Weekly Flylady Thread 14th May 2007

DH took DS to school this morning so I went out and did some food shopping.

Taking it easy today.
I need to do DS's room this afternoon.

Done 2 lots in the WM.
A general S&S in most rooms to keep us ticking over.
I have written a nice list of jobs to do and a schedule for over the weekend so I can get the house sorted before we go and not be hareing around on Tuesday morning trying to get everything sorted at the last minute.

Anyways, I've managed to get a couple of pages for the school website edited. I'm waiting on someone on another forum to help me with some javascript - I've asked there before but only got around to looking at the site today and it was just too complicated so I've asked for some more help Oh and as for googling images to use :rotfl: Not a chance! WAY to distracting so I'm going to get OH to help me out with that bit :rotfl:

If you need a hand with the javascript l might be able to help.

Another late post from me today, but I have being trying to keep way from the PC until I have some housework finished.

List today has looked like -

Dailies - [STRIKE]WM,DW,Beds, Lunches, Evening Meal, S&S Kitchen, S&S Bathroom[/STRIKE]

Finally Friday [STRIKE]Kids Room Blitz [/STRIKE](or spare rooms) I am tackling the girls playroom I haven't been in since before easter :eek:

Level One
[STRIKE]Strip beds [/STRIKE]and replace with fresh linen
Level Two
Vacuum Floor (even if it's just where you can see)
[STRIKE]Put anything back in it's place that isn't where it should be[/STRIKE]Level Three
[STRIKE]vacuum mattress
Wipe any sticky marks off walls and doors [/STRIKE]
Declutter Mission Task
[STRIKE]Time for the Friday Flylady Fling, aim for 27, if you can't find that many, well done, you are obviously making a difference[/STRIKE]I have gone way over 27 but at least the playroom is looking much cleaner


For those with kids or wear uniforms for work, try to get them in the wash tonight, makes the weekend easier.whites are in the machine at the mo Apart from the dailies and night time routines that's the lot for the week, of course if you still want to join us over the weekend you are more than welcome

FRIDAY EXTRA - Make sure you give yourself some ME time this weekend, even if it's just a nice relaxing bath or catching up with an old friend, go on you deserve it going with friends to see starlight express in edin tomorrow night, meal before and no kids until lunch time sunday:j


Away to finish the playroom and take in the bedding as it looks llike rain is due, unfortunately the playroom floor is full of sparkles one of my delightful girls has spilt some glitter (don't know where it came from as its banned in this house) so the wooden floor is all silver and shiny going to try to hoover it up first and then use a wet cloth not sure if this is the best method but it's the one I am going to try.

Bye for now

Managed to do the ironing today as well as all the list

Done some weeding in the garden too and went through more pages of book listings. All odd jobs done and dailies so can relax a bit the weekend.

Off to dog training tonight - need to run through the bronze test ready for next week with my class and help test the puppy class too so gonna be busy!

Seems like everyone else has been doing well too - I am sure it's the inspiration here! So thanks ....

Have a lovely evening everyone and get some quality time in !!! off to prep dinner ( very quick)

Hi guys :hello:

Wow you've all been mega busy :T

Well what a day, Internet wouldn't come on this morning so I've faffed about all day trying to fix it grrrrrrr, in the end I had to disable then enable the ethernet which worked - strangely enough, anyway not done ANY flying house looks ok though, just stuck the uniforms in the washer which has got a horrible whiff, gonna look up the threads for pongy washers. My cars finally died a death so now I'm also without transport It's such a shock walking to places

Aimeelister wow your jobs sounds super interesting, how fun to have your name on the door :T

No list to report, done the dailies and that's about it. x

Glad folks are feeling better today, but Shirleypark if you're coming down with something don't do too much.

Easy Friday at work today, all except one of the bosses was away and when he went to lunch I ended up as the 'responsible officer'. So I took myself off to the shed to peck away at the mountain of junk again just in case I had to deal with any mutiny. What a coward! Andthen he treated us to cakes. A good day all round!

Spare room isn't in need of attention today so I might just do some weeding now.
I also need to sort the arrangements for the weekend. Off to Cumbria for a get together. Once a year the mums and aunts and girl cousins and hangers on (we're a large sprawling family) get together for a meal and afternoon/evening happy houring (and they all like a drink!) and gossipping. It's a good way of catching up as since my grandma died we don't have the focal point of the family grapevine.

I'll pop back later if I've anything to report.

Happy evening if you're doing fun stuff.
