Morning all,
Off to the paid stuff all day today, but this is my plan for later:
Daily stuff
Monday Minging & Flinging- Bathroom and Study/Pc Area
Clear floors of guff and stuff
Got 30 minutes to spare...
Clean baths, toilets, don't forget the outside! and sinks. Make them sparkle, sparkle!!!!
Empty and clean out all the upstairs bins!
Collect all the dirty laundry
Grab yourself a toothbrush and scrub the manky bits between the tiles
Have a good time Valli, and everyone else have a good Monday x0 -
I might pop in and wave from the seaside
(wave - geddit? :rotfl:)
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:PS FFP - it's twins so she's sticking to odd numbers lol!
Love it!
I'm reading as and when I can but mainly being lofty again this week I think, although I may have done all of the 'easier' stuff. It might be time to bring all of the boxes of sewing gibble down and get them in one place with a view to seeing if I really will ever get round to patchworking or whether the scrap store will acquire another bulk delivery. Hmm.Better is good enough.0 -
Thanks for the list Natty
Didn't catch up on last weeks thread, nor did I do last weeks list like I plannedBut its a new week so a fresh start.
Today I'm running errands, and I'm going to shops near DD's school so she wants to stay home :rotfl: No problem as she can do the ironing and tackle some other chores instead, think I might swipe last weeks livingroom list for herI just need to make sure her mobile is charged, turned on to a volume she'll hear & downstairs near her! Last time I went out she'd left it on silent in her bedroom so my 3 phonecalls to her asking her to come and help me as I'd hurt my back went unanswered. :mad: This time I plan on popping into some charity shops so I need her to answer whether certain books are on the shelf before I duplicate them again

Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Good morning all from sunny York. I am reclining on the sofa as per usual instructions.
DD2 and her OH made it back in one piece yesterday. She looked fraught and wrung out, but they both look a lot better for a decent nights sleep. Thankfully he has today off and has managed to obtain a doctor's appointment. The washing machine is working hard at their washing - I refused to let him take his away. I am sorting it and loading the machine and DH is hanging it out. That's team work for you.
DD1 is settling well into her flat, although much of her stuff is still here.... as of today they have internet and they are awaiting delivery of a washing machine. I look forward to getting over to see it in person.
Hope everyone is having a good day.:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

I am so delighted for DD1.. she spent most of her days unable to get out of her bed when you first joined us.. she is doing so incredibly well. xx Glad DD2 is home safe and hope her DF gets some answers soon.

Away with the fairies :beer:0 -
I am having a really rubbish day. Diet gone to pot - just stuffed a cream-filled muffin down my neck, followed by a chocolate mousse. :eek: Am hanging, despite trying desperately to cut down drinking and my debt-busting this month has been ruined by DH's irresponsibility with money and me getting a speeding fine of £100. Yes, my fault I know, but feel like everything's going wrong. Doctor increased medication but not sure if that's helping anyway. Sorry, just ignore me.
Need to go to the shops but have been avoiding going out anywhere, so DH's going to have the hump later as I haven't got any eggs in for his tea. I just want to sleep. For a hundred years....zzzzzzz.....
On the plus side, I've sorted my desk and changed Small's bed, emptied DW and done two lots of washing and drying.0 -
I have been summoned to my parents. Their bank no longer does probate so I think I may be requested to be an executer to the will. Does anyone have experience of this?
2xwm done and blowing in the garden

I'm Flying off-piste again, just doing what I feel well enough to manage.
Dogless for a few days; Millie was only here for the weekend, and Lizzie (aka Little Miss Naughty) will be here at 10:30 on Saturday.
I shall be concentrating on shifting the last lingering Cassie-hairs, particularly as the black bag is full enough to put out for the bin men this week.;)LW - sorry to hear about ulcers - I know how painful they can be. You might like to look at following site for some tips http://everydayroots.com/canker-sore-remediesSorry, just ignore me.
