Weekly Flylady Thread 25th July 2011

MrsChaos

Sending you bestest successful interview vibes, jue.

Blackberries are steeping in vodka with some special sugar, I've made a few jars of jam and have also frozen a small bag for a crumble sometime.

Laundry is progressing nicely, courtesy of the dry weather. I've emptied the DW and set it going again, cleaned 2/3 of the fridge and put most of this morning's shopping away. Also flung lots of stuff from the kitchen.

Work again tomorrow, followed by some flying. My classroom looks lots better already, but I could easily spend another week on my storeroom, the office and preparation. DS1 has requested pie for tea (I have new spuds and fresh veg to go with it), so I may pop to costco's with DS2 after school. He's bored because NNs have gone on holiday.

Night all. x

Hiya, back from hols and other various exploits. Got a major washing mountain to contend with due to holiday washing, camping trips and multiple wet beds (kids, not me!) Onwards and upwards. I really really really need to get beyond the basic cleaning to more organising and decluttering. oh well - behind this week already!

Morning

Sorry for missing yesteray, but was on my way to Merthyr Tydfil to visit a customer and got caught on the M4 near J24 in the traffic troubles there, finally got to my customer 45 mins late, but I had rung ahead, coming back as a nightmare, as everyone was avoiding the M4, and heading up the heads of the valley road, after miles of detours got back via Gloucester and Oxford for about 5pm or so........

So as a result nothing got done, except dinner cooking and putting wheelie bin out, as I was just too tired.

Greenbee~ hope you start to feel better soon.

Jue~ good luck

Hugs /sticks etc to everyone else.
