Flylady Challenge - New Year, New You

susieb

Hi
Your dailies list is things you need to do everyday like a load of washing, load dishwasher, make packed lunches, and if like me youve got dogs, then hoover and pick up poo (from outside unless I'm very unlucky LOL)Thanks for todays list moggins, will finish the study, would have done it yesterday but decided to do the household accounts instead as hubbu got a bonus and I managed to overpay the mortgage by £500, so very pleased I did that, as my other new year new me, is to try and reduce the mortgage as much as we can, having just bought a new house and reverted back to a 25 year mortgage, we are trying to pay it off in 10 years, to leave us mortgage free at same time as if we hadnt moved.

I think my worst hotspot is my bedroom - it's too easy to dump all rubbish there for distribution to other rooms.

This is me as well :rotfl: my bedroom is becoming such a hotspot I almost can't get in there!

Hope you friend starts to improve soon, my Dad has a heart attack (very mild one fortunately) 11 years ago and that was the last time he smoked.

Don't think I'll ever be as good as most of you here, but I do read the thread and take inspiration from it. I don't post as I rarely ( no lets be honest, NEVER, )achieve as much as any of you. But it is making a difference, so thankyou for that.:D

I feel the same and whilst I have not kept to the daily challenges I have made progress which I would not have done without everyone on here. It just feels good to be with like minded messy/disorganised friends! :rotfl: We will all get there together.

Morning ladies

All the best to your friend Churchmouse x

Hmmmmm just got up so brain not kicked into gear properly yet, so I'm not sure what I'll be tackling today, will do moggins list though (which is becoming a God send cause I tend to view it as being told what to do - so I do it ) I've got to brace myself for a looooooooooong walk to the shops today, desperately need dosh out the cashpoint so I can charge up my gas/elec meters and I can't put the TD on until I've done that, so that's probably gonna be my first point of call, after I've finished my brew of course, I'll check back later

Have a good one folks!

My big chore for this weekend is to get all the washing done, folded, ironed and put away!

Do weekly shopping
keep kitchen tidy
hoover the downstairs

I just woke up myself so I'm having me a cup of coffee first.
I don't expect to see the teenagers before noon.

DS must tidy his room today or there will be no going out with his friends tonight.

Happy flying ladies!!

Good luck Becca with getting all that washing done, the kids wouldn't know what to wear first, their wardrobes overflowing. Don't forget to fling..:rotfl:

Speak soon.

Hi everyone, today is definately a catch up day. I've already hoovered the lounge, and put the TD on. Next I'm going to tackle living room hot spots, tidy kitchen table. Then I'll start the ironing, which isn't too bad, but would be nice to get uniforms done etc. I'll also do any other jobs that come my way.

Uniforms done last night, and ready to put away. The laundry bag was empty for about 5 minutes...:rolleyes:

Have been waiting for OH to finish breakfast so I can hoover downstairs!

DS2 came home yeaterday with his wrist bandaged - he'd slipped over on Thursday, and told me he hurt himself, but I did the usual brisk, 'oh, I'm sure you'll be fine for school'. He then fell over again in football, was sent to the school nurse who strapped it up, and said he'd strained it. Am once again wearing my 'I'm a bad mother badge'.:o Making amends by taking him downtown in a minute to raid his savings account as he's finally decided he'd like to buy himself an ipod.

Lovely sunshine here. Have a great day everyone!

Morning all.

Happy flying.

The only things I've got to do today are the dailies, hoover right through and iron the uniforms. I'm going to get all that done this morning so I can spend all afternoon sitting on the sofa watching a good movie and eating a box of chocolates
