    Good morning all

    Thanks for the lists Natty and Dusty. One more job to add to myown bathroom and it's a little bit of a frog. No less than 4 lightbulbs went from Thursday-Saturday and as replacing them means me up a stepladder, I've been putting it off. Actually, thinking on, a light has gone in the kitchen as well, so a bit more frog might be consumed .... I suppose you could say I had a lightbulb moment (groan):idea:

    Other than the list, today will probably consist of dot-to-dotting - but must not forget to type up my Toots list. It's handwritten at the moment, but there are some amendments to be made to it.

    Hope to post later.

    Morning all. I'm in again, thanks Natty. I have an hour before I need to pop out this morning, so I'm going to start on the LR (just to show LW I can do flying unprompted!) and will see what I can do from the lists later.

    Have a great day everyone.
    Spend less now, work less later.
  • Morning all - I'm in. The bathroom has been a little neglected over Xmas as I was first in rather than last in - if you know what I mean! Did a couple of s and s but needs a good deep clean now!!

    Must find my new diary and send yet another tax claim form off to HMRC - monthly until end of tax year as finished work in September.
    HAve a good day everyone. xx

    I'm in please Natty; many thanks for the list.

    Froddy, now that you've acknowledged the BD is getting worse it does sound like you need to go to the GP. Thinking of you.

    Morning all

    Confessions of a lapsed flylady. Over the last couple of years I have been coming on here for a bit and then somehow it all slips so I am determined to keep it going this year.

    So back to it this morning. Have made stew and put it in sc, have washed up and will quickly dry them before I go out so the kitchen is left tidy.

    Bathroom not too bad but I have a lot of other things to do after my paid work this morning. Could have done without being up in the night with DS.

    Anyhow, got to run, shower, dressed, chivvy DS2 along and then out of the door!

    My cleaners are coming tomorrow, but they don't have time to do the extra jobs - just floors, dusting and bathrooms. So I'm crossing off those bits and adding my 'not done' list from yesterday.

    Thanks for the new list Natty. I'm in.

    Froddy Sorry your being chased by the BD. I hope your GP can help you see the way forward.

    Getting the kids up this morning was harder than getting a camel through the eye of a needle.

    I'm working 10-2 so 2 x HHC before school and after work should get today's list done. I need to Hoover the stairs as someone has walked up them eating cake with no plate, there are crumbs everywhere.

    Loads of washing to get through but that will have to wait for tomorrow when I'm home.

    I'll report back on any progress later.
