Weekly Flylady Thread 18th August 2014

Morning all.

We've got a mini list to work through as its the end of the week and way too much dumping of stuff has happened Also need to go to Mr A as we're giving Old Mother Hubbard a run for her money, but DD's school shoes are due to be delivered today so we need to hang around for a bit. Since we're going out we're having baths and changing beds, so I'll wash that stuff tomorrow while DD is out as I probably won't be doing any decorating tomorrow with the way the furniture will have to be arranged while the gloss getting painted today finishes drying (its taking about 24 hours to become that "dry tacky" like a shiny boiled sweet rather than "tacky tacky" where it sticks to your finger).

Friday:
Mr A shop
Change beds
Post DVD back
Baths
Clean bathroom (post baths)
Clean kitchen (DD's job after her baking session yesterday)
Tidy livingroom
Damp dust livingroom
Paint remaining gloss

Saturday:
Order new bookcases/desk/shelves/chair for desk (Split to make the most of BH weekend offer Vouchers will then be used towards a more expensive purchase I want to make :money:)
Laundry (dark, lights, towels, cleaning cloths)
Start Mr A home delivery for back to school water etc
Get sorted for wallpapering if not start it

Sunday:
Finish wallpapering

Time for another coffee :wave:

Warning - rant coming up !!
Had a 'mare of a day today. Tried to close an account (it's empty) at the N W bank today but NO - have to return all the bumff - cards etc - to them as I can't cut them up at home ?? So will have to go back up town again (can't do it on-line either)

Ok - so bearing in mind it's my only free day in the week I went to Sant Bank as I need to change the date of the direct debit which pays off our cc each month, because DH getting paid on a different date now. Easy yes - wrong NO. So eventually - long story and phone call at the bank - have had to cancel present one and have to go back Tuesday to set new one. WHY ?? in this day and age of computers is it all so difficult ?

Tell NitWits bank you have already destroyed everything.. if you take a valid card back what is to stop someone using it??? You have to protect yourself because they cannot be trusted!! Or shred them all and take in a bag of shreds.. That way you are destroying the stuff and they are disposing of it.

As for Craptander you can set up new DD's online.. take about 10 seconds! I've done lots.. better still put it on a bill payment and you control when it goes out then.. it works just the same except you decide when to release your money not them just taking it whether it is in the account or not.

Today I have cleaned the kitchen floor (lots LOL!), put out the recycling, washed 3 loads and dried 2, folded 4 loads and cleaned the carpet (lots!). Kids are on their way home and expected in at 14:30. Crate has not arrived. Not sure what I'll do, will ask Ndn's to accept parcel for me and take pup with me I suppose.
Immunisations for her at 9:45 tomorrow. Will send DH to pets at home for a little collar and leash set after he finishes work as the collar we picked up for her will fit her when she's about 10!

Am finally going off to bed, it's taken me a while to persuade the pup with no name that she should sleep on the warm bed with the hot water bottle rather than the tiled floor between my feet.
She's beautiful. The cat is making me so proud because she's got so close to her tonight. In fact, she nearly ate a treat which we placed on pups back. I think it helps that pup is the same colour as the sofa!
3 accidental ewes and 1 poo. Luckily, the crate arrives tomorrow!
Night all xx

I'm longing to see a pic of the pup, please.

Frog-munching again. The old one that is so old its pensionable and decrepit. I'm hoping to finish one section of it today and then I'll be able to work out how long the rest of it will take. I'm so bored with it!

Fab news greent

Yes, puppy pics are required please!

I'm having a day off. Been to play centre. Was fine early (empty) but once the bigger kids came in they were tearing up the slide, bouncing around regardless of smaller ones. I knew it would be grim.

Now got fire on and snuggling on sofa.

Greent Yay for DD

I've had the police here about next door again (older gentleman not been seen for a few days apparently so someone called the police) but I think the fella over the road set their minds at rest more than I did as I've not seen anyone for days as my windows are covered in newspaper with decorating! Then my parcel arrived, finally DD had her bath after some chasing so I've not long been bathed myself! I'd love to know where today is going. I am not looking forward to trying to get all the gloss painted this afternoon! I think pizza for tea is a must as I'm sick of pasta in various forms now :rotfl:
