Weekly Flylady Thread 16th July 2012

Afternoon all, been busy here with miss eva from yesterday. She's such a cutie but boy is it hard work, i've forgotten what having a baby is like.

Flying wise not much done except dw and wm plus all kids and myself scrubbed. Fire has been lit as well.

KH showed up yesterday, usual crap about how he's made an awful mistake. He's been told to go and sort himself out, thats all i could really say.

Right i'm gonna grab a coffee and chill for awhile.

Good evening

I had a little snooze washing brought in & folded, and bed remade. i have also been sorting out stuff for our holiday :j Less than 3 weeks now :j:j
DS FINALLY took the dog out - only a short walk though.
DD2 has been hoovering :eek: It has all gone very quiet now. Even the music is off (??) I may to go and check

DD1 has helped me sort out the cupboards in the laundry room & clear off the work surface. Lots of junk, and ood medicines have been flung We have also chucked an old stereo that was apparently broken. Hopefully someone will '!!!!!' it (as my DD would say :rotfl:) and that will save us a trip to the tip :T

Ok - need to start dinner now.

ETA Vanilla - stay strong x

I've built a pergola for the friend I stayed with last night and whilst she was out carbooting this morning, I buzzed her vacuum cleaner around. I'm not surprised her home has got a little more cluttered and dusty since she had back problems and an operation; her vacuum cleaner weighed a ton.

Sometimes, i think there is difficulty in adapting to change contributing to hoarding; the cleaner is kept when it's too heavy because getting rid for a lighter one means admitting there's mobility problems, the toys because it's hard to accept the babies are gone, the rubbish because the days of people being left to starve are still within living memory - and politicians keep threatening to do it again to benefit claimants or telling everyone that their security is at risk from the other side/immigrants/single parents.

After a half hour battle with my laptop not wanting to recognise my camera I gave up trying to photograph stuff with it, and I'm using my phone instead! The pictures may not be as good but I'll whack them on the laptop and edit them down (adjust brightness etc as some of the clothing items are just blobs no matter what angle for some reason :mad: ) then I can decide on prices. Going to keep it simple, 50p, £1, bundle prices which will work out at a discount I'm just shocked at how much "new with tags" stuff I have, or new but never worn more than trying it on A lot is smart "work wear" (blouses, black trousers etc) which I bought as I thought I'd need them for work then the placement fell through & I ended up at DDs primary school where I'm allowed to wear jeans & t-shirt I couldn't return them as being organised I'd already washed & ironed some. Oh well, anything for them is better than them cluttering up my bedroom for another 3-4 years! :eek:

Back I go to tackle the clothing that was DDs...
