Ljd - thank heavens you're ok, if a bit bruised. Take it easy hun, you've had a nasty shock.
Sounds to me as though everyone has been very busy - so don't forget that an important part of this FLYing is to pamper yourself!! (Finally Loving Yourself)
Everyone has worked so hard, so please take time out to take care of yourselves - and that 'specially goes to Moggins. You will all be more usefull with your batteries fully charged, so be sure to schedule in some 'me time'.

Well, done well again today. Ive sorted DDs bedroom, swished the bathroom and toilets, swished the kitchen, one load from the WM done, dried and put away, hot spot tackled and sorted, bathroom fittings put up in the new toilet (at last!!!) and have hoovered all downstairs!!! All i need to do now, is wait for the DW to finish, so i can empty it, and finish making the packed lunches (just the sandwiches to do now).
Have a friend coming around in a minute, so will be having a a sit down, chat and a glass of the red stuff!!!
Will pop back later to see whats in store for tomorrow!!!0 -

Today is the master bedroom (AGAIN??) and landing
Dailies - plus
Strip those beds, wash bedding, turn mattress, dust, hoover, collect any clothes that belong in the wash, general tidy of bedroom... my room is still tidy from last time.. we only did it last week!! I don't make that much mess!! I'll have a sort of the boys beds instead, they are pretty nasty.. I cleaned the room last week but didn't do the beds.. DD1's bed needs changing too so I will do hers.
Declutter landing and hoover... It will be a case of little bits on here.. it is really bad.. maybe one box of carp at a time?? I have had boxes on there since we moved in 18 months ago.. unopened and I don't even know what is in them! There won't be any vacuuming going on on the landing today it will take me longer than that to find the floor!! I opened 2 boxes.. and unearthed a HUGE pile of VHS videos.. anyone want any lol?? There are LOADS of Disney ones. We don't even have a video player!!.. we don't even have a TV!!!!!!! SO, I have spent all morning listing them for sale on various parenting sites (pm if you want a gander) in between chasing the rabbits back into their cage as shortie keeps letting them out!! .. IMP!! That DONE I am going to tackle something in the kitchen.. and I MAY even do some food!
Damp down any hotspots.

It was really unpleasant out on the roads today, but I ventured out as I just didn't want to miss a day of the course. It was more interesting than yesterday, but I'm still shattered!
Done the dailies and quick tidy up around the ground floor, also sorted out the aired washing and put in bedrooms.
I 'm home tomorrow, and will do a quick blitz on the kitchen and bedroom. At least having done quite a bit over the past two weeks it is much quicker and easier.It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be0 -
Morning Denise, hope you find your motivation soon, all that talk of BBQs makes me so jealous as the weather over here is so bloomin' awful!
Have done much more, and DS2s tidied his room up before he came back down, and found somewhere for his shoes and put them neatly away, so shocked, this FL thing must be rubbing off on him! He's usually a good helper but never does it without being bribed or helped! Pleased of course as it was spotless before he came home and would have been gutted if I had to pick it all up again.One day I might be more organised...........

Okay - it's decision time and I am in two minds so get your opinion in fast!
Do you want tomorrow to be an easy relaxing day with a little more to do on Saturday or would everyone prefer to work their socks off tomorrow and take the weekend off?
I have to take my parents shopping tomorrow which takes me out of the house for 5 hours but I will go with the majority decision. You have until 10pm to cast your vote whilst I watch the Food programme.Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

I need to do mine on a Friday unfortunately as the kids are at school so it's easier to get things done. I will work from my own lists if there isn't one, easy either way. I'm watching the food programme too
while sorting socks
One day I might be more organised...........

I'm going to have to go with having more to do on Friday also as one of the reasons for me doing this was to enable me to have more family time on a w/end :cool:0
