Weekly Flylady Thread 2nd October 2011

musogirl295

Morning everyone! Hope you all had good weekends. Didn't do much on the cleaning front in the last couple of days besides keeping on top of the kitchen. Did do a nearly new sale on Sat but wasn't that busy because of the weather. Hardly any clothes were selling (which was mostly what I had!) so only made £20. Going to try another one in a couple of weeks. We did clean properly under our bed though which was disgusting:eek: Was prompted to do it after a night of not sleeping thinking spiders were coming out from under it and crawling over me:(

Last week I did well at the start of the week, but I need to try and keep flying all the way up to Friday this time!


Monday ~ Living room, Hall and Stairs
Level One
Declutter the floors.. make the stairs safe and the hall clear
Vacuum said floors.. and up the stairs.. it looks so much better when you have clear stairs
Level Two
Wipe the sofas
Wash any soft furnishings that are in need
Wipe the paintwork.. inc. the skirtings behind the sofas!
Level Three

FIRES/BOILERS SERVICED, TEST RUN C/H TO CHECK IT IS OK BEFORE IT IS FREEZING AND GET THOSE CHIMNEYS SWEPT.. ESP. IF YOU BURN WOOD/PAPER AS IT STICKS TO CHIMNEY INNARDS! Can't do this as nobody will service the make of boiler we have. We've just got to hope we can afford to move house before the house needs a new one:mad:

Lots to do today, after I've had a fruit tea I'm still trying to keep my coffee intake low as I'm sure it's one of the things that causes my headaches That as well as the fact I needed new glasses, which I now have.

First thing I need to do is phone DD's school and make an appointment to see the head of their college about the situation with my XH etc and that I WILL be taking them out of school for a few days when he's released from prison cos they're scared of being at home
