Weekly Flylady Thread 4th February2013

Washing rounded up and sorted. WM and TD been fed this afternoon. Kitchen been S/S and then redone after DD made chocolate cakes with her new pal.

DH is home and a different person to the one that was chucking up on Wednesday morn. Dont have complete answers yet but was something to do with gall bladder. Ultrasound was inconclusive and CT scan that was arranged within an hour of the U/S showed something the the consultant said he'd never seen anything like it before :eek: so as he is well enough to be home he is, and they are going go have a multiteam case conference early next week. Oh and he's lost a stone in weight which he is pleased about.

Plan for tomorrow is WM and TD, food shop,visit friend for birthday, hoover and dust up and down and S/S of kitchen and bathroom.

Cuppa and bed for me in a bit so

Fred.. welcome to our fred.. Our lcd screen gets pretty grotty with pesty prints too.. microfibre cloth and a splosh of vinegar seems to work.

Don't worry about when the rooms come round you will soon get into the swing of things just go with it.. we are all about non-stress.

Valli

For the bird fans amongst us (Natty and Ionafan spring to mind - possibl Dusty too?) I want to brag (again).

Pleas ebear in mind that the feathered friends which land in Valliland end up as cat munchies one way or another...so I have to spot the birds as I roam,

well I think I've trumped the heron...

only had a BARN OWL nearly hit the Vallimobile as I drove across the moors to take DS to see his true love....

I've just been reading the first page and I wondered if the list is the same every week or whether it changes?

Welcome!
It does vary a little, but biggies like the kitchen tend to be mon/tue.

Just start with level one and see how you go. Week 2 then feels a little easier, and so on. Baby steps. Read the welcome guide on post 1, there is no need to do everything. And you are still welcome if you follow your own lists, as many do.

:beer:

Well, no snow here yet but it is forecast today. We are supposed to be meeting our WAY group this aft at an activity centre. The older ones doing bowling / laser quest, and soft play for the littlies. Then a meal after. It does depend on the weather as to travelling, even though its only 10-15 miles away. But if we do go, we'll set off early as there is an outlet shopping centre next door, with a clarks shop, so I could get the kiddies feet measured.

Decorated dads cake last night, yellow and blue in the end which of course is the Leeds United colours so he will like that. I hope!

Today will be a case of staying on top of things, and getting some laundry done before / if we go out.

Have a peaceful Sunday, all.

Morning all

I have slipped of the wagon... again... I will try harder next week

Valli I'm not a regular bird fan poster but a barn owl .... wow!!!

Fredula welcome , do what you can when you can and it all makes a difference.

Kaz glad DH is home and so much better, great news.

Bonnie enjoy your coffee date - deep breath, relax and have fun!!

Optimistic Mummy - 48 items :eek: - I was pleased that I've done my 2!!!

Nicki great that DD is being so helpful. My 10 yo DD likes to bake but the kitchen gets a bit, um, 'challenging' to clear up afterwards but at least we have fun.

Rowan glad that you've had such a wonderful time and been spoilt so much - everyone should get spoilt a lot more frequently imho


DS still in bed playing Angry Birds on iPad and I'm going to make a cuppa. Plan for today is to do some baking, try to get him reading a bit (got new books from library), play some games .... nice things. Oh, got 2 typing jobs to fit in too and some other work but that can be done whilst he watches a DVD. DH back this evening so going to have to evict DS back to his bedroom.

Good morning all. TD on and will put DD's bedding in wash when I have emptied the WM. Numerous cups of tea drunk so far this morning, always up early after a night out. Was a good night but I had to leave before the rest!!!
Plans for today after washing the bedding is dinner and rugby!!! I might try and hoover upstairs while doing the dailies though!!!!

Hugs to all in need xx

and hello to newbies and returners

Tipping down with rain here so not sure if my planned delivery of manure will come. If it does then the rest of the day will be spent moving it in the rain :cool:.
