Weekly Flylady Thread 4th April 2016

mrs-moneypenny

I'll join you and finish what I've got left to do biscuit.

Just made a really grim discovery putting some non iron away and pairing some socks from the laundry basket. Found what I thought was a bag of DGS spare nappies and clothes. No it was a wet bag with used but thankfully just wet nappies in. It must be about a week old and stank!!!! It's now all in the wm.

Thank you ladies you are fabulous X

Piggers Coping vibes and Karma vibes on their way to you. A few hugs as well (I know you don't want them) X

Dizzy Glad Tiny liked the nursery X

School hols here. We have sorted and checked 2 boxes of Lego micro world sets for sale. Amazingly they are complete.

I don't feel well (lack of energy mainly) after ds2 had a few meltdowns.

Heavy showers on and off here.

Sticks, spoons and hugs in the garden help yourselves x

Learn to use your tech more efficiently so that if (for example) your son has swiped your mouse and you have had to resort to the I pad you can learn to copy and paste links in forums. If your oven has a timer make sure you know how to use it or read an instruction manual (for one appliance you use regularly) to make sure you're up to date - and using - all those quirky features. Apparently, despite multiple wash programmes, most of use stick to the same one time after time!

Valli well done on stepping into the breach. I am invoking Ma'at to dispense some much needed justice on behalf of poor Piggers.

As to the quoted extract from today's listy - I have the instruction manuals for the new steam cleaner and the new WM out, and referring to them at each use, til I get my head round how to use these appliances properly. I am not going to just use the "mixed load" option on the WM to the exclusion of all else!!

Other than that, I'm just doing the best I can; I am in sheer agony with my arms, shoulders and back. I think it's just a flare, (I hope that's all it is), but it's making Flying.... er..... interesting. And I am quaffing Oramorph like there's no tomorrow.:cool:

I have, however, today:

• Fed and walked Jack
• Been to Mr M's, and discovered that a new Herr A has opened on the same shopping precinct :T
• Detoured to the B00ts on the same precinct for a new pot of Tiger Balm (I am using this like it was going out of fashion currently)
• Done HHWiiFit
• Done the accounts spreadsheets - Mr LW got his first ever State Pension today.
• Made a quiche
• Made a "lemming cake"
• Cleaned the kitchen (Mr LW kindly washed up as I created mess)
• Walked Jack again
• Done my emails (a gazillion surveys)

So I haven't been idle.

Excellent work ladies.

I have done a maidenful of ironing, and this included today's washing as it started showering (heavily, I'm in roughly the same area as Dancemum) so that will finish off airing/drying.

DD's been to look at a car. It's like WWIII in here now with opinions being freely given. I'm keeping my head down. She has been offered a car almost free, though she would have to give DS some money as Uncle won't treat one without the other - it's complicated. Upshot is she doesn't want the 'free' car.

And I am wondering what to give you for tomorrow.

Heathrow run done
1 hour sleep decluttered
Washing got off line the heavens have now open, still got one lot to go, may resort to TD
Admin type banking stuff done
Meter reading entered on line

The bliss of having the house to myself for the 1st time in about 15 weeks is wonderful...............no one to have to clean round, no telly on 24/7, no lights left on......................

mrs-moneypenny

Done everything on the list apart from cleaning the windows and the hhironing. I'll do that tomorrow now.
I've made cauliflower cheese for tea, having mash and veggie sausages with it.

Was slightly embarrassed that with the sun shining at the right angle I can still read "let it snow!" From where the Christmas gels were stuck on the glass so they definately need doing.

In a plus Dh came in from work and said the kitchen looks bigger!

I'm in - thanks Valli for stepping in :A Love New Order and I see you have chosen a nice long song for extra flying!!

I'm back from hols but away again at the end of the week!

pigpen - hope you're doing ok x Words fail me (well, ones that won't get blocked!) when it comes to him; sending coping vibes for you all xx

Gentle hugs for all those feeling poorly or in pain xx
