Morning Flybabes, How are you all. It was my first week back at work, so didn't do much flying this week. I have saved the mission emails from each day to do over the weekend.

So here is my list for today:

3. [strike]Hang up washing in machine[/strike]
4. [strike]Put on load of washing[/strike]
5. [strike]Hang up that washing when done[/strike]
6. [strike]Package up books to post[/strike]
7. [strike]Go to post office before 12 to post books[/strike]
8. [strike]Go to morrisons to buy bits for tea tonight as well as bread, milk & ham[/strike]
9. [strike]Clean out rabbit[/strike]
10. [strike]Take out rubbish[/strike]
11. [strike]Take out recycling[/strike]
12. Vacuum living room
13. 15 mins declutter spare room
14. Clear out cupboard under sink
15. [strike]Wash Up[/strike]
16. Cook dinner
17. Wash up (again!)
18. Attack hallway cupboard
19. [strike]Take stuff to charity shop[/strike]
20. Remember to relax!!

Today I will really use my timer, no longer than 15 mins on any task. I will try and remember baby steps and not get myself stressed out about all this (will keep repeating this to myself all day and it might sink in!!)

Not doing too badly so far, still a few things to do before I can get on to the relaxing bit, but i am getting there. Just going to sit down for 10 minutes as have just got back from town, then on with the list!

Today I have given the kitchen and bathroom a good going over, vacuumed front room, cleaned and tidied ds2's room (with his help )

Well, i havnt done much today - i overslept (my children normally wake me, but didnt today!!) and although i have swished the bathroom, cleaned the kitchen, and done all the washing (washed and hung up) thats about it.
Will be (well, hope to) whipping the hoover around upstairs and downstairs later, but luckily the house is still clean and tidy (thanks to all this flying we are doing!!!)
Just dont seem to be able to motivate myself today!!!

Kitchen now completely finished and thoroughly disinfected. Two loads of washing done, fridge cleaned, one load of washing drying.

Moggins hope DD is getting better. I'm impressed with what you've achieved today! :T
Any luck with the coloured chopping boards? Have been looking my self but no joy.

Chardonnay hope you pick up a bit. Pretty sure this weather doesn't help but hang in there!:D

I've been shopping today, delivered DS and DD to various destinations, cooked a chicken for Mum and Dad coming for dinner tomorrow and got loads of washing done which is now filling three clothes horses and the pulley!:j

DH helped me do the top of DD wardrobe:eek: VERY dusty!

Going to friends for dinner tonight so will have a chill out evening after flying all week:beer:

So pleased that the house is staying clean and tidy but do need to tackle some cupboards!

Have a good night everyone

I think I've seen different coloured ones in Wilkinsons. I'm pretty sure a fella in front of me before Christmas had about 3 different ones.


As for flying... All my dailys are done. The uniforms were washed yesterday so no washing for me today Only need to do the ironing now. :eek::o No point in attempting to hoover as nowhere really needs hoovering...except that kitchen floor :o:o Will attempt to get it done tonight...but cleaning it properly is one of those jobs that best done when I'm the only one in and on my way out :rotfl:

So we've been to the big Marks & Spencers at Gemini Retail Park and spent our Christmas vouchers :j I am now the happy owner of a set of Stainless Steel pans that are suitable for our hob:j. The old ones (battered, not suitable for our hob and no longer non-stick..oh and have I mentioned they're erm... 7 years old?) have gone in the bin straight away, except for the biggest. That one will go when I buy a stockpot We also bought 3 cookery books...2 of which OH picked and said he might have a go at cooking some of the meals :eek::j:j:j:T:T:T Would be nice if he could cook something that isn't a toasted sandwich, fried egg/bacon or bugers/sausage/bacon on the George Forman :D

I'm wondering whether all this flying is starting to rub off on OH as he's washing dishes almost every night after our evening meal Need to go and put DD to bed.

Wow! Sounds like you've all been busy today! Well done moggins. :j

After my successes of the morning and then 5 hours in what turned out to be a very busy shop I'm about ready to sleep!

Before work I finished off by emptying WM, adding another load and watered all the plants in the house.

Since getting home from work I've got washed and changed and am now slouching in front of the computer.

Tomorrow I need to give the living room a quick swipe and the bathroom too. I didn't get to meal plan today so will need to do that for the week and do any necessary shopping! Then it's school work, a visit to my parents and the allotment and then dinner at a friends. Phew!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend all.

Sundays jobs are - as little as physically possible.

Try to catch up on any little jobs not done, check that you are ready to fly on Monday morning, lunches made, uniforms ironed etc etc.

If you have to do anything try to do it as early in the day as possible so you have the rest of the day to relax.

That's a relief that there's not too much for tomorrow! I couldn't log on last night so haven't done today's jobs so at least I have time to catch up now. Will do them first thing in the morning so that I have the rest of the day free....well, to entertain children and study so not exactly free xx
