Weekly Flylady Thread 4th April 2016

Biscuit_monster

Evening,

Well I did all the levels, but did not make it to the extras,because it took ages! However as mrsmp says, my kitchen looks bigger now as I spent some time rearranging stuff to make it less cluttered.
Gutted I didn't get to listen to new order, Great idea Valli btw

However, instead of crossing something off the toots list, I have started to write one. I have always been too scared to write down everything, but now I think I can.

Took the dog for a long walk this morning with the girls, my friend and her two girls. We saw three lambs being born, which was lovely (but also yucky, as dd2 said).

Kitchen and dining deliciousness

Clear all work surfaces, wipe down tiles/splash backs and countertops.
Put as much stuff out of sight/away as you can - clear spaces makes for clear minds.

Wipe time! With hot water and your detergent of choice wipe all cupboard fronts and, especially, drawer handles.
Wipe down appliances But disconnect them first....
Wipe all switches with a well-squeezed damp cloth and don't forget the sticky sockets! And the light switches

Evening all

Thank you for valiantly stepping into the breach Valli and thank you Natty for last week - though I didn't get much done

I hope you coping with it all Pigpen and it all works out for you and yours quickly as possible

Bit fed up with feeling injured and woolly headed and have cut down my painkillers by half to see how I go. Am just going to concentrate on getting dailies done, keep up with the washing and then do what I can above that.

I'm quite chuffed -
I've done the accounts for March
done the monthly bank monies shuffle
made a meal plan for the month
up to date with my Spanish lessons
cleared all dead emails
post sorted - filed/recycled/ready to shred
read leccy and posted online

Did dailies and some of kitchen. Have dusted all except LR and spare bed/study - will do the morrow.

Blue Monday
Kitchen and dining deliciousness

Wipe time! With hot water and your detergent of choice wipe all cupboard fronts and, especially, drawer handles.
Wipe down appliances But disconnect them first....
Wipe all switches with a well-squeezed damp cloth and don't forget the sticky sockets! And the light switches!
Clean the floor!

Learn to use your tech more efficiently.
And finally HH - ironing, gardening or something.


Triffic Tuesday
Living room luxury

Level One - quick sparkle (because we all know a tidy room is a clean room in disguise;))
Open a window
Clear out the dross - Binbag dance (link in the room heading;))
Empty ashtrays, wipe plants, water/discard your Easter bouquets
Straighten anything that's out of place

Level Two - dust demon
Dust everywhere and everything
this includes accessible skirting boards, dado rails and picture rails if you have 'em

Level Three - suck it and see
Thorough vacuuming - the floor AND the curtains AND the upholstery - lift those seat cushions and vacuum under them, too!
Wipe those windows then the light shines in!

Today's extras - remember this is TECH WEEK - check you use your tech properly and efficiently!

Empty the vacuum and beat the dust from the filters. Read the instruction manual if you have had your vacuum for a while and do any maintenance you can safely do at home. While you're at it check the cord for signs of wear - and, if there are any, DO NOT USE IT.

Use up any manky fruit and veg - soup and cakes can be made and frozen. (see siggy)


Sending gws vibes, sticks, spoons and hugs to all needing some
Hope you all have a super Tuesday
Lx

Evening all

I've finally caught up with paid stuff...I think...except for accounts for the end of the tax year but I'll do that when DD has gone back to school. Also got all the laundry washed. We had takeaway for tea tonight as its DD's birthday tomorrow but she wants to go out with her friends so wouldn't be home until gone 7pm (the club she normally goes to after school is still on). I don't mind, as I managed to get a 20% discount on it, and DD has leftovers for breakfast tomorrow DD finally went to bed at 10.30pm so I've just made her birthday card (just printed out a picture and stuck it to some card, ha11mark eat your heart out :rotfl::rotfl:) and now I'm headed there myself.

Tomorrow I'm going to play it by ear, I know what I'd like to get done, but there's not much for DD to do with her friends until club starts at 4pm so I have a funny feeling they'll want to come back here at some point since her friend wants to meet at 9.30 and I've said no hanging around in the park for hours on end. Doesn't help that a lot of her friends are younger, or look significantly younger, than DD so getting in to see a 12A in the cinema would be difficult, then there's the cost.... anyways I'll do my finances, then tackle the ironing pile. If I get anything else done it'll be a bonus. Just remembered I still have sewing to do so I might do that as well.

Okay, list update based on what was done yesterday

Monday Kitchen deliciousness
Level 3
Wash those windows
Clean the floor! - needs vacuuming & mopping again.
Extras
Learn to use your tech more efficiently
Check your Toots list! Can you completely cross anything off or, for those big jobs, have you made a start (eg getting quotes; looking at paint/wallpaper, made appointments?) - Toots list Jobs are sometimes biggies but they can be broken down into babysteps!
And finally HH - ironing, gardening or something.

Morning

Cannot sleep my mind is running 20 to the dozen
So made a long list of 'stuff' to do, I already started with ebay stuff
Just also found in a heap onthe table a recall for my car from December, so best ring them today and get that sorted.

Back later

Jazee

Morning all. Hope you're all ok today esp Piggers.

About to start on today's list.

Have a great day everyone.

Jazee

Ok so living room is thoroughly dusted, washing on airers sorted out, me and the dogs are fed and I've done HHI. Will be off line now for a couple of days due to the paid stuff. 'See' you all on Friday.

Valli

I am off out shortly but have emptied DW
Hope you all have a busy and productive day, hope our excused Flyladies get some rest, peace and quiet.
Back later to check up!

Morning all,

I could get used to this not working lark. How funny, I get more done when I'm off work!

Right, off to start today's list, trying to get it done before lunch then can walk the dog after it. I have my friends daughter here until 3.00, but I'm hoping they watch a Dvd or something this morning then I can get on. Hoping to get to the shops later as I need some new curtains for LR. Have a good one all, hugs etc x
