I was wondering the same thing pigpen, are we going to have a new thread each week, like the meal planning one, and they replace the old one each time?

Thanks Moggins xxxxx

I have to say, that today is the first day EVER that my house is not in CHOAS!!!! Does anyone want to pop over my house unannounced so I can show off, lol?!?

I want to play, but as my house is currently a builders yard, I am going to have to copy and paste the OPs every day and print and start it in about 6 weeks when I have something other than a sink in my kitchen

pigpen

pink butterfly.. I'd LOVE to visit.. if only to get out of cleaning my hovelesque skip!!

I wish my house was presentable, my back room looks like someone threw in a clothes bomb!!

thanks moggins, day off work tomorrow, flat still in good order from last week, so shouldn't take too long, but it definitely needs a quick run over

Hi all :hello:
Just a quick question - this thread just caught my eye!
Is this the same as or in addition to/instead of the stuff on the uk flylady yahoo group? (FLYingInUnitedKingdom)
Have fallen by the wayside and thought better 'jump in' and do some serious decluttering - sink is clean but not shiny!
Cheers

Thanks! It was major hard work! The weightwatchers diet is brilliant. Its the only one i've been on that didn't leave me starving all day long. Plus i have a toddler and a baby that i run about after all day long, so that helps!

I put on LOADS of weight after my first child and as i had my second almost immediately afterwards, i never had the chance to lose any baby weight! Now i've had my second, i've been trying really hard. So far so good!! I was a size 10 - went up to a size 18 :eek: and am now back to a 12/14 :T

Moggins, that's fab! Brilliant for us w***ing SHEs! I'll be able to get the tasks done and then join in the chat with a clear conscience.
