    Make that 4..:rotfl: Sorry Linda!

    I'm off to work shortly and I had intended to garden later today but guess what.. Its raining again. I'll find some indoor stuff to do instead. I'm completely overhauling the spare room and did some more flinging last night. I didn't get my ME time either. Hmm, maybe a pamper day is called for..

    Have a good morning all, I'm around all week end so I'll be back later.

    Morning all

    One load of washing on the line, but it's very grey out there - doesn't look like a drying day.

    Potatoes peeled for lunch and washing up done and worktops wiped over. Living room tidied round and yesterday's paper etc chucked. Can't do much else until DH gets up.

    So I suppose I'll have to force myself to stay on the computer :D

    Great thread idea! I see you have been doing these for some time! I plan to check in with you for next week. When's the new thread posted? I've been trying to fly for 2½ years now but at the moment all I am doing is flailing, never mind fluttering! I do have one or two good habits gained from reading Flylady's site and emails though, for the past 2 years I have faithfully made my bed the instant I get out of it which has been a wonderful way to instantly make the room tidier. It's a shame my enthusiasm hasn't rubbed off onto the kids. Then again they probably look at my room and don't see the tidy bed but all the boxes of ebay stuff and my hubby's collection around the room, oh and all my junk tossed by the wall on my side of the bed :o .
    I am a stay at home mum to an 11yo and 14yo and usually spend the mornings on the pc then hubby gets home before 12pm and after that it's usually watching movies together while we have lunch and maybe a bit more time on the pc when he has his sleep before I get my son from school.

    Well I'll make this all for now, I plan to make myself do your level ones and if I get chance I will do more.

    Afternoon all. Pouring down here too. I'm currently on a phone call mission to get a song for my friend's Dad's funeral on Tuesday. You'll never walk alone, he was a big football fan. So far no sign so may end up out shopping Monday for it. I also need a new black top, can't find the one I had think it got torn.

    witchypoo new thread is posted Sunday night but I will post the link on this thread when it is done.

    Just going to do my list will post in a mo.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Clean floors downstairs, vacuum and mop
    Tidy landing as it's a mess

    Afternoon,

    Just flitting today - nothing major. I'm still pulling the spare room to bits and flinging stuff ( and I thought I was all flunged out!). Went to see the landlord who doesn't mind me fitting a cat flap, it's going to be life changing if they use it. Only beacuse the current arrangement indulges them rather than me. Sad isn't it!
    Merrily pootling and pottering with no real targets is very relaxing. Not even going to clean the smoke-alarm-setting-off grill pan today, it'll still be there on Monday!

    Hope you join us on Monday Witchypoo (and any lurkers), can't recommend it highly enough for getting stuff sorted.

    Power going on and off must be a pain in the whatsit Lil_me, it used to be fun when I was little but frustrating when you need to do stuff.

    Off to flit some more, back when I need another cuppa. Enjoy your afternoons.
