Weekly Flylady Thread 12th September 2011

serena

:hello:to all my flylady friends!

I've just caught up with the thread - very slow start to the day here as DS2 was at a friend's 18th, and was late home. He staggered down for water and paracetamol, and went straight back to bed. Am assuming it was a good party.

It was fancy dress, who you wanted to be when you grew up.So I had the fun task off dropping off Superman, Spiderman, a lad in a wetsuit, Top Cat, and a hula hula girl. Bit worried about the hula girl - his dad's the vicar...:cool::D

The kitchen was done yesterday then I went out for lunch and shoe shopping with DD - excellent afternoon.

I'm off to hang out washing as the sun is shining, and as soon as the sleeping bodies have gone from the living room floor, I'll finish downstairs. I'll go get the bedlinen and stick in the wash I think while I'm waiting...

Love and hugs, especially for toots, lady-liberty and lamewolf, and those flyladies who are feeling poorly today - adamantine, and Triker I think I saw?

OK, first lot of church toy bags turfed out, sorted & repacked - on a roll with this so will do next lot tomorrow, and should end up with a list of what needs replacing, so can do that next week :j

WM loaded, going to drop a couple of bits off, and keep going...

jetbag

OK, I have made a start.
In my HHC I
loaded & started DW
Put first load of washing on
did poo patrol in garden (need to disinfect patio later)
emptied veg peelings bucket into compost bin
swept & mopped floors in Kitchen, Hall & downstairs loo (can't do utility room floor yet cos it is covered in piles of dirty washing waiting is turn for the WM)

Think I will do another HHC at 10 whilst I am on a roll, then take dogs for a walk.

hey all

Hope your all good - Love to piggers and toots..

Day off today and trying to do a million jobs at once, and have completed nothing.

- Have emptied the bookcase of videos in the hallway, one box is completely packed and under the stairs. The other is upstairs in the hall, but have now run out of packing tape.
- Finished packing a box in the spare room, again need more packing tape to seal it and get it away.
- Wrapped ebay parcels, but havent taken them to post office yet.
- Half emptied kitchen cupboards, half filled a bin bag with some stuff, packed some other bits - only keeping out what I need to use between now and then.

think ill go to the post office and get some packing tape while im there, then carry on packing.

Love to all x
