Weekly Flylady Thread 16th September 2013

System

Oh dear I'm falling behind with flying and posting
Sorry folks I'll try to catch up and I'll post a list later if I get time. I did S&S the loo before work and I've picked up DD, shopped, cooked dinner, washed up, etc since work but it's already gone 8!
My friend gave me a huuuuge bag of Bramleys so I'm trying to prep them to freeze - we've made 2 crumbles so far and they're delicious
Also want to try and make some jam but only a small batch as I haven't many jars.
Hugs all round

AnW'smum I have liked your messy church. I am hoping to start one up in our church in the not too distant future so thanks for the link.

If you need any help you know who to shout It's great fun and smiles are worth all the effort

Small black bitey cat has chosen this precise moment to come and visit, just as I was tying spare linen into bundles for temporary storage. Cue much pouncing, rummaging through tape ends and playing. Not a lot of actual bundle-tying happening, after all.

Ok, let's have a look at how much I have actually managed to achieve this week :eek:!
Ok, not too bad. DH has just been to Asda and brought me home a Danish pastry and a MASSIVE box of maltesers- which I love! .
Didn't do any painting today, spent the entire evening playing Lego with DS. Far more important I think .
Just watching restoration home as I'm trying to clear the clutter from the sky+ box.
Need to actually get some stuff to the charity shop tomorrow too. Once again, house looks a mess downstairs but I know it won't take too long to get it all in order .
Kitchen, DW needs stacking again so when this prog has finished, I will stick WM on clean cycle and empty and stack DW.
Night all .

Evening all,
messy church liked, not that news feeds waaaaay up North will be of much help but I might be able to steal some ideas to take to the village association that I'm looking to join when I move!

Not got much done from the list tonight, had a couple of things to do and needed to visit BNQ for some bits we needed. Didn't get home till gone 8 and hadn't eaten.

However I took the opportunity to call $ky about the house move and how 'unhappy I am with the value for money and what I need to make sky work for me'. Upshot is they are organising the move for phone, broadband and tv. New 2TB box for free (£199 for new customers!), half price HD/3D for a year and multiroom for only £2.50/month for a year which means I no more have to put up with football on my tv as I've had to the last couple of hours! haha
Happy LJ!
Not so happy with the BF in my ear through the call, he's adamant that $ky won't do the install themselves, especially the multiroom cabling. He does installs like this and is very fussy about the cables haha Said he can sort that with the engineer on moving day, I'm staying out of it!

Did have a quick read through but can't remember all, sorry!
Hugs to those who need them and woohoo to those with good news
