Weekly Flylady Thread 2nd April 2012

pigpen

before bed the girls were forced to do a half hour flinging in their room.. it is lots better but nowhere near done.. I filled a binbag with rubbish so there is now room for bins to be emptied but otherwise all 5 of my bins are full to bursting.. 2 recycling, 1 garden and 2 just rubbish all full size wheelie bins.. that is heck of a lot of rubbish!

Tomorrow DD3 is at physio and the freezer is being repaired. I am hoping to get hold of DS1 so that I can dump this desktop pc with him.. I am sure it will run better than his. I have wiped all the photos except for the ones of Jacob and DS1 and there are some of others and the antivirus etc is all still installed but it all needs updating.. guess I could do that before dropping it round. Might do that tomorrow..

I am also bundling a bunch of stuff into the car to drop at DD1's after the physio appointment, it only requires a minor detour on the way home but she will appreciate it.

2 x wm
4 wash baskets filled
7 loads folded to be put away tomorrow
2x DW

I will have space and cleanliness in here!

Oh dear. One f my eb@y bundles that ended last thu was bid on by someone in Portugal, I stated uk mainland only, lol. No payment so I sent a message yesterday asking if they wanted the item and to provide a uk address. They have replied, in Portuguese, lol, saying what roughly translates as "I've not required".

Lord only knows if that means they didn't mean to bid, or if they don't want to supply a uk address. Eeish. I don't speak Portuguese this could get messy...

I'm giving eb@y a rest this month it's too stressful lol.

Having said that, I've made enough spending money for our holiday now lol

Sagaris

Am I the only one up ha ha!

Bought a high stair gate last night to stop doggy no 2 jumping the normal one into our bedroom! The 'spare' one we have can go over the other gate on the second bedroom - if he just broke in and lay on the beds, that would be one thing, but he has the knack of finding things and putting teeth marks in them....

Got the basics dons last night and would like to sort my shoes out from that list - I'm no Imelda Marcos but would do with taking a bin bag up there and flinging a couple of pairs!

Have already bought the dog towels in off the line and they are finishing off in the dryer, and 'decontaminated' the back yard - she is very discerning where she 'goes', never in the garden, always on grass (and we have bags in all our coat pockets!) but he isn't proud and will go anywhere - preferably in nettles if we are out, but he uses the garden lots too! Sorry if that's TMI for this time in the morning!

2 loads washed and dried yesterday, towels waiting to go into TD (rain forcast here today so I'm not risking the line) and I will see what I can manage today off the list.

Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday, the roads are a lot clearer for sure! Have a good day everyone!

Good Morning Sagaris. I've been up since 6.10 with a sore throat.

WM is on and I've downloaded the free contact lense voucher from this site. I wear contacts mainly for vanity and not very often but my last pack is down to 3 each side. It's 15 months since I last got a box of 30 so good timing for me.

Littlies are at tennis camp again this morning. It's alot colder then yesterday so I will dig out some gloves for them.

DH worked from home yesterday and his meetings today have been cancelled so he's still WFH. He had lunch ready for us when we came back from Tennis yesterday. I'm being really spoilt as he did Sunday roast as well when I did a 12 mile walk.

Morning All

I've been up for a while too. So far I've washed a load of dishes and caught up with some emails. My car's in for MOT today so I've got to go out fairly early to drop that off so I think I'll probably have a wander around town while it's being done although I'm not sure the kids will appreciate that. Passing vibes would be appreciated although I'm sure it will need something doing. Other than that my kitchen's like a bombsite after the kids decided to do some baking yesterday but then we had to go out so it never got tidied up, the dog had emptied the rubbish bag when I got home last night and torn all the rubbish up so although I picked it up last night I keep finding more things! Recycling bins today as well so I need to make sure everything's in them.

Mumto5 - hope you're feeling better soon.

Oh well I suppose I'd better make a start.

Have a good day all

Hugs

Jue

mrs-moneypenny

morning all, thank you for the lists. im in again
i hope alll are well. hugs to all who need/want one.
thank you for all the messages of sympathy and support last week, grans funeral was sad and difficult but it was a beautiful service and she is buried close to her daughter (my aunt who passed way too young 13 yeaars ago) so lots of the family took comfort from the fact that they are together again. got 5 miles from home then realised the flowers id bought for my aunts grave were still at home so spent the journey looking for somewhere that sold flowers cut it close but there was a shop 5 mins from my uncles house so we nipped in there for replacements.
yesterday was my youngest Ds birthday but i seemed to spend the day stressing over paperwork and ended up in near tears down the local advice centre, hopefully sorted now just waiting for new insurance forms to come from new company then i can insure with them.
Ds has dentist check up today so a walk there and back will fill most of the morning.

Morning

Bit stressful here. DS2's behaviour and DH is on verge of a BD. Feels a bit like a bad film.

Hospital appointment for DS1 later this morning.

Wm is on & breakfast stuff cleaned and put away.

Nanamia

I'm in all be it late Juliejim. Thank you for the lists and words of encouragement ladies. Last week a wash out with one DGD or another plus DD and DS argh!!! Who said it gets easier when they've left home?

Anyhow I'm waffling glad the funeral went ok Mrs MP sad days but should be a really celebration of your dear Grans life. I lost my Nan years ago and miss her everyday- a wonderful,fiery, no nonsense lady who'd have been a huge OS helper think she must've been about when they were writing the manual..looking back a lot of the tips I pick up on here she also did :-) think she's probably having a chuckle :-)

Been helping a dear old lady with some decorating so no flying yesterday and minimal today. Keep checking in to see what you all are doing and will hopefully spend tomorrow on "catch up duties".
Dailies done- after 10.5 weeks flying they seem to be done on autopilot :-)

Happy Tuesday ladies :-)
