Weekly Flylady Thread 14th September 2015

CY - I'll be wielding a "virtual" bat for your rat splatting with you. Thought about you a lot today and wish it had been better news x

Zero flying done - had no time (rubbish excuse I know) but I have sourced a wrought iron casement latch and window stay for the window in my boys' room. Our house is listed, so all repairs/replacements have to be like for like. The latch sheared off and can't be repaired, so had to get a new one. Almost identical, which is fantastic!

I'm not really sure where the day went :think:

Late start again tonight!! Trying to muster the energy to move off the sofa and tidy the kitchen. It's not too bad but the sun room is full of clothes - which I will fold and take ustairs!!

So update one hour later - kitchen wiped down and fridge given wipe and clear out. Clothes sorted from sunroom and kitchen table cleared and wiped. That's going to be it tonight I think. I have promised myself I will do something every evening - no matter how small. Kitchen sink is gleaming so I feel ok!!

Hello all. I'm going to try to join in with this properly this week, rather than just lurking. I never seem to catch up with all the stuff that I want to get done (currently should have no excuse as I'm not officially working, although do seem to still be doing a fair bit from home).

Clear the mantel and only put back the items which are supposed to be there.. and that doesn't include letters, keys or other treasure!
Level Three

Vacuum under furniture you can manage to move without hurting yourself

Have a bit of a tidy under the stairs. (Could be tricky, this is OH's domain)

Evening all,

CY more hugs your way, and keep shrinking vibes xxx

Nothing done today except paid stuff and dealing with three extra children for after school play and tea. Then took dog for a walk to calm down. Now sitting on my bottom. Will do lots tomorrow honest, as no paid stuff. Luckily the place is not that bad as worked hard at weekend. Have a good evening folks x

dancemum

Stinky cold has appeared just when it isn't convenient

All ds1's unwanted paperwork has been recycled or shredded. I had to ban ps3 usage and had to help.
I had my hair cut and coloured
Dailies done

Hope it went well at the hospital CY x

Bossy hope school sort out the timing issues and you have some calm days x

I remember reading about someone who totaLly beat the crud out of a nasty illness by visualising the cells withering and dying. If we all concentrate on the baddies doing that and the heathy ones thriving and overpowering them it will hopefully do the world of good.
I'm off to bed now but will be concentrating on badness withering and fading away while I doze.

Will play catch up with the lists tomorrow
night all

Ok study has come round again - my ROD! It got a bit of a tidy last week but has crept back into it's disorganised state. Will have to make more of an effort tomorrow

I'll join your splatting team too, CY, and give some withering looks to boot. Keep your pecker up, lass! We're all with you in this :grouphug:

I have not achieved a lot today. At SW the scales wouldn't charge and we had to wait for a new set, so my plans of coming home straight after the weigh-in came to nothing, and instead I was home half an hour later than usual. That meant a rush to have lunch and get to my vol job (which I particularly enjoyed today as I was on tea relief, with short stints in several different rooms instead of being in the same one all afternoon), and I had to call in to @1d! on my way home. Cooked and ate tea, finished off the Minutes, felt desperately tired, sat down to watch TV and have slept most of the evening while DH was out.

Oh well, tomorrow is another day. The study *will* be the room that I shall be concentrating on (or in ).

Goodnight all x
