  • I'm going to be in Glasgow / Edinburgh for a few days near the end of October - anyone around there fancy a Flylady meet?

    Would be great. When are you about? S*d's law says it's going to be the one week I can't do. 23rd-30th!

    Lunch break!

    I don't seem to be getting anywhere fast so it's a good job I have an extra hour tonight as DD is at choir practice :o

    Washing up done but I need to do a separate one for the new stuff so I'll do that after lunch so I can wash my dishes as well ;) SC & BM unpacked and instruction books quickly read through to see what "first time use" instructions are.WM 2nd load in, TD is on, kitchen has been S&S'd for now. Rang the dentists and DD is set for Thursday afternoon and the only appointments they had were during school hours so a good job she is off. She's been text with the time as she's on her lunch break now to stop her pestering me. Shopping lists written, email junk folder dealt with while I was looking for an email. A few surveys filled in. One dog sulking as its wet out, I'm busy, and I'm refusing to give him treats until he's eaten some of his breakfast. We always have sulking on a Monday as he doesn't like DD going to school due to the amount of fuss she makes of him and its worse when she goes away.

    Going to potter around for a little bit online then start the actual cleaning about 1ish. That should give my soup enough time to cool down to be drinkable.

  • Kitchen looking good, loads of stuff Kondoed either in recycling, CSbag or bin. Good clean up done and fair bit achieved off the lists.
    Work done DH fed and returned to work going to shuffle some coat hangers round now and hopefully do the ironing

    Thanks Kaz, I need to book DS in. Have washed kitchen floor and cupboards, sorted some clean washing and checked online banking.

    My motivation is fast disappearing now. Might make a shopping list for later.

    Level 1
    Remove floor gubbins. Yes, you, that pile over by the door. Does it live there? I think not!
    Now do the same with the unnecessary worktop clutter! There you go! Well done!
    Level 2
    [STRIKE]Give the work tops[/STRIKE] and cupboard fronts your attention (with a cloth, don't flutter your eyelashes at them )
    Shine your sink, flylady basics
    Splash backs and greasy tiles? Yep, swishy there too!
    Level 3
    Pop the bin and doormat outside, and sweep and mop your floor
    Wipe over the small appliances
    Extras:
    Descaling. Kettle, iron, taps - get the vinegar out!
    Wipe over your big appliances
    run the WM and/or DW on a hot wash to keep its insides happy
    check over your herbs and spices. Are they any all dried and stuck in the bottom?

    Go for a run.
    [STRIKE]Start on the bathroom as it's desperate.[/STRIKE]

    :wave: Hello all

    Reasonable flying in the kitchen today. Floor cleared, DW unpacked and reloaded twice (we had twelve for dinner last night). WUDAPA for non-DW items. Most worksurfaces cleared, but now have a massive hot spot to sort out.

    Had a nap with Tiny mid-morning then entertained my aunt and her husband who called in for a flying visit on their way to Shrewsbury. Haven't seen them for ages, so it was really lovely.

    HHI x 2 and loads of clothing folded, towels, socks etc. however, the pile of ironing is still

    H-U-G-E

    :(
