Weekly Flylady Thread 2nd September 2013

MinnieMousesMummy

Good morning everyone, This week has not gone to plan so far as I had hoped to start flying on Monday but on reflection was probably not a wise idea as I also started back at college on Monday so I have not got much done as yet.

My list for this week

Monday Mayhem ~ Krazy Kitchen
Clear the floor of unnecessary gibble
Mop/hoover the floor
Shine the sink and draining board. Make those taps shine and twinkle..
Wipe down worktops and wipe down all small electricals.
Rehome anything that is out of place
Clean inside the microwave. A good tip is to heat up a cup of water in the microwave - the steam shifts all the yukky stuff on the microwave
Clean the window and windowsill. Rehome anything that shouldn't be there
Sort through your cookery books/magazines. Are there any that you don't need that are just taking up space? Rehome them to the local charity shop...

Clean the light switches
Clear one drawer in the dressing table/chest of drawers

Hugs Helen and loads of healing vibes to Mr Jelly x

Dot dressed
girls fed
5 kicked out/deposited at school
Baby still in bed.. she got there at 7:15 after keeping me awake from 2:45am.. toad!!
Cat checked on.. he is fine but crying to go out, I'm going to speak to the vet in a minute and see if he is ok to be outside in the rabbit run (without the rabbit not that he would do anything to him, the rabbit is more likely to bother the cat!!)

Dot has been sobbing at the door because DS3 went to school 'Doodloo gone, doodloo back!' while laid on the floor in the hallway.. then we had bumped heads (also Dots fault) so more tears..

Off to make a cuppa then I'll speak to the vet and crack on with kicking DS2.

:rotfl: Tempting the missing one back, or rewarding the other two for good behaviour, Dusty? :rotfl:
So pleased to hear better news for your friend.

Helen, my thoughts and prayers are with you and Mr Jelly. Pop in and see us whenever you can.

Froddy, thinking of your pupil. My friend's mother (91) is on the verge of being sectioned. It's very hard on the families.

kerri, it is never too early for breakfast with cake - the French and Germans are masters of the art

So far this morning I have
- finished writing a report and agenda
- decluttered breakfast
- started WM
- moved the laundry basket and new chest of drawers.
I still have to
- finish 5 display boards
- make phonecalls about choir and U3A
- look for a staircase light

Two of the garden gang have arrived and are waiting for their boss who is bringing more bricks - hopefully they will finish the work today and we will just have the carpenter (brother of the kitchen fitter) here tomorrow, sorting out the problems which the previous carpenter didn't want to deal with :mad: The plaster has nearly dried out in the lounge so we shall be cracking open the pot of emulsion very soon

Nicky healing mouth vibes for you

Decided to do 45 minutes in the garden, deadheading and a little light pruning and colleting some foxglove seeds.

Hi all

Helenj hugs to you and your DH, you'll both be in my thoughts

Well today is my 'me mountain challenge' day :eek:
I'm [STRIKE]nervous[/STRIKE]/[STRIKE]apprehensive[/STRIKE] not sure how to explain it. I also feel a bit silly as I do a lot of stuff on my own so don't understand my nerves.

Dinner is in the SC, just need to do the mash potato (the food not the dance) when I get in from the paid stuff.
Must cut the grass tonight as well as we are forecast rain.

Have a great day all
