Bossy Moo Is there anything specific the FlyLadies and Gents can do that might help make the day a little easier?

Not sure what you mean..... is it my reference to the "C" word? That's the money-drain holiday that comes a few days after Yule, and that as soon as someone mentions it I stick my fingers in my ears and go LA LA LA LA LA very loudly.:rotfl: I wondered if maybe you thought I disliked cats; I wouldn't have one as a pet (or I'd have to buy shares in Kl33nex as I'm allergic to cat-fur) but I like them well enough.:o

My mistake - I thought you meant cats. The other matter is on hold until 1 December.

Been at a Governor Conference all day, looking forward to chilling out with xfactor and strictly next. No flying being done all weekend here. Off to Ideal Home tomorrow so don't worry if the list is not until later I'll get to it.

Have had a great day out with DD. Lots of freebies including ride on the wheel in York. Got back to find that DH had not done shopping (despite working in a shop) so have just had to pop out again. Just put a load in WM. Time to give doggies attention.

I know. I didn't say the issue hadn't been taken out of storage, dusted off, checked for minor maintenance problems and had a test run in true Flylady preparedness style. All of the annual pre-seasonal checks have been carried out and it seems the equipment is in full working order. It is now on hold until 1 December.

Empty all the bins
Despite the promises decades ago that we were heading for a paperless world it doesn’t seem to have arrived! So declutter paperwork, from files, intrays, magazines etc. Do you still have the receipts from last Christmas stuffed in a drawer? Leaflets for places you will never visit; recipes you will never make get rid of it all.

Thankyou x but I don't think there is really. It is what it is, and it's no worse than any other day, we will still be in the same position the next day.
Maybe if the flyladies wanted to light a candle and just spare a thought for those kiddies out there who have lost a parent, or are living with a seriously ill one? It's frightening how common it is, and as a mum, you don't want your little ones to be exposed to those things at such a tender age. But it happens x.

Or you can come and do my ironing

ETA miss little moo day 3 of potty training, no accidents! :T
