Olympic Weekly Flylady Thread 6th August 2012

msgnomey

well 2 weeks, no nearly 3, into the summer hold and my house still looks like a pit I really must do something about that!!! We have been away for a week, not very successful as OH wasn't well (depression) and we came home a bit early but he's a bit brighter now, it always gets me down as well and I end up doing not much to keep the noise down (eg no hoovering, wm or td) as noise really winds him up when he's down iyswim

anyway


tomorrow I will
catch up on the washing (weather should be good so I can peg it out)
hoover and maybe clean the carpets
tidy up the LR/DR
clear the cr*p in the DR/LR and THROW SOME OF IT AWAY!!!!
on the plus side there was a charity bag collection on wednesday and I managed to off load 56 bin bags of clothes that don't fit any more so my wardrobe has been de-clutterd

right off to bed full of good intentions

catch up in the morning and post my successes!!

Msgnomey.. 56 binbags!!!! not 5 or 6??????? Oh my word.. how did that fit in your house? Where do you live??? :eek: ... OH said I do not have a lot of clothes.. so ty.. ... well done though.. it must have been hard to see it all go but very liberating!!

I have decided I have a problem... shoes... and I appear to be developing a bag fetish too.... I neeeeeeeed to get it under control.....

Hi all, been decluttering the last week of my Job, today is the last day!

:j:j:j:j x 1000,00000 gazillian billion.:D


Gradually feeling better about so many things and feel like I'll have the time and energy and thinking space to deal with it all.

Flying has been minimal except for the chimney deciding to gush out a load of soot three times this week :eek:

Hubby has taped it off with rubble sacks and gaffer tape until we can get a sweep round. Looks like a crime scene, carpet pretty wrecked, needs rug doctoring, hoping to get that done next week.


I have a list as long as my arm but today I will be at work, getting this out the way.

Have a great day ladies and gents. Back laters......:cool::dance:

Morning all

Triker - enjoy your LAST day at work

Pigpen - hope your daughter feels better soon.

There is going to be minimal flying today, just going to do a general tidy up. On orders from my DS I am to rest my back today. Me thinks he is worried that I won't be able to paint his room next week as promised.:)

Hope everyone has a great day, sending hugs and GWS vibes to those that need them x

Just had to drop in to say that because I can't stick to the right rooms every day (various reasons) and usually have to do three rooms every weekend as well, I have been doing other things when other FlyLadies have been getting Golds and I've been getting Disqualified (not that I mind - much. Grrrr).

You can do Rooms in which ever order you like

Just a quick post to say that I've hardly stopped flying or working today, but Lamewolf, I think, has beat us all, and gets that Gold medal, whether she wants it or not!

Totally agree. Lamewolf the love you and Mr Wolf show for each other is so fantastic to see. I hope you both feel better soon x

watching telly 800m was wonderful

We were in the stadium and the cheering was like nothing I have experienced before, repeated when he got his gold medal

Hugs to all of you with DHs suffering with BDs it must be so difficult for you all to contend with xx

Zero flying yesterday so will be playing catchup for the next few days once I've consulted the Olympic schedule.

Morning all. Feel like I've been up forever already. Have cleaned all the windows inside and vacuumed/swept through the house. Just off to walk the dogs, drop littley at the groomers, then it will be time for the paid stuff. Intending to take a proper lunch break today to do HHI.

Catch you later.

Morning all, gonna be a busy day here. Plan is to take DS3's bike in for repair (i'm hoping they can do it today) then i'm heading to the shopping centre to get a few more school things (mainly DD's school shoes). Need to get loads of flying done this weekend plus the back garden done. Summer scheme starts on monday and i'm helping for the week, excited but nervous. Plus DD is away for a week with the NDCS so i'm nervous about that too. :rotfl:

Need to get my BSL form off today so hopefully i get a place. I could actually hand it in to the tech when i leave the bike in. KD kept his word and there's money in the bank so i'm thinking i might take the kids to W5 in Belfast on sunday, i know they'll really enjoy it.

LW well done on going out by yourself...:T Hope MR LW feels better soon.
