Weekly Flylady Thread 4th June 2012

Jazee

Morning all.

Nice to see seafarer's wife posting again.

Well I haven't done any flying since last week, just the dailies. This morning I've vacuumed and swept through the house, but I'm not feeling 100% so will work from home, and doggies won't be walked as I don't want to stray from the house.

Will go and clean some plugholes. At least then I can say I've done something off the lists!

Catch you all later.

Well I can't separate the scalextric so it'll have to stay up.

I know it's early but does anyone fancy joining me for a HHC?

yesterday ended up ok, i threw myself into DDs old room tidied, set up the drum kit and footie table, moved the cupboard and games chair and cleared 3 carrier bags of recycling & rubbish out. hoovered all through upstairs and the stairs. gave youngest DS room a HHC cleared his floordrobe so with all that and painiting mils ceiling i felt i achieved a lot.
Had to smile DH said mum knew you'd been round, she didnt mention the hoovering, washed walls or painted ceiling. but i had left a dirty coffee cup n the sink!
thank you all for the continued good wishes for my niece they are really appreciated.
PP sending vibes to your two in the hope everything ges well and both mums and babes are healthy happy and dont do anything too soon.
hugs and special good wishes to all who need them
LW hope you are alright havent noticed you about this week

is there a list somewhere of basic dailies tasks? i need organising more.

im going to make a start on the bathroom first as ive got 3 sleeping teens in here DS had mates round last night gaming

Mrs mp - LW's on holiday - unless I've lost a week and that was last week in which case she's probably getting herself sorted after being away!

Just sorting out 1 of the cupboards in the kitchen - can anyone tell me why I've got 3 boxes of frosties open?

Morning all

Highlight of the day so far is that the blue (recycling) and brown (garden) wheelies have been emptied

Forecast is poor here for today so just doing one wash which can go on the maiden. Ironing just about up to date.

Plan is to clean mine and DS"&3s bedrooms and have a bit of a sort out in their cupboards. May pop to Mr T later (coupons) and possibly do an hour in next door's garden if there is a dry spell.

Also try and find Harry Potter book for DS3 which has somehow disappeared.

Valli - how did you find out about the spectrum - is there an online test? I have a belief that loads of us are somewhere on it :rotfl:

mrs-moneypenny

thanks JJ, with missing a few days last week and not being here properly over bank hol i must have missed that info glad she ok
re the frosties same reason i have several coco pops open at aany one time and usually multiple jars of choc spread on the go, because children grb the first one they see instead of looking for the one that in use!
how did your HHC go JJ? im just about to start one.

youngest Ds now awake so hes woken one te the sleeping teens, they are now gaming. will offer them breakfast then make a start on the days list

juliejim

I'll join you for another HHC Mrs MP. DD knew how to take the scalextric down so she's just doing that so I'll hoover up soon once I've finished sorting the cupboards out.

Have a good day, everyone, despite the rain that seems to be everywhere.

Well, we are not going on our day out, just to the house of the friend we were meeting.

So, have an extra hour or two with not travelling. Have put wm on, kids are having breakfast and watching Nemo again (how has that DVD not workout yet?). Might get iron out in kitchen with my mini board and do the curtains I washed a week ago... Then will do downstairs loo.

So can't wait for my new mattress tomorrow... But you know when you build up the idea of a good nights sleep, when in all reality it's not going to happen anyway? Well, it'll be nice to get back in my own room anyway...

Heavy rain & low light levels here.
