I'm in. Thanks for the list juliejim.
3 weeks left of work then 6 weeks off with the kids - not sure which is better flying-wise!0 -
Evening everyone, thank you JJ for tomorrows list, and thank you Dusty for last weeks list
I had a productive weekend and managed to clear nearly everything on it, although a couple of things didn't get done. But I see the kitchen is tomorrows list which is one of the rooms that got missed, so am pleased it is there for tomorrow
I have a manic week of ferrying my friend T around to various appointments, and then doing the school run for her in the morning and afternoon. I can't wait till the school holidays then I actually get time to breathe..lol. Still it's not her fault, she has had major surgery on her knee and unfortunately is off it for a few weeks. So obviously driving is off the agenda for awhile.. Also being a foster parent means she has many meetings etc.. So I am her driver for the time beingBut the good news is that I don't have to do tomorrows morning and afternoon school run but I do have to take her to a meeting mid morning, then help her with the babies till the others get home.

Thanks JJ for the lists.
Starting the week off list as I want to finish DS1's room with him and then move onto DS2's room. I'm finding I work on about a 10 day cycle re flying as I have 9 rooms to do plus HSL and they all take about a day allowing for BR and kitchen to be done each week.
Decorating progress is very slow so dining room will be mostly out of action/off list for another week for me.
Governors meeting tomorrow night so I need to spend some time tomorrow reading and prepping the 2 reports I'm supposed to give.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

I'm in this week again. Lots on, so I am planning on aiming for Level 1 across the board, and if I get anything else done its a bonus. I need the thread to keep me on track or I'd just sit here at the laptop/infront of the TV and do nothing as the house turns into a smelly pit
Monday: Phone Secondary school, phone primary school, take DD to hospital for a new cast, return rental DVD (post box in the hospital), Sort orders out for customers, set DD to on preparing books to go out to customers.
Tuesday: Phone Hospital to check on DD's appointment for Friday, Hairdressers for DD at 11.30 (getting her hair washed properly as home based ones are only so successful;)), work evening 6-8pm (Ex is coming down to see DD and will sit with her while I go out),
Wednesday: Supposedly DD going to secondary school for open day but we'll have to see, must remind DD to text Happy Birthday to ExSupposedly "New intake" parents evening at secondary school for me, will have to wait and see.
Thursday:
Friday: Clinic with DD, remind DD to text her grandad happy birthday
Saturday: Ex here (I need to find something to do so he can stay here with her)

Right., I'm off to bed. Just a few minutes later than planned :jCreeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
I'm in again and many thanks to the ladies who "do" the thread, I'm happy with the lists being weekly/monthly, whatever the majority want is ok by me:]
I'm way behind on the ironing, washing is up to date but its now a case of pull it out of the pile, shake it, iron it if needed and away we go, trouble is the ironing piles are everywhere now - Kitchen, DR and LR, its getting silly so 30 mins ironing everyday until I get it back under control.
I went to B&Q today for some tacks and ended up buying paint! Dulux 5ltr tins were on offer for £15, we need paint for the LR so paint was bought so thats another job that needs to be done, problem with all these jobs that need doing is that its starting to depress me, I'm sure I'm starting the change but blood tests say otherwise however, flushes and insomnia are par for the course now and because I'm not sleeping I struggle through the day with motivation.
Sorry that has nothing to do with flying but I needed to offload it :{
Kitchen is in need of a clean so I'm glad thats tomorrows list - thank you

Hello :wave:
I have been awol for some while, but I am back nowI have finished my studying for this year :j It was a bit hard fitting it all in by the end, but it is done now. Just have to wait for my grades now:eek:
We had the family round today for DH's birthday (last week) & mine next week. Need to clear up now - good job it is kitchen day tomorrow(I can hear DH washing up as I type :T)
I will post a list tomorrow, when I am more organised. I have been very busy work-wise as well, and I need to get on top of that.
I have briefly caught up on what i have missed recently....
Pigpen - congrats on the new grandbeasts. they look adorable
Bossymoo - you are an inspiration- and the teddy bears are lovely.
Lady-Liberty - lovely to 'hear' from you
Hugs, sticks and spoons in abundance for anyone that needs them, esp LW & JoJo
Thanks JulieJim & Dusty for the lists, as always :T
OK - I am off to bed. See you tomorrow!0 -
Hi!
Count me in for this week, my first week.
I am a huge lazy bones when it comes to house work and leave it all to the DH which is naturally causing rows, hopefully lists will help me to get motivated without him asking.

Level Two
Clear worktops
Clean worktops right into the corners
Level Three

For my own list for tomorrow I have to:
Call Virgin Mobile and ask why it would appear I have been charged twice for DH's bill.
Call Virgin Media and ask to postpone my next bill date and why they still haven't given me the credit I was promised.
Apply for at least 3 jobs.
DH is out all morning to sign on and complete a course with no idea what time he will return so how much I will get done with a 2 yo apparently having seperation anxiety at the moment (never ever had before) I have no idea but I will give it my best!0
