Morning, I'm trying to be in to. I can feel a bout of BD coming on but I'm trying to fight it
DD1 has decided she's too ill to do her work placement today :cool: told her she'll have to deal with the phone calls herself.
DD2 is running late so I'll be dropping her at school in a bit.
My mum and I are having our hair cut this morning. I'm very nervous, new hairdresser and first cut in a year
So I'll be back later with some sort of list0 -
Morning all, i'm back in again this week (thanks dusty for the lists). Today DD turns 12, we done all celebrating over the weekend and i have to say she got pretty much everything off her christmas list so i'll have to have a rethink.
KD has moved back in. It's abit of a weird one but i know what i'm at (plus his parents have enough on). I know he'll muck up again so this isn't taking him back more of a floating along. I just need time to get things sorted for me and the kids. I need to get the house cleared out (attic overloaded), save money ect. It's a WIP.
Anyway i'm in full force this week plus i've loads of charity stuff to do, 100 goodie bags need filling with stuff i haven't got yet. :eek:
Right cuppa and i'll make a start....:D“Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it.”0 -

A good start to the day. I've:
S&s'd bathroom
Sorted clothes on airer and put away
Emptied all bins
Hoovered and swept through house
Cleaned dining table and nest of tables
Wiped paw prints off patio doors
Wiped hearth
Wiped paw prints off front door
Wiped down fridge (inside & out), both freezers, & wm (did my best with the drawer as I couldn't get it out with one hand)
Still to do:
Full day of paid stuff
Dog walking
Dentist
Work surfaces will have to be on catch up list and mopping is beyond me at the moment.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
good morning
Frog chomped - I have phoned the dentistThey managed to fit me in this week at a time convenient to me
(when I have no kids!)
Miss T was late again this morning. I wasn't too chuffed when she turned up with her scooter, and her brothers had their scooters too (I am picking them up from school tonight, along with 2 others). It is enough to remind kids that they have all bags, coats, lunchboxes, jumpers, gloves, etc, without having to worry about scooters!! Not to mention arguments and lack of space. The mum said she will take them home with her when she has dropped them off at school (they were already 20 mins late when they came to me! :eek:)
OK. Miss T and I have had breakfast (her 2nd one, of course!), so we may go out for a bit of fresh air with the dog while the weather is ok (2 birds and all that!)
Will report back later0 -
I was debating whether to slip in and hope no-one noticed me or pretend to be new, but then I spotted several familiar names.
So
I am a lapsed flylady with a house that needs reclaiming (and as I live alone no-one but me to blame:o)
please may I be readmitted?

Thanks ladies. I fell off mid week last week then did some stuff over the weekend. I'm still going through the piles that have built up causing chaos but there is progress. I want to get the dining area cleared ASAP as I need my new table up so I can empty the caravan stuff from my car into the garage....One day I might be more organised...........
