i don't think i could cope with a whole week so will continue one day at a time - sometimes that is even too much!!!! I know everyone different tho
but i am on babysteps still - am off to do nighttime swish in kitchen and clear table hotspot -0 -
If the weekly thread goes ahead I'll happily nudge everyone who needs one each day with the list as an email or PM, I know when I first started a weekly list would have been much more daunting. This thread has helped me so if I can help anyone else will be more than willing to.
Trying to get the troublesome twosome to sleep at the minute, they are playing yoyos again, as in up and down the stairs. Need to clean up the kitchen but not starting until they are settled!One day I might be more organised...........

Well today I did absolutley nothing from my list.. no washing (EEK!!!) no cleaning, no flinging and no picking up. My backroom is still a swamp.. BUT.. I went out for dinner with my mother, I stayed in bed until half past 12 (and I'm STILL tired!!!) I haven't vacuumed or wiped or dusted anything. I have collected some paint colour cards so DH & I can decorate our bedroom.. starting with me.. sanding the walls!!!!.. 10ft high ceilings, 16 ft square room.. I am REALLY not looking forward to that!

( Well not yet,too much floordrobe ) but had forgotten about those bags you can get that suck the air out ,,,,,,,i think they would be perfect for me
Those bags you suck the air out of are good for storing things like clothes and bedding, they sell them in shops like Wilkinsons etc usually and on eBay (search for Vacuum Storage) I0 -
I do agree with you Scaredy Cat, as I have only been doing the flylady challenge for a couple of weeks. I would like a weekly scedule just so I know what I am doing if I don't get a chance to get on the computer. I'm off to finish my nighttime routine....how good are we!!!!!!
Goodnight everyone!

Hello all,
It's been over a week since I've posted - mostly because I've not done anything to report and I've been shamed into hiding.
I started on my new allotment last weekend so did nothing in the house and then spent the rest of this week struggling to get through work as I was poolie from being out in the fresh air! Ha!
I've just about been managing my dailies but have been on the allotment all day again today and after making soup at 10pm last night to fill the flask to keep me going for the day I've got a mountain of washing up to do!
I've promised myself I'll only spend 2 hours down there tomorrow morning and then I need to get back on top of the flat and get all my marking etc done for school!
Can anyone give me a list of key things you think I should focus on that I've missed this week?
Thanks in advance!
Hope you're all well. ((((HUGS)))) to all that have needed them this week.Wandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...0 -
Well have been a bit poorly with this cold over the past 2 days so have been going to bed early - hence the lack of posts from me.
However have cleaned the cooker inside and out and its now sparking and ditto for the fridge - they both look and smell brand new :j
Kept up with my dailies (except skipped ironing yesterday) but did more today so I will catch up with that tomorrow - funny how 1 hours ironing a day helps me keep on top of it yet I used to wait til it was a huge pile and then spend 3-4 hours which I hated - having it as part of the dailies really helps.
Didnt manage the computer desk as too washed out but may try to do that tomorrow.
Happy flying all0 -
Oh dear, have done nothing today, apart from put the DW on just now!!!!
Have an excuse tho, my sister and her family have been here all day, so didnt want to clean around them!!! Actually, it was nice that the house was looking so clean when they got here, i didnt have to rush around finding 'hiding places' for odd things like normal, so this flylady is working well.
Anyway, that means lots to do tomorrow, so hope moggins will be kind with Sundays list.
Take care everyone xxx0 -
Successful (ish) day today. Vacuumed house (not moving furniture though), have done 4 loads of washing and 2 lots of tumble drying. DW has been on once and emptied and is now on again!! Have done most of the ironing, swished and swiped the bathroom and kitchen and put away ironing (from about 2-3 days ago
.)
Am now going to spend some time on here before collapsing into bed!!!!20p Saver Club #33 60p/£100
