Weekly Flylady Thread 9th May 2011

ajmoney

Morning guys, yesterday was really good although the committal was a struggle, OH picked the music and the words were lovely and so they set everyone off. OH finally had a slight teary moment yesterday so I am glad some emotion is coming out gradually. Once again I spent the rest of the day laughing with the rest of the family and then towards the end of the evening we reminisced (sp?). I am marrying into such a wonderful family, some who over the last few weeks have also become amazing friends. Neither of us slept very well last night but I have left OH sleeping now as he definately needs it. We are off to see the family that are still up here this afternoon and I have asked if he wants to go via where his mum's memories are on the way for a bit of comfort, will see what he thinks this morning.

Glad a had a whizz around the rest of the house on Wednesday as loads has been crossed off the list, just some extras on there. Think OHs aunt and uncle are stopping by and the house is nice and tidy

AJ It sounds like you are going into a lovely family, that can smile & laugh and look at the positives in life (and death) It is good that OH is letting some emotion show - why do men find this so difficult??!

Pigpen ((big hugs)) I hope your weekend works out for you

Vanilla ((big hugs)) for you aswell.

Good morning peeps

I don't think I will be doing much flying to day, as Fridays are a busy day. DH is away all weekend, so I will potter about then. DD has a friend staying tonight, so they can revise (;):rotfl:) so I have told her that they can walk the dog when they get in, as I won't have been able to do it. DS wants to buy more fish for the new tank, & DH has left some money (take away tonight then! )

If I am lucky, I may get some washing done!

DW been loaded and switched on, our bed has been stripped and bedding in wm. All animals fed and watered.

I've rung hubby to see if the doctor has arrived yet, he's not there yet. Now hubby is away with the OT to cook a fry, he seems in good form and i think he's got used to being in the hospital. That may cause a few problems when he comes home to the mad house.

Right cuppa and then i'll get the kitchen sorted...

Hi everyone...MIA yet again but some flying has been done...will up date at the weekend...( gives me time to do some more before fluffy mules come my way hehe )

Was out all day yesterday as took LO and BabyD to White Post Farm...they had a ball...did stop on the way back and pick up my new iron and did the main food shop.

Toddlers today so out of here by 10.45..I have 2 WM on line and another in machine
DW done

Out tonight to see my favourite rock cover band and DS1 is playing on stage with them...he plays bass and is doing Paranoid....he is so nervous....
Need to think of a quick tea.

DD1 has dropped out of her college course...not too pleased about it as she was doing so well.....but she has found a part-time job in the space of 10 days :j

Have eaten half a frog...ok its the easy half but its a start...cant do the rest till next week...blinking hospitals ....

Glad the funeral went as well as possible..ajmoney

Pigpen...I really want to smack your ex...poor LOs xx

AJ, glad it went as well as could be expected yesterday. His family sound so lovely.

Vanilla, it's good that DH is settling into the hospital; hopefully they can help him until he's well enough to come back with you and the kids.

Anyone fancy a HHC 9.45 - 10.15? Feel free to tag on as I won't come back to the computer before I start as I always get distracted !

Thanks for replies, sorry can't remember names

DD & boyfriend need a big kick up their backsides, so this will be done over the weekend!

DS has had type 1 diabetes for 11 years (he is now 14), for the last few years he has not coped well with it at all well. Comments made at school by other kids doesn't help, combined with lots of time off for feeling ill, has all amounted to him not wanting to be there. He starts his GCSE's in Sept so really want to try and crack this phobia before the summer hols.

Today's list:

[STRIKE]Email DS school about Monday[/STRIKE]
Apply for 2 teaching assistant jobs on line
Hang out washing (gone a bit dull though)
Empty DW and re-fill
Makes some fairy cakes
Hoover upstairs
Clean bathroom & en-suite (en-suite is a huge frog more like a toad!)
Put weed killer on front garden gravel, it looks awful!

Will be happy to get that lot done, I am waiting in for my new ariel to be fitted and set top box delivered :T

Have a fab day everyone, happy flying.

Pixie

Hope that thigs go ok at OH's parents and you have enough food to see you through.

Vanilla glad to hear that OH is improving and Im sure with the help of your lists he'll soon settle back into family life

AJ Glad to hear it went well yesterday, it sounds like everyone treated it as a celebration of Roy's life.
