Flylady Thread for Monday 19th February

After dds surgery was cancelled due to the lurgy this morning i have ditched my list and vented all my frustration out on her bedroom - she hasn't even noticed that i've recycled half her clothes as she is lying on the poorly quilt asleep on the sofa. That room has taken most of the day but has been cleaned within an inch of its life - i am now going to lock her in there until next wednesday which is the rescheduled date as it is the cleanest room in the house by far - have sprayed everything with tea trea oil in water which will hopefully keep those pesky lurgy germs at bay

LJD1 I have a TMA that was due in today aswell tutor called today, problem being we still haven't got the programme we need or had half of the stuff sent out, inc assignment booklets etc, I'm going to call them to have a rant tomorrow!!!!! Night night sleep well

stef hope your DD is feeling better for the reschedule next week, sometimes just easier to get these things out of the way



Well DP took boys up to my room to watch Star Wars before bed, and I've managed to blast through the floors downstairs vacuuming, mopping and scrubbing!! Sat on seat now while it dries good excuse huh!! Only have to go over puppy prints before bed, she decided to leg it across after I had just finished, grrrr!

ARGHH !!!!! Yesterday the kitchen was perfect, today I get home from work and it's a mess. How hard is it to clean up as you cook ! Or to empty the dishwasher so you can put your dirty things in it rather than just dump them on the draining board or in the sink. Better add tidy and clean kitchen to the list.

Todays list:-

Wednesday jobs - MOGGINS LIST - ALL DONE

· Extra bit - clean all downstairs doors DONE

Also

Clean kids outside toys that have been freecycled (choose recipient) Tomorrow
S & S lounge & kitchen DONE
Make pastry for tonights chicken & leek pie CHANGE OF PLAN NOW TOMORROWS TEA
Pop to greengrocers for veg DONE
Pop to shop for milk DONE
Put BM on DONE
Put WM on DONE

Make some biscuits DONE
Make jelly - GIRLS WANTED HM RICE PUDDING INSTEAD
If it stays dry let kids run round garden while I sort shed this pm - NOT DONE

Life today was not great (well this afternoon), our buyer had the survey back and wants to know over £5000 off his offer price. Now the things he wants done are not required just recommend being done and at the most would cost about £800. So we are now back on the market.

Am glad I have kept up with the flying as at least if someone phones for a viewing I know with a 10 min flick round, if that, everything is ready. Usually just kids toys to put away, we are working on the put away before you get the next activity out.

So this pm went a bit pear shape due to back and frowing with Estate Agent and our purchaser (git!!).

Anyway onwards and upwards so over next few days list will be upped so we can further declutter, touch up some paint work and tidy front (put weedkiller down). Also as sun shone threw windows realise they need cleaning again (only did 2 weeks ago) surely they should last a month?

I've updated my 'snowball' spreadsheet with my most recent payments and have checked my paypal account, I am hoping to get enough (over £50) to transfer it to my bank account and pay it off some debt or other before the end of the month. There is £30 in there right now.

I also need to speak to my mother about paying me back some of the money she owes me.. I am popping round there in a bit as I have a mirror for her. *gulp* it is pretty scary asking your mother for money that she owes you!! But we have to come to some sort of arrangement because I am really skint.

Chillies in bed.

Just about to load the DW, put the uniforms in the WM, hang the wet stuff and make sure DD1 showers!!!!!
