Great news on the house, Frizzle :j
Sorry you're going to be laid up for a week, lynne Hope you mend quickly.

Thanks for all good wishes for my SiL.

I have done everything on my list today except these, which will be carried over to tomorrow:
- 3 emails
- wipe the small appliances
- do some weeding in the back garden
but I'm pleased to say the ironing basket is empty again and the pansies in the front garden give a very cheerful welcome

Also to be done:
- De-grot the loo/bath/shower/sink etc
- Wash the windows
- Change towels
- Empty and clean out the bins
- write a cheque
- drink coffee with an old friend
- go to U3A Family History group
- get cash for choir subs
- visit my poorly friend

Hoping to get off to an early start tomorrow!

Morning everyone. Glad it's the last day for the workmen today. Once they are done I can get cracking on the kitchen. When they finished yesterday I gave the kitchen floor a quick sweep and wash.

DD came for lunch and was pleased with the present I gave her. I discovered adult colouring books when out the other day. She is always colouring in with the kids. Finds it therapeutic. So now she has her own. Lol. .

Want to give my living room a bit of a revamp. So need to have a think how I want it.

Hope the poorlies get better soon. Congrats where needed. Welcomes and hugs too.

Lynne sorry to hear there's so much damage but I'm glad you've been to a&e, please follow the advice and get plenty of rest. I hope you heal fully very soon.
Hugs good wishes and posi vibes where needed. Weather looks good today so hoping to get a load of washing out first.

Have a good day all.

Morning everyone

Lynne ouch - hope you are on the mend soon.

Congratulations Narco.

CPP I agree that setting a set amount of time aside for each room is a good approach if you are pushed for time. Prioritise too, have a walk around before you start and decide where the worst bits are. If the kitchen and bathroom are sparkly then you can be forgiven for a bit of clutter in the living room and bedroom.

Yesterday I worked on job no. 1, went to the hairdressers, came home and walked the dog, made tea, took DS to cricket practice, came home again, swished the bathroom and washed the floor, quickly hoovered upstairs and did the stairs, hoovered and washed the kitchen and utility floors and swished the cupboard doors and worktops.

I have made a cake and some buns for OHs pack up this morning. Will be a bit late home from work so will catch up later.

Have a good Wednesday everyone x

Morning flyers. Not had a chance to read properly so hope everyone is ok. Well done on jobs, babies etc.

Back to normal for me today. I would have been doing ironing today but as I was at the office yesterday, no washing got done, doh.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning everyone


Congrats Mrs MP on the full time job

Welcome CCP - suggest you use a timer for your breaks and also your 15 minutes stints - it is surprising how much you can do in 15 mins!

Ionafan Lovely to hear positive news about Anna. Well done on the half pound off. I am in same boat as you - could do to try and lose another half stone but am sts so well at this weight I might just leave it for now and try just before my hols.


Lynne - glad you went to A n E and had it checked out - hope it heals quickly. Do you use arnica cream for bruising?


Great news on the house Frizzle.


Have a busy day today - vol job this a.m. as am attending a talk there this afternoon - WWI in 20 artefacts . Before that need to catch up with D sis who has been away for 3 weeks and do some jobs!!


Having late breakfast as lunch can't be until 1.30 and I'll have a Winnie the Pooh tummy by then (rumbly!)


Have a good day everyone. x

derelict church out the back of my house in the wee small hours!!! .. actually.. it may have been that which woke Dot up at stupid o'clock!

LameWolf

OMG Piggers:eek: I hope it was confined to the derelict building, and no lives were endangered.

Lynne Ouchy - time for catching up on those books you've always wanted to read, perhaps?

I have to make a cake this afternoon, I don't want to, and I can't decide what sort to make.
*sigh* I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.... :rotfl:

CCP

Great picture, pigpen - must have been scary to watch, though.

Glad there are no bones broken at least, Lynne. Make the most of your enforced rest, and get well soon!


Well, I've just completed my first Flylady crisis cleaning 'rotation' - I'm parched, weary and sweaty, want nothing more than to jump into the shower, and feel like I've achieved... very little, actually. Hopefully things will look better after the next time round!
