3 made dinner (am typing this whislt I recover from a large chicken pie and veg)
4. sorted out school stuff this afternoon.
5. went shopping to buy storage boxes for new room layout(am so excited) also walked to the end of the high street to go to the cheap shop to buy them.

Nooooo! Stop! I'm laughing too much!
How on earth did they get a live mouse?!

Evening folks, Welcome to Buffy and MessyTessie and welcome back NewMrsL and Denise and Maralum and anyone else I missed while wizzing through today's posts at high speed. Busy, chatty, tea guzzling Flyers that you are.
Pen-Pen, you can't post a pic like that and not tell me what it is and how to make it, It looks absolutely gorgeous! Please?
Becca, wowzer, keep at it. Seriously impressed!

List time..
Wash load out. Holes in kitchen walls filled. Bit of sanding of paintwork and a mamoth clear up done.
I'm pacing myself or I'll start bodging.
Going to Iron tonight while Silent Thingy is on.

Tomorrow (I'm still 'off list') I'll just do the floors and quick dust then some more of the kitchen.. maybe start the undercoating..anything to delay papering the walls.. Oh and I'll try and fit in cleaning the windows inside in every room. Nothing like living in fantasy land eh!

Requested new Boots card (old one bent when DD1 sat on it)
Returned forms requesting postal votes
Booked ANOTHER eye test for Saturday

No ironing to do - as finished it yesterday whilst watching 'The Queen' HOORAY

Still got to:
Peel veg for tea tomorrow
Make packed lunches for DH and me
Get out 'proper' work outfit (parents around tomorrow)
Set timer for 15 minute kitchen blitz (probably level 2 ish)

Hugs to those in need - hot chocolate to those who want!

Michelle, glad you survived day 1 :beer:

I've been busy - cooked tea, washed up and tidied kitchen. Made tomorrow's tea ready to go in the SC before w*** tomorrow. All 3 of us have bags packed for tomorrow, and I've got my lunch box and hot mug ready to fill :T

My paperwork pile is smaller, and some is filed, but still plenty to do. Did correspondence as I went along, so made phone calls, wrote DD's school trip cheque, rearranged an appointment, paid my newspaper bill.

Will pop back during next couple of days, w*** permitting.

:A :A Penny. x

And once you've made the bread dough, it's really easy, too :j The Small Penguins created it. It's in this thread - Adventures in Bread Dough.

Enjoy; Penny. x

New to flylady as tired of spending large amounts of the weekend doing the household tasks I should have done during the week.

Managed to get some things done although feeling pretty awful so taking cold and flu tablets and hoping that my voice comes back by tomorrow as couldn't hold any meetings today. Thank heavens it's a half day tomorrow!


Manic Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room
Level One
Clean floors - Done
Level Two
Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces - Done
Sort fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front - not done.
Wipe dining table (clean table cloth if necessary) - Covered with papers and laptop so not done!

Extra
Unpack and hang up all clothes - not done pleading illness. Just can't face doing this at the moment.
Have tomorrow's work outfit looked out together with shoes and accessories. Done.

ditto. I think schools are such sitting ducks for "specialist systems" our guys are good, but so over stretched cos school is too tight to pay out for proper help.

learning objectives.... I remember them..... I have a year 7 form so I am looking forward to tomorrow, first day at BIG school.

have put more washing on. Ironing pile may attempt to take over the world at this rate...

Yum yum, thanks so much. It looks like something I used to make from a book I didn't get custody of!
