LW~ sounds like Ted is a right little character, it is lovely weather to be out in the garden as well, lets hope it holds. How long is Ted with you?

Only for the weekend; he's due to be collected at 15:30 on Monday.

I have to go into town to pick up some meds in a bit, and I have an audiologist appointment tomorrow, but I just have to stuff his kong toy with treats and leave the radio playing Classic FM, and he'll be fine.:o

He's a rescue, so we don't know his age, other that that he's over 6 years old (his owners got him in 2005).

Definitely crossing fingers for a fine weekend; he adores being in the garden, and as it's all fenced in, we don't have to watch like a hawk.:T

How did you get on MOAM? In my HHC I managed to wash lunch dishes, declutter small table in LR (hotspot) and dust top of shelf unit, took a call from chemist, straightened throws, wiped 2 items in loo, was surprised by a small blue tit like bird sitting on kitchen windowsill.

Vanilla Happy Birthday to Rhys

Mumof2 Hope you feel better soon

Many thanks LW; yes I think we could well be long lost twins as I'm right with you on that!


Been out in the garden, weeded the veg patch and got rid of lots of weeds in the front garden too - we were out for about 45 mins in the sun. I let the chooks out too and the dog was with us so we had a lovely time.

Next:
Drink
Fetch Z from school - snack time/homework etc
Think of something wonderful to make with the chicken I need to use up in the fridge

LW~ have fun at the audiologist! if you are off to Stoke Manderville they are great, never been to the MK ones.

More clearing up of the workshop done, goodness help the lads if they mess it up again, they will not be getting fluffy mules chucked at them, but something a lot harder!, and yes they should poss be clearing up their mess, but they earn the company more money by being out on site, rather than in a workshop, so I do it for them sometimes, it is normally classed as 'rainy day work' but we have had no serious rain for ages.

Hi there, I've just discovered FlyLady and I was wondering if I could join you all
OH and I live in a 1bed flat with 2 cats and we seem to be constantly fighting a losing battle. I've started but I feel I need somewhere to [STRIKE]vent[/STRIKE] chat and as I post on other threads here I thought I'd search you out. :wave:

Hi PepPop, lovely to meet you and you're more than welcome to join us - here have a :xmastree: so our meeter and greeter can spot you.

Evening all - hope everyone is ok?

So far I have washed our bedding, and then put it on the line to dry when I got home. Children are fed, and I have had my standard OH away dinner of toast :cool:

Need to get the WM and DW on, plus find stuff in the freezer for tomorrow.

Planning on early bed, but I want to spend an hour tidying our room first and sorting some of the paperwork mountain that has gathered on the chaise longue over the last few months. SS1 moving out has meant that the pantry that lived in our bedroom has moved back to the kitchen, and it will be nice to have our room back to tidy and de-cluttered.
