Weekly Flylady Thread 19th August 2013

The garden hose has been left on all night. The garden now resembles a bog. I sank into the ground up to my ankles when I put the washing on the line.

Plumber has been. £180 for a new fan for the boiler. He's jiggled about with the immersion heater and we now have hot water.

My hair is lovely and shiny having been washed in freezing cold water. Silver linings???

washing machine repair engineer booked for Wednesday.

am currently washing a load of stuff by hand - I have dug out the 25 year old spin dryer from the garage and pressed it into service.

It has been a week since DD1 moved into the small bedroom. Although she hasn't got it fully sorted yet (DS a bit slow in removing some of his stuff) it is immaculate.

DD2 has the larger bedroom all to herself now. It is a PIT!

DD1 is feeling smug - she always said she was not the messy one.

My washing machine is making more noise than the planes taking off at Stansted. Engineer coming tomorrow!

I'm going to start the ironing. I may be some time.....

Looks like you've edited the [color] tag of the end of the text when copying... better explanation may be along soon

Managed to tidy a good chunk of the kitchen last night due to batch cooking of veggie chili and tomato and veg sauce so hopefully will be able to Dys0n the whole flat tonight. Fingers crossed, eh?

:coffee: for all, help y'self. Leave some spoons though.

I'm in again this week, quite glad it's the same as last week, I feel one step ahead already. Will also mean that I actually put the extractor fan cover back on after cleaning it last monday.

Delilah being registered on Wednesday and Noel at vet on Thursday.. I can't do more than 1 thing a day without a few hours napping which is not practical

Need to drop Moomins boot to have the raise done today.. not sure whether to send OH on his own with the excuse 'the midwife is meant to be coming' .. the boys are at opticians at 2:30 so I will need to walk there :eek: and possibly back again.. a whole 2 minutes walk for someone normal... It took 20 minutes to get there last time and 35 to get back!!!!

Bed stripped and sheets in the wash.. they were grotty.

Need to find the receiver for the baby monitor!!!

Ok I have done a lot of cleaning and hubby and eldest even helped and we gave the house a good going over.

Situation I'm upset about has got worse and don't know what to think now
