Weekly Flylady Thread 15th December 2014

Lazy morning so far, only recently showered and dressed. Early lunch for the littlies - using up some freezer bits. Garlic bread has vanished. Just as well, it smelt rather tempting.

So I've just put a wash on, trying to keep ahead. Oh, we did move the sofa to retrieve a toy and swept up all the dust bunnies <yuck>.

Just as well wet are having a quiet day, we've already had tears here. It's not like DS to be so touchy, he's usually quite good a laughing things off but got a bit upset when, after snatching DDs Lego, I took a piece out of his train track. He ended up sat on the step to regain his composure bless him. He's still not 100% well I don't think.

Really need to get some cash if we go out later. I have nothing in the house.

My next jobs are to sort the kitchen after lunch and then go and tackle DD wardrobe. They are watching Barbie in the Nutcracker.

Wow mamaninie you'll be eating turkey until Easter! What a haul! My shopping is coming tonight, but I don't have anything exciting like joints of meat - hopefully I'll get everything on my list, it'll be like an early Santa visit, lol, I can't remember what I have ordered!

I'm still taking one day at a time .. was due to have more major surgery on the 11th but they cancelled the night before!! Probably just as well or I would have spent Christmas in hospital.

Dr Pepper Gammon in the Skint Ritz for lunch today......the veggies/vegans are having Dr Pepper mixed roast veg.......I am tempted to take the laptop out to the kitchen and play Froz£n on the DVD and get some angry cleaning done.

But my head is buzzing with legalese, historic stuff which might be important and watching for Admiral Ahkbar "its a Trap!" so looks like I will be trying to get emergency appointment before I have even instructed them. The EX is too tricky and using the holiday season to force things down a difficult route.....

I think I will head off to Iceland later for a tub of their own ice cream which IMHO is better than Jen & Berry's .......seeing as I don't smoke and rarely drink, I should be allowed one tiny weensey vice all to myself.

Right, time to make some progress of some kind.........

afternoon all
popped in to say thank you VERY much for the really lovely package of cards that arrived yesterday, it was lovely to sit with a coffee and read all the messages inside them - they are now all arranged on the lounge door for everyone to see.
DS1s 20 today so hoping he will get back from his trip with a friend to london in time for cake before church carol service tonight.
did a couple of pressie runs yesterday sop cleared a few bags. this morning the last of the fairy lights went up and all the deccy boxes went back up the attic till after christmas
DS2 has come back from a sleep over with a stinking cold and temp so i think hes heading for the flu, hes just taken himself back to bed.

sending hugs good wishes and positive vibes to ALL on this thread, you are all brilliant and have been such a great support this past year.

Lady Liberty how lovely to "see" you.:o

We've had our dins - Mr LW asked me to do Qu0rn fillets in white wine sauce; it's one of his favourite meals. As is our custom, we shall have our pud later (I can't eat a pud straight after main course). And there's champagne in the fridge, which we'll have this evening when we get home - see next paragraph.:D

We'll be *gulp* popping across the road for the dreaded social event in a little while, so I thought I'd do a swift post first as I'll probably be in shock afterwards.:rotfl:

HB sorry to hear Mrs Dog isn't co-operating regarding food; Ronnie's not eating full rations, but tbh, I think his owners give him rather a lot anyway, as he's quite a tubby little chap. At the moment I'm putting out a small helping for him (I don't want to put out lots and just have to throw it away) and using the cooked beef and chicken pieces his owner sent to try and encourage him to have some. I find if I push these down into the food, he scoops up some dog food with the beef/chicken. It's fairly successful, but even then, he's quickly had enough, at which point even beef/chicken doesn't impress him. But he's also having biscuits, which I can get his interest in by batting them around the floor for him (can't exactly do that with wet food :eek: ) so he's getting something in him, at least.

He's been brushed, so he's all tidy for once - he's long-haired so gets untidy very quickly.

Anyways, I need to throw a bit of war-paint on and find some jewellery, so I'd better hit "submit" and go and get on.:o

hope your afternoon isnt too stressful LW
