Weekly Flylady Thread 8th December 2014

Morning all, especially juliejim :wave:

Thanks for last week's list, Dusty and this week's, Natty. I'm in as much as possible.

We popped into town at lunchtime yesterday, found a parking space without difficulty and managed to get a few more Christmassy things
DGD2 enjoyed the pantomime, although I found the story over-complicated and the actors incredibly fast and loud. I think I've just got used to life at a slightly less fraught pace
In the evening I actually managed to write the cards that have to go long distances (Australia, N. America) as well as about a quarter of the rest - and got DH to sign them too and lick all the envelopes The rest are still spread out on the coffee table, so I will write a few more each time I sit down with a :coffee:

Today I must also
- write 2 emails
- strip our bed as soon as DH gets up
- WMx3
- dust and hoover bedroom
- do the other dailies
- take my friend for an appointment with the GP
- sew a sail
- finish filling 2 resource boxes
- pack 3 parcels
- go to the post office
- shop for fruit, veg and a few other bits
- go to local garden centre for coupon bargains (and maybe a free cuppa)
- HHI this evening

Hope everyone has a good week. (((Hugs))) to everyone in need,especially Dusty and her friend, Mummyroys and mrs-mp, spoons to anyone who needs a bit of extra help, and sticks for all BDs. x

I am in this week

Got the dishwasher going this morning and stripped our bed before we left.

I have a guiding discrict meeting tonight so i am not sure how much else i will get done, i suppose i could leave a list with OH and hope that he does something.

That might be wishful thinking though:p

Welcome Wishus

Mrs MP great news about your Dad

Stuff taken to 2 chairty shops and scrap store, very pleased with that. Could not find a black tie for DS1 so will pop to the galleria after hospital as I need to go there anyhow, think they are open until 8pm so should be possible.

It has taken me an hour to strip beds, collect and sort all the laundry for the laundrette, and in the process I have discovered a wet bed. !!!!!!. These are professional adults. The only smelly person we had prior to this year was a French student who was disgustingly smelly but this is utterly ridiculous. And revolting.

This year has been a total shocker with smelly people topping my 'never again' poll, but the soaking wet bed is just *bleargh* And it's someone we both like!

I know of a B&B that chose to go out of business because hen and stag parties resulted in wet beds on a regular basis but I honestly thought we'd never have that problem.

oh no HB:eek: thats the pits really is the mattress salvageable?

I have done the pet area and some washing...... I thought the litter tray was a bit niffy so went to investigate - it appears a cat has decided to wee under or around or even in the washing basket (I really can't tell!) as I found a semi dried up puddle of it under the basket - so it must have been last night :sick:

poorly girl had a great time at the new friends house and turns out her hubby does some carpentry - so I'm going to get him round to quote for building a window seat in the front bay and maybe some loft storage soon
