Weekly Flylady Thread 3rd September 2007

Ginger_Girl

Afternoon Everyone!
Been flying around like a proper mummy today! Have baked BlackSaturn's malt loaf and weetabix brownies and roast dinner in oven with BS chocolate mousse for pud! Yum! Kids are hovering in the kitchen waiting for cakes to cool and even DH is drooling!
Went to Wembley yesterday (freebie from boss!) I learned lots of football chants and even managed to singalong (come on you Eng-er-land!) Although DH did tell me off for reading the programme when the game had started!!!
Bedrooms all tidy and ironing pile conquered!! (DD1 and DS have even done their homework - wonders will never cease!!!) Tonight friends coming round but next week I MUST MUST file my tax return online. If you see me on here tomorrow night - shout at me!!!
Hugs to all in need!! Hope to see you all later!

Rather than focus on what I havent heres what I have done

S/S kitchen
S/S Bathroom
Cleared table and wiped it
Emptied DW and reloaded
Swept all the floors downstairs
Wipe stairs down
Sorted washing
WM x 4
TD x 4
Meal plan for the week
Food Shopping trip with DD
Shopping put away

DD is better this afternoon. She still hasnt done any chores and I have given up asking and her bedrooms a [strike]pigsty[/strike] tip (just in case any pigpens get offended ). Still she wont be able to have TV or playstation as I took the fuses out this morning and she's not getting her roast for dinner (a big ritual on Sundays) she's getting beans on toast. If she cant make the effort neither can I.

Better take her and walk doogie as then it'll be tea, bath and bed for her.

Catch ya's later

I'm not going to be the first to post but I've had a sneaky peep. I won't spoil it for those who haven't looked yet!
Rach, it's a shame you don't get to spend a lot of time with your OH, who'll move when you marry? Looking forward to seeing you cross those jobs off your wedding planning list, I do like a big mission (even better when soeone else is doing it!)
Gingergirl, wow you have been a 'proper mummy' today. My little Bro once told my mum she wasn't a proper mummy 'cos she didn't wear an apron, (she would have been about 25 at the time). Now; did you wear an apron? :rotfl:
Kazmeister, good approach I'd say.

Ceiling painted, light fitting put back together, walls that I didn't strip painted, everything wiped as I brought it back in and I've scrubbed the floor. Only 2 doors to gloss and the dreaded re-papering to do. A job for next weekend I think, I need to Fly to the list this week in the evenings.
I'm beat but I need to make something to eat and do Pen-Pen's sweet bread thing if there's time.

That's me done on this thread, catch you all on the other one later this evening. :wave:

* [strike]check train times
* collate photos for aunt
* pay two CC bills[/strike]
[strike]
* update work expenses forms

[strike]
*scan train tickets to keep for records before posting to claim refund for delays
* send email to chase AN about payment as low on dosh!
