Weekly Flylady Thread 24th March 2014

YORKSHIRELASS

Morning all

Been up with DS1 in the night so I feel like death.

Have promised I will take DS2 shopping later (all the big shops are a 45 minute drive away) as he needs a few bits for cricket and doesnt want to wait until the Easter hols. Then I have to do a training session for work tomorrow.

Have only really managed the basics this week but the house isnt too bad, which kind of proves this flylady stuff works.

Will need to do better next week though!

I love my Sebo!

Thank you! I use a lot of different vacuum cleaners at various customers houses and most are dysons, but tbh I am often underwhelmed. One lady has a Sebo that I'd forgotten about and it's fantastic but rather large for our needs, we're in a flat so have limited storage space (our airing cupboard has to house the vac, all the towels, the water meter cupboard, the ironing board, two airers and the central heating boiler :eek:), plus I always have to take my vac to work with me on Thursdays and car is teeny tiny AAAANYWAY, a quick google has turned up the Felix model which gets excellent reviews and should fit our needs very well. Compared to a mid level Dyson it was relatively cheap too, I've gone for the premium model with the turbo hand brush and the parquet floor tool so all bases and floor surfaces should be covered!

dancemum, I had a Henry myself before I moved and loved him on the downstairs hardwood floors and tiles but I found him a bit difficult on carpets, possibly because I didn't vacuum nearly enough This was in my pre-flying days, I would hasten to add.

Plan for today it to get cracking then do early banking and April shopping whilst have DH at home with car. he'll love it. Made banana loaf yesterday - a bit stodgy as too many bananas in it but will be good with custard for a pudd!!

Have a good day everyone. xx

PS I have a Gtech Airam - absolutely love it - so light ( and quick as no plugging in - but it doesn't have any tools.

Hello ladies. Sorry for my absence, there aren't enough hours on the day. I need a time turner like in Harry P0tter.

Kids to get to school, Tesco, work until 2. The engineer is coming to fix the oven at 12. Nobody will be in. Why is life so complicated?

I'll try to do some flying when I get back from work.

FizzWhizz

If I knew the answer to your question I could definitely afford to have someone to do my flying for me, Mumto5

JTTOU, I looked at the Airram but vetoed it for the lack of tools. It looks great though!

Morning all

Started the day with 20 minutes ironing. Just going to load the WM and then have a shower and eat a couple of frogs.

..... and is back

Computer has been temperamental for several weeks, hence lack of contact, but all seems to be well now.

Flying has been taking place, but more needs to be done, so here goes ...

Hope to post back later.

Auntie Sceb - unfortunately he doesn't have any accrued hols as he used it up before he went off :[[ but thanks for the thought :]

Dusty - he'll have to be ok, we have no choice

Plans for today involve serious amounts of washin machine use, tumbe dryer use [its very foggy and damp here today] a bit of hoovering and then whatever DH wants to do which may involve a lot of walking - really can't be bothered with it all today :[
