flylady.com - basically for people like me who are overwhelmed by everything!! This is a great website that tells you how to sort your house etc. It is a little overpoweringly american but once you get over this it's great! Have a look - i'm not very good at describing it!
Sort my house? Now that would be a miracle. Definately need to check that out, thanks

I love it! It's not exactly sorted my house lol but it has helped me feel much calmer and seeing that little bits do make a difference - bit like getting debt free I guess! I did buy a timer after reading the book and use it all the time now - you'll see what i mean soonCCCS DMP:Feb 07

Thanks for the gentle reminder on flylady - I think I may need it (but not now - I'm too busy!).
I haven't had time to read your whole thread, but I'm glad things seem to be a little easier for you.
Better go - the stuff I need to do won't do itself!:eek: What if the hokey cokey is what it's all about? :eek:Official "Bring back Mark and Lard NOW! or else (please)" Member 160 -
Having a flylady, oooh what's the word???, revisit? here at the moment, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't! I do like the emails at the moment, although only get them on the daily digest thingy as I can't be doing with that much reminder that I need to sort the house lol!CCCS DMP:Feb 07

Hi Sea ..the kiddies are gorgeous..glad that you had a lovely day out...
Tackle the OH tommorrow but tonight just relax and enjoy your evening.0 -
Thanks
Hada shockin night's sleep - OH drank too much so was very obnoxious in the night when I asked him if DS had woken up as I heard him closing his door and then what he was doing downstairs - lots of crashing etc. So I moved to DD's room to try to sleep but it was a little disturbed. Did manage to sleep a little before DS got up on the sofa but (and feel terrible about this) DD came in munching something - I asked what and she said the garlic bread????!!!!!!??? OH had bought garlic bread pizza on the way home (so safe to say he spent a small fortune last night then) and dd had seen it before I did and had a munch!! Managed a little laugh about it til got v annoyed!! Anyway, enough of the monaing, he's in bed for the forseeable future and I can get on with stuff.
So to do today:
*Mark those blooming yr 9 assessments
*another load of washing and dry it and iron and put away!!
*2 more flylady missions today
*attend to bushwacker eyebrows (honestly, I'll forget unless I write it down!)
*plan something exciting for hte yr 9s tomorrow, final unit on Christianity so they'll be sooo enthusiastic about that! Might do blockbusters.
*Take photos of the lawnmower
*get a new hoover bag and hoover upstairs - getting a little too much up there now
*Prepare clothes for DS and me for tomorrow.
*Maybe write a little card to my mum thanking her for coming over yesterday - it was so lovely to see her.
I think that's it for now - will update with mroe if more come up during the day.

Sea, I asked my daughter (Yr 8) if she had any suggestions for an interesting lesson on Christianity. She looked blank, then said "give them a chocolate in the shape of God".Total debt: 1 January 2007 £[strike]49,387.79[/strike] 1 January 2012 £[STRIKE]19,312.85[/STRIKE] 1 August 2012 £11,517.620
