    Morning everyone.

    Had a quick swish around when I got in from work last night.
    Will be the same today. Though I could do one of the drawers in the living room as well and start it properly tomorrow.

    Hugs,spoons, and sticks where needed.

    Morning all. Yesterday before the paid stuff I dusted HSL and quickly hoovered through the house.

    This morning I'm going to do the decluttering thing in the cupboards in the LR. There aren't many so it shouldn't need more than the hour I have before walking the dogs and the paid stuff.

    Have a great day everyone.

    Good morning flylady friends.

    Thanks for the new thread Dusty I'm in.

    I'm working today today and I worked yesterday. Flying has taken a backseat.

    There is a bags up school collection today so I have 2 large black bags of flinging to contribute. Very pleased with my ruthlessness!

    DH left for the lands of CY a couple of hours ago. He's only away one night. I'm babysitting tonight. And have my friends boys as per usual on a Tuesday.

    Packed lunches to assemble. Best get started!
  • Feeling a bit tired and grumpy this morning. One of my colleagues is off sick so I am covering her job as well as my own and of course it wouldnt be a quiet week at work would it?

    I am doing extra hours today too so will be late home. Had to take DS1 to the podiatrist yesterday after work which was a waste of time.

    So I am behind with stuff at home and I have got loads to do on my second job. Didnt sleep very well last night thinking about it all.

    Anyhow, sorry this is all a bit whingey, best get a shower and get moving. I have managed to sort out some washing this morning, get the dishwasher on and have a bit of a tidy in the kitchen. Will make sure I wash up before I leave or it will still be waiting for me when I get in!

    Ok, so more than an hour is needed but isn't available. Mostly I've just done shredding, clearing my piles of notes from a cupboard. Ah well, its a start.

    Kids having breakfast (DH supervising/stopping any arguments - feisty lot they are!) I've done my pre-running stretches as going out for a quick run after dropping DS off to school then shower, a bit of paid stuff and Knit & Natter then more paid stuff. Then flying - honest!!

    Bossymoo hope you enjoyed your breakfast soup!

    Yorkshirelass hope today goes well for you.

    Best go now, have a good day all .....

  • Morning all - I'm late again!
    Got to do Monday's basics too so will get those done as soon as showered - then onto Tuesday's rest of list and back to more paper:eek:

    Tremendous Tuesday Basics
    S&S toilets and sinks
    Hoover and mop the bathroom floor
    shine mirrors

    Reception Room Declutter
    Today's aim is to deal with all the stuff that is hidden away under the sofa, in cupboards and drawers and stuffed in corners. Concentrate on one area at a time. - only got two small drawers and a bookcase in DR - so will be ruthless with those first then onto the paper stuffed large box - at least it is neat when i put its lid on:rotfl:

    Before looking in/under ask yourself what you think is in there and do you need it.
    Empty everything out, how much of the stuff had you remembered was there?
    Hoover or dust inside/underneath
    Don't just blindly put it all back if you didn't know it was there do you need it?

    [STRIKE]

    Wash any soft furnishing that need it.


    15 minutes reading some of the pile of
    magazines/newspapers etc - see if one can now be recycled, passed on.

    [/STRIKE]



    Love Hugs sticks and spoons to all needing them. Hoping that today will be more productive than yesterday - but I am hurting with all the sorting so just might have to declutter something on TV too!!
