Ha, nearly beat you to it Bossy, I have been up half an hour but just put the puter on. Enjoy your day.
Didnt sleep very well, not sure why. Back at hospital today with DS, just routine stuff but its a 100 mile round trip and for some reason sitting with him for 4 or 5 hours while he is hooked up to a drip is exhausting!
Valli I have got a great image of you throwing shoes!!
And Michelle we have an open plan kitchen/diner and for me its probably the most important room to keep tidy. When we had a new kitchen put in I had a declutter of my cupboards and took everything off the worktops that wasnt necessary. I know what you mean though, no-one else here can put pots away, wipe up crumbs or generally clear up after themselves.
Right, off for a shower. Have a good Thursday everyone x0 -
-Just popping in o say a quick hello - it's my long day at the hospital today so probably won't be around later. Hope everyone is well and that Ionafan has well and truly sorted that migraine.
Today I will hopefully be decluttering unwelcome nasty cells. Any additional withering vibes are most welcome.:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -

I so need to rejoin ( as it really works)
Fell off the wagon for a while.But need to do this little an often thingy. As mine is just mounting up. So will try and follow the plan. The house has been KMed
Which is great but finger prints still get on the door frames even with a de-cluttered house :rotfl:If you see what I mean.
So Mrs MP if you see me slacking again on this thread please feel free to give me a kick up the backside

Morning all
I have a morning at home so have pegged out washing. I am going to hit the ironing next then it can air in front of a window. Green bin, full of hedge clippings and mowings has been emptied *fling* and blue bin is out awaiting collection. I have remembered to include my 'unwanted small electricals' too! Recycling bin full.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
Thank you Honey Bear0 -
Morning all.
Just waiting for my bath to run after sleeping in this morning. Hopefully the shower will be fixed soon. Todays plan is to get all the newsletters in the books and get the books to my current customers out asap. Then I'm hoping to get another coat of paint on the front door as the forecast for tomorrow is rain on and off all day. I'm working tomorrow evening as well so don't particularly want to be painting my door even if I am using "recoatable in 4 hours" stuff. I can sort books for potential new customers and put them out tomorrow.
