Morning everyone
Just sitting here on the sofa with the dog snoring beside me (both of us under a blanket). Woodburning stove roaring and a good pot of coffee being decluttered while I plan my day.
Hope I can get some rubbish to the tip later (need to get OH on board with this too). Been reading about this KonMari method of organising your things and it does make a lot of sense to me. I have been decluttering for a while now but there is still a lot more to do. When we put our new kitchen in we bought some new plates, dishes and mugs. I took some old stuff to the cs but there is a lot more that really needs to just be binned. Never easy though.
Oh and EMoney a handbag is exactly what you should buy. I am very jealous! Enjoy your day.
And Frizzle I know what you say about OHs. I sometimes wonder what would happen if I stopped this flylady stuff to let him see what the house would really look like!
Off for a shower and going to get wrapped up warm.0 -
Good morning everyone.
Many congratulations to CY's DD. Lovely news. x
Trying to get warm and hoping not to light a fire otherwise I'll be tempted to snuggle up and watch TV all day!!
Have only read back on this page so hope I haven't missed anything important.
This morning I plan
HHI and put away - now.
Hoover and dust upstairs
Hoover and dust downstairs
Clean kitchen including floor
clean bathroom including floor
This afternoon
Sort room of doom 1 - all stuff for ch shop
Deliver appeal bags for donations for CS in my street.
Light fire and start latest knitting project.
As you can see it will be a quick once over - not a deep clean!!!

Take care everyone. x

Regarding OH's and the flyfairies, all the hotspots in our house this week were created by DH. One, a huge box following a delivery, had to be moved by me the next morning as I couldn't get the door open. Two others I finally cleared yesterday, just took a couple of minutes. DH didn't even notice they'd gone, so I pointed it out to him.
Right, cuppa, find some cash and then dog walking to the farm.Spend less now, work less later.0 -
Morning all.
I've decided to change our plans for today. The weather forecast is a real feel high of 2C and snow/sleet showers so we'll go to the shops later. Not sure what we'll do instead but I do have baking supplies, or we have lots of films recorded over the holidays we can watch along with popcorn to munch
Misc:
Toots list - writing one for my landlord but it'll need typing up
Clear 3 folders on harddrive back to laptop
Update finances
Calender update with new work dates
Work through folder of magazine articles I've pulled
Type up recipes to keep & file them, chuck originals (magazine pages usually)

Afternoon all
Actually been flying, bathroo, shower room and kitchen sink all done. WM1 on airer, WM2 in progress.
I was going to go in the garden for an hour of tidying up but I have so much paperwork to do. I'll do an hour of that and then reassess if I want to go out for maybe HH.

Hi all,
Been quite productive this morning - WM on, bathroom cleaned and a clear out of my bedroom started. 5 old nail varnishes out along with various magazines, bits of paper and a few other bits and bobs. We're having clothing bags collected from work on the 29th, so plan for next weekend is to sort the wardrobes!
CY - so pleased for DD (and you too!)
I'm thinking of going to the Who Do You Think You Are? show in Birmingham in April - maybe a flylady meet at the show and / or in Brum for lunch??? Cheap Pr3mi3r Inn rooms available at the mo too"There's only one way of life and that's your own" - Levellers
