Weekly Flylady Thread 18th November 2013

just_the_two_of_us

Hi all - quick report/moan - :mad: walked in freezing cold to nearest Mr T only to find it is too small to stock all I needed - I even had a reserve list - so I put it all back and went to B**ts to buy a Sanct**ry gift tin for DF's forthcoming 40th. Brilliant offer started today!

DH is now leaving work early to take me to big Mr T so I fear today will have to be a write off as far as jobs are concerned. Also calling into Sbobs to use double points weekend for Xmas beer.

If we are back soon enough will do some bits and report back later.

Well all I have had time to do so far this morning is restore some kind of order to my kitchen and dining room! Off to a chocolate making workshop in a bit so will have to crack on with Wed/Thurs/Fri lists later and tomorrow!

Hi all

Glad to hear that Royal Paws has eaten a little something.

Lamewolf It sounds to me as though you are missing the having a dog around and exhausted from going out last night, at a rough guess. (((Hugs)))

I'm sure you're right.:o The dog situation will change next Friday when Amber arrives for a two-night stay; the exhaustion I just have to live with.:o Also, the carpal/cubital tunnel problems are giving me some real jip, plus I have the worst bout of cystitis I've had for a long time. Like, OUCHY!! *whimpers pathetically* Still, I've sent Mr LW on a mission for cranberry juice in his lunch break today, so maybe that'll help.:o

I'm doing virtual Flying today; loads of computer maintenance stuff; also hope to make inroads into the virtual part of my November Challenge.The old Windows XP pc is updating anti-virus protection as I type.

Leaflets delivered, chatted with 3 neighbours whilst at it. Put another sheet on the line. Time for a snack now, RP did well and had a little lunch.

Then an hour's flying before the boys get home from school.

Hello!

My name is Catherine and I have attempted the FlyLady plan several times over the last few months... but have always fallen by the wayside within a day or two (good intention's and all that jazz). So, I have decided that I need some motivation from like minded people to help me get into gear... will you be those like minded people please?:blushing:

We have just moved house so there are boxes everywhere (actually, that's a lie - we moved two months ago, but there are still boxes everywhere), my maternity leave is just about to end so I will be spending quite a bit of time trying to rebuild my copywriting business, and I'm trying to just organise my time around two small children and finding it a bit difficult at the moment.

I would like to jump in from Monday onwards, as I have a pile of work to go through this weekend... sooo, hope you all have a good weekend and see you Monday!

Welcome Catherine - yes this is just the place to get loads of support - I only joined a very short time ago and can vouch for that.:) Thanks everyone

Another good thing is you won't drown in F lady emails and a little in each room, each day, to me, is better than concentrating on one or two areas for a week - you soon notice a big difference. Good luck.
I'm off to start Friday's list now!!

Welcome catlew I am quite new too and everyone is lovely.

Hair chopped whoop! Not keen on the whole side fringe situation i have going on but am sure it will grow on me or it will grow out lol.

Boy dog has been sick in his bed, i have a feeling the children have fed him a small toy, I have kicked the dogs out the back and the boys in the living room, How do i clean it without bringing up my lunch hhhhmmmmmm. Well at least the floor is due to be mopped anyway.

mrs-moneypenny

welcome Catherine, lovely to have you join us

been work, weve eaten and DH has gone back to his work.
ive been sent a new book to read and answer some questions on that could spell disaster for any plans to clean for the next couple of weeks as ive been asked to read it as quicklt as i can.

better go and do something before i sucumb to the temptation of a couple of pages
