    WM already on and dw about too. Gonna grab a cuppa and make a start on the livingroom.

    Monday - Living Room, Hall & Stairs

    Basic Flying
    Clear and hoover all floors
    Dust all dusty bits
    Clean mirrors
    Empty bins
    Frog List
    Do items 3 & 6 from the list you should have made last week
    Children
    To do at least 1 job of your choice
    Extras
    HHI
    Wipe and water plants


    Dusty good to hear your having a good time.
    Valli 'shift the skip' vibes AND 'tiler do some tiling' vibes.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j

    Am in again Thanks JulieJim.

    Its also chilly here this morning bbbrrrrrrrr. We're at OH house, my old house before i had to go back up north for family reason's, it's weird being here. But it is disgusting worse than my house, you can imagine two blokes living together. I found quite a few things mouldy in the fridge and cupboards *Yuck*

    Hi, I am much more of a lurker than a contributor on this board, but I just wanted to say a thankyou for the Flylady thread. I'm sure there are loads of us who read it but don't get the chance to comment. This week I am going to try and catch up with my housework, after having neglected it for... too long :o

    Morning All

    Well I'm out later this afternoon and I'm picking up another Beaver leader who's coming over to visit our colony tonight and then I've got Beavers and Cubs. I'm going to have a bath in a min and then I'm going to make a start.

    Valli - skip and tiler vibes heading your way.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Washing on. Need to load and set off the DW, do the washing up, have a shower then go and get my tyres changed. After that I'm taking some plants over to my DB and SIL (must remember to take a trowel to plant them with!) and then having a day out with my niece and nephew. Tip run will be later today/tomorrow so I can keep on making progress in the garden!

    Morning all

    dishwasher emptied (sorry but it's new - so I love saying that!) best thing is it frees me from the hated 'drying up' job.

    No sign of tiler/skip man yet.

    Have washing on line; all ironing done
    Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY

    Thank you Honey Bear
  • Will certainly try to do some list work this week. Car boot sale yesterday cleared a good bit of clutter - my favourite bit is when you end up giving stuff away just to avoid taking it home again. Very few people refuse!

    Ds2 very excited because he now has the money for a new clown bike (BMX), but will get him onto his list task. What should it be?

    Going to wash the sitting room curtains as this makes the whole room smell fresh, and probably only gets done every other year.......

    This time tomorrow the cleaners will be here to do the Spring Clean :j:j:j, yesterday we cleared a load of paper (some for burning/some for re-cycling) and got rid of some "still in good nick but I will never wear" clothes, I also pretty much cleared my desk - so just the raging hot spot on the sofa to do today and I will be happy :D

    So if someone wants to join me for a HHC at 10.00 hours that would be great ;)
