Weekly Flylady Thread 9th June 2014

Dustykitten

JIL welcome - I had a young blackbird in the kitchen and dining room last week, their flapping is really loud inside.

Morning all

Work up too hot so have come down for a cuppa and a little paperwork, going to put WM on too and see if it is done before I head out to the paid stuff.

Morning all. Thanks for the list Natty, and lovely colour electricals. I'm in again and up especially early to make a start on todays list.

Have a great day everyone.

Good morning all.
I'm hopefully here this week. I need to keep up with the list as it's getting more of a tip the last few weeks.
This morning i have made tea for me and dd1 and put the dryer on as she has no under ware (I'm not mean, she has loads but can't find it in her tip!)
Today I need to...
sort letters/pay bills/sort a few things online
catch up with some washing
shopping for various coloured clothes for kids for world cup day (each year is being a different team, I need an England, Argentina, Brazil and Greece, luckily the eldest isn't doing anything)
Keep up with cleaning list!

And I have lost about 1 and a half lb! Was surprised as af showed yesterday, usually put weight on.
ds1 has just got up so I better go and get them ready for school.

Morning flyladies :wave:

Where did the weekend go?!

TY Dusty and Natty, as always Paid stuff for me today, Monday is usually my day off, let's get this hovel to rights day so I'm all at sea.

Our bed has been stripped and is in the WM, hoping I can nip home and get it flung at the airer before my first customer.

Breakfast things WU and the surfaces have had a quick tidy.

My foot is really hurting this morning, hope it's not plantar fasciitis coming back

Just waved off DS1 and he is almost as tall as me :eek: he's grown a good six inches since the turn of the year. It's no wonder I can't feed him enough!

Hi.

I would like to join in please.

I have fibromyalgia and suffer a lot with fatigue so the house has been neglected a lot lately. I need to start sorting it out though, especially the cupboard of doom but that is such a large, terrifying job to undertake.

Getting started is the first hurdle to overcome - where to start? I think the kitchen needs a good sort through so perhaps that will be my aim for this week.

Does everyone manage to get the whole house done in the week? I would love a tidy house
