    Pigpen I’m more on Noriday/Cerazette forstopping periods rather than just contraception. Your outlaws brings a packed lunch. I’d be tempted to fire them outside so theycould have a picnic (hopefully when it’s raining)

    Well, neither had that effect for me, my 2 sisters or my daughter... well.. until I got pregnant of course.. .that worked lol.

    They bring a flask of coffee too.. just to add humour to the situation!

    Apparently they can't come on Sunday when it is Squeaks birthday because.. they can't leave the dog for 6-7 hours..

    Manic Monday
    family room - Clean the windows
    Everything's Tuesday
    wipe all the cupboard doors and drawers - don't forget the handles
    wipe the microwave outside
    wipe the washer door seal
    Empty out ONE cupboard or drawer, wipe it out and put back only what is STILL useful once it's dry
    Start that CHRISTMAS shopping - list all the non-perishables you want to buy (eg cranberry jelly; cocktail cherries for the snowballs - I am channelling the 70s - check today's music!) and EITHER buy one item a week/fortnight OR have the list to hand ready for if you see a bargain!
    OR
    Plan for a day off sometime during the school hols or one weekend - so; check your meal plan and find ONE dish you can double up on - so that you can make two and freeze one! Check you have enough ingredients - this NEED NOT be done today - make it fit with your meal plan! This will be the meal you DON'T cook on your day off!

    And finally - don't forget your frog list - EAT A WHOLE FROG today!

    Well , seeing as I don't really want to start sanding and glossing, I appear to have achieved quite a lot!:rotfl:
    Now off to mop the rest of the floors downstairs!

    Welcome back to the returnees (I believe we have a few?)

    Thifty I'm one of the ones affected by lack of spoons - I have lupus - but there are several more Flyladies also in a similar boat.:o

    Doing my best today, somewhat hampered by Mr LW wfh today. However, lasagne has been made (be ready to eat in 10 mins or so) and cherry & coconut cake for his lunch box, and there's a loaf cooking in the BM as I type.:o

    Chappie from 3verest is here to fix the lock on the back door - it's been playing up, and got to a stage where I couldn't operate it, with my dodgy paws. It's still under guarantee:T so won't cost us; had to wait til a day when Mr LW was going to be here, as I can't cope with workmen on my own (yeah, I know, wimp):cool:

    Neveah glad the dogs are OK, That sort of thing is always at the back of my mind when we have guests, as some of my meds are pretty lethal stuff.
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    Made good progress upstairs. Haven't done DS2 room as it needs a good sort and fling some day soon.

    Going to just S&S shower room and make lunch then make a start on the mounds and mounds of paperwork all over the dining room.

    Still not made it to the shops, but DD has decided to do all her ironing so I'm leaving her to it. I've been dealing with online stuff so apart from making lunch I haven't moved off the sofa :o There is now a house alarm going off a few doors away so I can see us going out soon as its starting to get VERY annoying :mad:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    LW, sorry to hear about your condition. Your cooking sounds fab!
    I have been sorting out the stuff i got from the allotment the other day and some has gone off:(
    I have 3 trays of cherries to de stone this afternoon so I will do that while the undercoat dries, if I ever get it on! I have mopped myself upstairs now so I can't get in the garage for the paint or sander!:rotfl:

    My big frogs this week, other than decorating, are to tidy the garage and tidy the study/ craft room as it has become a dumping ground!
