Hello all xxx
I'm still in a strop this morning.. must be PMT.. but if anyone suggested that they'd be ripped limb from limb lol. I usually get a day or so of it about 4 days before AF turns up.. so that'll be.. Thursday/Friday.. I'd put money on it too!
I must get some bread on the go and load the DW as there are no pots left in the cupboard.
HE (that man.. 'Im) has taken all the gremlins off to church this morning.
My ebay stuff is doing fab.. I have £60 on there at the moment.. and ages left on most of it. Just need a buyer for my crib and all the big stuff is leaving! I have 21 watchers on a t shirt !!!!! unbelievable!! I'm saving the other stuff for half price listing on Tuesday.. I'll have to sort it all on turbo lister though first.. fling fling fling!! I WILL get rid of the debt if it kills me!! .. Needing to raise the money for my specs at the moment.
right.. enough waffle..
BM .. And now I've done this..
DW .. that's done. Will need to be on again too!
WM
TD .. done both of these too.. off to do them again as my washbasket is almost piled ceiling high again!
And as DH is insistent on making more mess.. NOTHING else!!!! (new doorframe, door and toilet platform today apparently.. we need to raise the loo to achieve the correct fall on the pipes)LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0 -
Morning all
Done a load of washing and put it out. Don't think it will dry but at least it's out of the way.
Vacuumed downstairs. Had a load of sesame seeds on the kitchen floor. Haven't used any sesame seeds.......
Roast cooking now.0 -
lil_me, shirleypark, Denise NZ - thankyou for making me feel so welcome. (I know I forgot someone else's name but 3 appears to be the maximum amount I can remember!)
Have woken up this morning - and intend to:
tidy up all the hotspots
vacuum that gunk from behind the computer (and under the sofa)
Make the bed (when OH finally gets up)
Do a bit of ironing
Tidy away the clothes in the bedroom - even OH's, I am going to keep this flat clean for me!!
Load the washing machine
Vacuum the bedroom
Tidy the kitchen after OH cooked yesterday (bless him - he knew I was on a downer so made me my favourite food, but predictably didn't clear any of it up - ShirleyPark, he doesn't always tidy up afterward!)
I'm off to do my menu planner now - OH is dead set on the pub for lunch but being a dutiful DFW I am instead going to purchase enough stuff for sunday lunch and the papers and try and make the kitchen just as attractive an option.
Have a good day guys. I'm starting the real fly lady way tomorrow with the lounge and the bathroom - I can't wait for a couple of weeks time when the place is looking great!!!0 -
Well so far today I have hoovered downstairs, done washing up. popped to Ely tescos and got most of the bits I needed (plus new swimming cossies for girls £2.50 each bargain!). Also popped in to Wollies and found ballet music CD DD1 was desperate for. Bought colouring in books to so will do that later when DD2 wakes up from her nap.
Will be cooking roast pork later for tea. As for anything else have decided to start again tomorrow. Upstairs could do with a hoover but as this is my only weekend off for a month family time is more important.
DD1 scoffing lunch and I am on here looking for rice pudding recipe.
Happy flying everyone and hugs to the poorly people.
MOGGINS - when I was breast feeding and feeling run down I took a liquid vitamin suppliment called Floradix. Its got iron in plus loads of extracts from other plants. It really did buck me up, I got it from Holland and Barrett.0 -

They used to ask what i'd given them and when I gave them one of the above answers they'd give me a strange look and then eat it.
Bless them!

Back from walk, dogs smell worse but can't lift the biggest in the bath (went in river) need to clean car later as they stank that out too, oh and the muddy shoes. Kids and dogs all worn out so did the trick. Actually shattered now myself, but lots to do. Managed to get some broth mix, so that is soaking, ham shank out to do broth with. Going to do kitchen first, then son can get crafts stuff out (messy baking again) paperwork later.
Thanks for the tip about HP listing day on eBay just had a look as I didn't get an email, http://pages.ebay.co.uk/sell/2007halfpricefeb/ for those interested, will wait to list mine now.One day I might be more organised...........
