Weekly Flylady Thread 14th December

Pigpen- hope you get it all sorted.
Bossy- glad you seem to be getting your course sorted.

We went to the farm today for a kids christmas craft event so didn't get back until 2.30. Then after school run, I went up to Mr T to get a Christmas jumper (none could be found) so hubby's Olaf t-shirt will have to do. Apparently all the teachers have got to parade around the hall and there is going to be a clapometer! Going to look slightly ridiculous with my massive belly!

Anyway filled up on beer to use up a voucher I had (£9 off £60 spend). Didn't get home until 5.30. Even though there's not a lot off the list, I have done other things that weren't on the list. So wm x 2, swept and mopped the floors, hoovered all downstairs, started a 1000 piece christmas puzzle with the elf!, wrapped school gifts for the morning, caught up on some emails and tidied up the kitchen. Think that's about it!

Left to do...

Food list
Dismantle unit downstairs and take upstairs.
Sort out unit and start to put toys away
S&S the downstairs loo / cloak.

Tuesday - kitchen and dining room
Empty and clean the fridge out
Wash a window
Wipe the tiles / splash back
Wipe switch plates and remove grubby finger marks
Extras
Spend some time with your diary

Morning all. Hugs good wishes posi vibes sticks and spoons where needed.
Last day at work today so games and class room tidying.
Try the card box pigpen, that where I stuffed mine- wrote the last class of cards last night ready to take in today. Dh nipped in the attic to get the cheap crackers I'd bought at carboot in summer for the special dinner table at school today. Wrapped ds2s stuff, didn't look much so it's been bulked out with a new duvet (he needed one)

Pigpen surely that is against every bit of safeguarding advice schools ever get! Hope you get it sorted and kids are all ok. Sounds like it's lucky for your kids they have one strong sensible parent looking out for them. He should surely get what's coming to him now, sounds like a restraining order could be the way to go. At least now the school will have to do something or the police will make them.

Have a good day all.

Morning all

Well done everybody, we've got to Friday again.

Off out shopping this morning and then Christmas party with work this afternoon and evening (we are going to crazy golf and driving range!).

Still haven't finished cleaning the bathroom so hoping to get that done at some point today. Also need to write a meal plan/shopping list for the next couple of weeks.

Have a good day all.
