    - I've not got any motivation (i've been sat on my bottom all morning surfing the net :o except for getting up to make coffees....I think I'm on my 5th :confused: ) but I have got this : willpowerdust.gif

    Can you tell I'm bored? Think I'll go and have a good wash, change my clothes , maybe even put some make-up on, but there is no way I am going out there without my hiking socks on... I can't feel my hands now! PLUS there is still frost on the roof of the house opposite where the sun hasn't reached yet winter_brr.gif

    Oh well, best go get my stuff together for my meeting :wave:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

I might 'fly' some of the old ones off! There will definitely be some changs if I have my way!!

    My back room is a mess again! .. Front room looks nice though which is great because the chappy from British Gas is coming tomorrow to look at my boiler and give us a quote for a new one!! .. Need to beat DS1 into a quick fly about his bedroom as the old boilers are inthere.. he likes old boilers!! lol

    :hello: all
    Sorry i havent read the whole thread as it will take me AGES! I read the flylady site a while ago but it all seemed a bit too much for me, but now i need to sort it out, my house is like a pig stye, seriously, i am lazy as anything, hate all housework, especially washing up, BUT NOW IT'S GETTING BEYONE A JOKE AND THE Last straw was the cable man came to fit a box in and you could see the look on his face he must of thought i was a right messy cow!
    I've never been a tidy person but now it's starting to get me down, i want to start re decorating but need to sort the mess and clutter before i do, i just cant seem to be tidy, nothing has a 'place' argggghhhhhhhhhhhhh! I just want to cry thinking about it all, my mum is always having a go at me and cant undersatnd why i cant just be tidy (she's like kim and aggie rolled in to one!) I so desperately want to, i think it's mainly down to pure lazyness, plus no motivation, but i dunno how to stop being lazy!
    As far as flyng goes, how does it all work? do we copy what the op does can someone explain a bit please, sorry i'm a bit dense, please help!!!!

    Astonsmummy the list of things to do is on page 1. Tomorrows list will be posted tonight.

    Try a few 27 fling boogies first which will help you clear some of the clutter. Stick on some loud music, grab a binbag and throw away 27 items that are either rubbish or you know darn well you are never going to use again.
