    Morning all - hope you're having a relaxing weekend with your families. :wave:

    I have got a terrible headache - absolutely nothing to do with huge glasses of wine I consumed with friends yesterday evening :rolleyes: ;)

    The boiler is on the blink, plumber thinks it's the pump and BG are coming out later. Therefore the house is blinking freezing and the Punky family are dancing around like idiots trying to stay warm :D

    Hope Moggins is ok.

    Will do dailies and work on my hotspot (paperwork & filing) today.

    Oh Flyboy - we expect big things from you this week as you haven't been around for a while - no pressure :p

    Good luck to those of you dealing with poo.........:eek:

    Morning everyone, hope everyone is well, still no sign of Moggins, hope all is ok in the Mogins household with Moggins being unwell and the little one being poorly lately it's got me worried. But anyway no excuses not to fly. Thankfully only poop I've had to deal with was the puppy this morning. She's starin to annoy me as she's 5 months now and still making a 'mess' on a regular basis. Going through more disinfectant than ever.

    Right the weekend list, I find doing weekend one easier!

    Dailies (Inc[STRIKE] floors, S&S kitchen/bathroom,poo partol in garden etc[/STRIKE])
    Get boys to help sort some of the stuff in their rooms as we're organising an Easter fair at school-this will be the hardest part of the weekend- DS2 done
    [STRIKE]Get uniforms out to dry
    Wash DS2 bed linen again
    Sort kitchen cupboards - have emptied a lot already to make a start
    Sort kitchen benches after done cupboards
    Make bread, cakes,yoghurt and biccys for the hols[/STRIKE]
    Clean kitchen floor (no doubt I'll drop something when sorting cupboards)
    Sort pile of paperwork collected from around the house!
    Sort uni stuff that's spread across table
    [STRIKE]Clean dogs room[/STRIKE]
    Finish sorting that sock/undies basket :(
    Nighttime stuff (easier this week as no school but still need clothes etc out)

    Right, good luck everyone, especially those trying to catch up :) have the flylady force be with you :rotfl: yes my son was watching star wars at 6am :rotfl:
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Morning all. I'm so sorry I didn't post yesterday but I can see you have all managed to sort yourselves out which is lovely. Driving 36 miles and 3 hours of taking my parents shopping and doing the school run too really took it out of me. Plus Dad insisted on me taking a fully laden tool box home with me (carrying that down their stairs and putting it in the boot was no joke). DH got up at 6 to find me lying on the sofa and packed me straight off to bed. That's the last thing I remember until 9am today!

    I still feel very weak but at least my head is clearer today. No one appears to have done anything whilst I am ill so I attempted to tidy the dining room whilst the kettle was boiling, looks like today is going to be filled with very small jobs done very slowly. I would leave it but I can't stand the state of my house anymore.
    Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

    Had the last day of our half term yesterday, so went into York. Had a great day, but no Flying - at least no-one in the house to make a mess, either!

    Done some ironing this morning. Both small Penguins are out for much of the day so DH and I are going to tackle the garden.

    Have a great one 16_3_205.gif Penny. x

    :kisses3: thank goodness you are ok Moggins, welcome home, you had me worried there. Take it easy, I am sure the house won't fall down if you take things a little slower for a couple of days, but I understand how you feel that sometimes it can feel that way, I hate being ill as noone does it for me and just have double to do later :rolleyes:

    Mumoftwo I'm doing bribary, my sons psychiatrist likes to call it a 'motivator' but it's a bribe whatever posh word you use! They are having PC time, then helping sort stuff for fayre, then more PC time/games time if they get it done! In fact oldest is doing his flappy hands bouncing at the mo, sounds like he's going to come through the ceiling! :rolleyes:

    moggins Glad to hear you're a little better, but I have to say you should be recouperating NOT cleaning, just leave it and put yourself right first x

    Bebee Poor you, you're having a time aren't you :( x

    TNG If you're not back in two days we'll send out a search party :D

    Ok, Done most of the master bedroom, including pc desk cause that's where it is/washed the window, only thing left to do is put clean sheets on bed, the old ones are currently in the washer, 1st of many loads *groan*

    Hoovered right through downstairs, sorted out kitchen and give it a good scrub, sink cleared and shined (as much as you can with a white plastic one) DW emptied. Just gotta motivate myself to go upstairs and sort DD2's bedroom now.........
