ... then back on the Flyladying next week.

Welcome Chris761! I am a newbie too, and I am feeling really motivated to get things sorted Good luck with the baby - keep us posted! Put your feet up & take it easy (easier said than done with no.3, i know!)

I have put out the bins, washed the food bin & had breakfast. i am going to feed the dog, then go upstairs & strip the bed & start from there. i will let you know how I get on. School finishes at 2pm today, after a wedding party - boys should be full of sugar & climbing the walls! Joy! (at least they go home at 5-5.30!)

Yesterday was a wash out on flying. A very busy and stressful day. I did a bit of tidying, but didn't finish, so I'll add yesterday's list to todays and hope I get a bit more done. If not, well there's always next week. Did make a lovely homemade pasta sauce though (tomatoes, red pepper, onion, creme fraiche) to use up the ends of things. Enough for another day too, so that should save some time another day.

Morning all.

Probably not much flying to be done here today as I'm out shortly to the solicitors and then the bank with DF about Flower and Gamers trust funds.

Just thought I'd pop on and let you know how it went at the docs - I know some of you are as soft as me and worry about folk, even if you've never met em
Well in short ... the damn lumpy dissapeared today! Doc couldnt find it!
Day before yesterday it was baked bean size.
Anyhoo she agreed with me, that it's probably hormonal, have to wait and see till after AF's been but she thinks it'll dissapear or perhaps come back next month for the same amount of time. :eek: if I'm worried to go back, but she thinks it's fine and the misscarriages might just have caused me to have "active br3@sts" ohhhhkay then, never heard of that. Hope it's gone for good. :j:j:j:j

Right gonna declutter some healthy snacks as apparently I'm having lunch out. Must pick healthy choices :rotfl:

So the list for today is some laundry, catch up on the stairs which I didnt do yesterday and probably just S&S the bathroom.

This was my "blitz the bathroom" week this week so have spent a bit longer in there but it is gleaming and I've almost got rid of all the mould. I may have OCD as I have just used an old toothbrush head on the electric toothbrush on the grout...it works and takes a fraction of the time.

Nixie, that's good news but you were very right to check up on it.

Hugs, sticks and spoons to everyone else, I'm so pants at reading everyone's posts it's untrue so I'm just really sticking to Flying - what I have to do/have done/HHCs etc as that's what keeps me going.

Anyone fancy a HHC at 10.30 once I've had a coffee?

Here's my list:

Thursday - Bedroom , landing, bathroom and spare/chimps rooms!
Level Two
Put the floordrobe in the wardrobe
Give the bathroom a speedy once over.. slop bleach down the loo, wipe over the sink/bath/shower pick up laundry.. no more than 15 minutes.. super quick.. GO!!
Level Three

Rummage ALL the junk from one shelf and sort through it..
15 minutes sort out of the landing gibble.. see if you can find something to rehome!

2 x COs for Gary
Vacuum right through
Ironing
Shopping coming between 1-2
Warfarin – 9mg

washing all done and on the line ....or so I thought until I saw DS's gym bag in the hall! - Goodness only knows how long his swimming stuff has been there!

Fingers crossed for good weather please - our school lunch today is in the form of a street party in the playground!

DD1 is now up and breakfasted - she was late to bed cos she was waiting for the new Harry Potter trailer to be released.....

I'll join your HHC Mumof2 - will be doing random decluttering around the house, rather than sticking to a list.
