    Afternoon flyers

    Yesterday I just tidied the hall and S/S the LR and scullery and put past the shopping. Today I have been to the shops made cake pops and fairy cakes with DD. :D

    Love and hugs to the flyers and fly babies who are having a rough time just now xx

    I will find my list and get cracking but first I need to cake decorate and then sort out the baking cupboard its a riot:o

    Bother bother bother tiger lily flowers fell into white acrylic bath and have left yellow stains. Any ideas?
    cif cream (or own brand equivalent) or bleach?

    I would start with a blob of cif on a damp cloth held over a fingertip and gently rub. I don't normally use cif on acrylic baths as it's mildly abrasive, other than for stubborn marks.

    For future reference remove pollen heads from this lilies as soon as they appear - they are EVIL for staining. Pluck them off in a tissue.

    BTW - how posh are you? - I mean lilies in the bathroom;)

    listed loads on e bay

    So far more washing done, our bed stripped and remade, livingroom floor has been brushed, clutter gathered up from livingroom, suitcases all unpacked, dw been unloaded and reloaded, more dirty washing brought up and lunch now on. :D

    OH home early as shoot was called off because of the rain, mind you they've decided to go to a different place tomorrow and he'll need a packed lunch done.

    Right better get everyone fed and then back to it.
    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.

    Made good inroads into my chores, but eyes now feel dry and sore, telling me it's nap time. Why when I get a kiddy free weekend do I use it to catch up on chores and sleep???

    DVD in bed I think.

    Lots of laundry drying, grass needs cutting but one swallow doesn't make a summer and I don't think the grass will be dry enough. If it stays dry I'll do it in morning...

    Have emptied cutlery drawer organiser thingy, was quite grubby. Given it a scrub and will return everything once dry.

    Wow it looks as though everyone has been very busy so far today!

    I had a made session last night in the hope that I would then get on and do lots of much needed study today, but I still haven't started on that yet, oops! Today I have:

    Emptied dishrack
    Washed up breakfast and lunch dishes
    WM x 3
    Wet clothes on line - then rushed inside and onto the airers due to the rain!
    Bed made
    Hair dyed (HH me time :D)
    Weekly food shop done

    Not planning much more flying this weekend except for more laundry, ironing, mopping, and the usual dailies.

    This weather is mad isn't it? We don't have a tumble dryer, so if it won't dry on the line then it has to be hung around the house - fine in colder weather because the heating comes on, not fine in the summer months when it's not cold enough for the heating!

  • 2 HHC done this afternoon in which I managed to do:

    vacuumed stairs
    1 WM
    1TD
    mopped kitchen floor
    mopped hall floor
    mopped utility floor
    wiped telephone
    swept dining room

    Hi ladies,

    I'm run ragged trying to keep on top of flying wit my hours increasing. This is the easy part. I start full time work next week! I need my sanity tested.

    I have spent the day loading the WM and TD (shocking in July). Other than that I've ordered the food for DS1's 18th family party on his birthday next Sunday.

    DS2 won most improved player at the football awards. He's really chuffed as it took him til Christmas to get his fitness up after breaking his leg last June.

    We've been to PC world looking at laptops for DS1's birthday. He's now booked onto a 2 year full time course at college. It only took 3 months for him to apply for it. My patience ran out a long time ago, I'm no saint.
