    Piggers just come in for the chat then.

    I've done the tidying and the bins, onto the floor now I can see them.

    I haven't forgotten the link to last weeks thread, just can't do it on the tablet.

    I'm in this week after failing miserably last week! :o Thank you very much for the lists - they do keep me in line as much as possible. I have a quieter week this week so very hopeful I can keep up with you all...

    So I made a start before work, but will be doing more after work.

    Dancemum - I did join you in your HHC @9am but couldn't come on the computer and let you know otherwise I wouldn't have gotten off the computer again and joined in, lol!!

    ClaireT - I am the same as you. I have been trying to get on top of decluttering as I think that is where my problem lies. I don't have space to put the things I need, cos I am storing that much junk that I don't need. So I have been trying to sell things and bin things along the way. I did have a few steps backwards tho last week as my mum said she was going to take a load of good things to the tip unless I wanted them. So I said I didn't want to keep them, but that she should sell them. And she said she couldn't be bothered with that, so if I wanted to sell them I could keep all the proceeds as long as I collected them from her house. So now I have a load more clutter whilst it all sells :o:eek:

    TTC # 2 since Oct 2011 - good things come to those who wait :o

    :dance: 2013 is going to be our lucky year :dance:

    Hi, I'm brand new to the forum. I have been getting the flylady emails for a year or so now but can't even remember the last time I opened one as they just confused me! I much prefer this idea.

    Ona brighter note - AOL weather is forcasting an 11% chance of snow here at the weekend lol
    A poster from Bedfordshire mentioned it on the Daily thread - I sure hope it doesn't happen, I detest snow!:eek:

    I probably ought to keep my head down and stay quiet this week - Mr LW has two early shifts, Wednesday and Friday, and I have Megan here til 15:30 this afternoon, so basically I'm only going to have two and a bit days of Flying time, which isn't really adequate to do a proper job.

    I'll try and get the kitchen done as usual today; and if I can get Tuesday and Wednesday's rooms done tomorrow, I may stand a chance. No "me" time this week, though, for sure.:cool:

    I have Megan's belongings in a pile in the kitchen - she didn't bring much, bless her, just her food and dietary supplements, poo bags, and a tub of ear wipes.:o Other than that, there's just her water bowl, towel and beds (she has two!) to pick up. I'll put the Dys0n round after she's gone, too, as there's bound to be dog hair to pick up.

    Right, as Toots always said, "Head down and batter on!":D
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    ok.. so in my attempt to do nothing all day I appear to have filled 2 wheelie bins, smashed up and binned a computer desk and transferred money to DS2 so he can get to college all week.

    And done squeaks pants up and down 1000 times..

    I may go empty the bins upstairs ;)

    Tiddles and I are sorting her clothes out when she gets back from school she appears to have nothing left that fits!!!

    Thanks for the list Dusty, I'm in again this week. Welcome to the thread Tea n Toast.

    I'm in again this week. Have decluttered OH to the station and walked the dog twice, cleaned out the car boot which was piled high with old tat and am now back in my comfortable pjs in an empty house. Fab. I'm pretending to do HH Paperwork ane emails but in reality reading threads and drinking coffee. Anyone else up for a HHC at 12.00?
    Better is good enough.
