Morning All

First lot of dishes done, TD on, WM needs reloading and I've got about another 2 loads of dishes to do. I need to do some ironing as well as loads of other things - serves me right for doing pretty much nothing yesterday.

Lots of passing vibes for mumto5's DD

Have a good day all

Hugs

Anyone fancy joining me for a HHI?

Juliejim - I joined you but did half an hour of sorting, matching and folding. I really need to make a start on the ironing today.

CamNollies - I agree on the home delivery, we have a rare MrT today as I had a voucher, I usually do MrS once a month as they deliver free if it is over £100 some days. I hate shopping, even more so with the boys/DH.

Can I join in please? My house is in dire need of some organisation.

Hello wornoutmumoftwo and welcome to the thread. Have a good read of the first post and then jump in. Think about what you want out of it and how you can make it work for you. I joined some years *coughs* ago because I had two small boys, an absolute tip of a house and spent all my time exhausted and chasing my tail! Getting into the discipline of working up to doing the lists and doing a minimum of half an hour a day soon had an impact. Hope it works for you.

I've been doing Flylady off and on for a few years now and would love to join you all here. I need to get back into the swing of it all.

Hello all,

Thursday

I seem to have got out of order this week, although I have done kitchen, living room, hall, landing and bathroom. Just need to vacuum stairs and landing. Then move onto the two bedrooms today and tomorrow.

So this will be main bedroom, with the added bits below.

Clean out your fridge, and use up or get rid of all the leftovers
[STRIKE]Wash, dry and iron any tablecloths, napkins etc[/STRIKE]I put the Christmas table cloth in the wash basket yesterday. That will be washed when I have a load to do.
Water any plants, including real Christmas trees

Clean the Bedroom - altered from bathroom for me.
If any of you have had new sock, Yes pjs etc do you have old ones to get rid of? No
HHI

What are your flying aims for 2012, share with us now To keep it up when *fingers crossed* I go back to work. Its pretty easy really. House is in order anway and flying really dosn't take long once you are in a routine - she says :rotfl:
Do you still need to find a home for some presents? No, sorted out on Christmas Day/Boxing Day - No family over :rotfl:
