Sloblady thread

my ironing pile has decreased dramatically - not because i have ironed it - but i have had to wear it as the washing machine died 2 weeks ago and the new one wont be here till wednesday - then i will have to pull my finger out an do the mounds of laundry that are reaching epic proportions.Dogs return to eat their vomit, just as fools repeat their foolishness. There is no more hope for a fool than for someone who says, "i am really clever!"0

The surveyor came on Friday. I explained that I was in the middle of a big clear out and had set up the spare room for decluttering. I had put everything from all the other rooms in there. She commented that a spare room means you can keep the rest of your house tidy and just shut the door on it.
Own up. Which one of you is the surveyor?Some days, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps....

Sitting here in my coat and boots as I was supposed to leave the house 15 mins ago but found this thread. Please, please help me, I'm a refugee from that other place - you know, the one where they're all perfect/ I'm not, I want to be here! I've found my place in life! Have to run...well meander as I'm going to be late now anyway but as the man said, I'll be back. Soon as I can. Thank you0

There have been tears; tears of laughter from reading this thread. I don't know what came over me, however after reading this thread for most of yesterday I felt somehow compelled to go and clear out the remains of my holiday gear this morning and put the suitcases away.
My apologies for this moment of madness, I am sure normal service will resume tomorrow.
Here's a tip: if there's any danger that I might have to do the washing-up myself I hide any really greasy pans in the oven and then bring them out and leave them on the stovetop for my OH next time he's washing-up.
was totally going to do the dishes in a mo - totally going to use this tip as it is in fact his turn (has been since saturday now)....
loving the sloblady, as I will clearly never be a flylady...

Oh Dear found my way here as think I must own up to this sadly
A friend of mine stopped off at my house on her way to taking her elderly mum out.
The old lady was looking out of my kitchen window and said lovely views of the hills from here.
I didn't say anything thing as I thought poor old dears eyes must be bad.As I have no hills here as we are in Norfolk !
When they left I looked out of the window to see if I could see what she had seen.:eek::eek::eek:
Shock horror when I realised it was fly spray that I had sprayed sometime in the summer and it had got on the window and looked like the Alps :eek::eek::eek: So bad honestly cant believe I hadn't noticed it :rotfl:
So do I fit the type of ladyWho belongs on this thread (As btw its still there) :rotfl:

Housework - what women do and nobody notices until they stop doing it...Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.0
