Weekly Flylady Thread 26th September 2011

Hi all. Thanks for the thread x

In again, although I'm not sure how well I'll do as new boiler being fitted this week. I have an old back boiler, so that and the fire in front of it (which doesn't work) are going to be ripped out. The boiler is going to be re-located upstairs in the bigger spare room (must get co2 detector). So tonight I must clear spare room and cupboard, as well as the pantry (gas meter is located in there). Not looking forward to the mess/destruction but looking forward to having hot water again and (eventually) an open fire).

Have a great day x

Morning All

TD is on, I need to do a HHI as I haven't done any ironing over the weekend, I need to do the dishes and there's another load waiting to go into the TD. I could do with doing all this before I take the kids to school. Need to get dressed and do the kids' dinners too.

I should be in most of the day I think so I'll tackle the kitchen later. I've got a meeting here tomorrow night so I could do with all the downstairs being fairly tidy and the bathroom being cleaned before then although I'm out all tomorrow morning.

Have a good day all

Hugs

Forgot to ask in post - Is there any way of descaling kettle without buying fancy stuff from shops?

Thanks
