Flylady Challenge - New Year, New You

Punky

Morning Flybabes!

I can empathise with your friend Moggins - eveything makes me feel sick at the moment and I'm only about 7 weeks pregnant too. I'm feeling really sorry for myself and very lethargic still. I can just about manage to keep the house tidy thanks to flying for a while now but every room needs a good clean. I felt like this during my first pregnancy but I had no children to look after, worked full time which meant the house didn't get so messy, it was a smaller house and DH helped more - ho hum :rolleyes: .

I have managed to get right on top of my hotspot though - the office - which is great. Tidy desk and you can see the floor. I'm right up to date with filing and just have my 'to do' pile to work through.

This morning I've hoovered round the entire downstairs and will get started on the conservatory / dining room after a rest. I've also built a mammoth railway for DS and friend

Happy flying.

MOGGINS - I hope you don't mind me asking this. We've decided that i'm going to be a SAHM but we still want our kids to go into nursery for a couple of hours a week. We've not lived long in Gloucester and we don't know this area at all. Do you know of any decent nurseries in the area? I'm going to see the Bupa run Teddies nursery at the Virgin active place on the Barnwood roundabout this afternoon - it looks quite good! Any help would be much appreciated!!!!

I'm not really well up on nurseries hun as it's been some time since I had any long term dealings with one but if you want to PM me with where you are living then I'll try to help if I can.

i did the kitchen list this morning whilst the kettle was on and the soap drawer was soaking - the water from that was perfect for wiping down! lovely to just need to do a quick wipe as it was properly cleaned last week - here's to keeping on top of it!

Looks like I’ve hardly done anything, spent my this morning playing with ds (17 months) and all flying done with his assistance :eek:, trying to set good habits from the start.
I really need to achieve as much of today’s mission as possible as it all needs doing. I have 50 mins before I need to get ready for work, will set my timer and do my best, hopefully ds will stay asleep so I can fly.

Will try to post accomplishments before bed.

I need a hug.
Sorted out friends computer yesterday and was feeling great about that. Then we went to pub and I ended up depressed and upset the pub landlord. Hubby not happy with me either!! He went to work today without saying goodbye. I can be so stupid sometimes!!! :mad:
Eventually managed to shower and get dressed to shoes. Then had Tesco delivery and have actually managed to put a chili in the slow cooker. But still feeling low. :sad:

Hiya
I've done the kitchen cupboard doors (dread to think when they were last done!). Also found a bowl at the back of the fridge that had something white and green in (hope it wasn't something my hubby was saving!). The kitchen is sorted and just off to do the dining room now.

My son's birthday is today and he got a card and book token from a friend who's daughters birthday is tomorrow! Agghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! How can I have forgotten! I've no excuse either as my mum got me one of those birthday planners where you can put the birthday cards in a pocket for each month. So, i'll do the dining room and then sort out birthdays for this year.

Have a fun day xx
