Weekly Flylady Thread 1st August 2016

Ishtar

Was at a bit of a loss this morning until I had a look around and found plenty to do

So far I have:

WM x 1
DW x 1
Walked to town and back to play [STRIKE]pokemon go with the kids[/STRIKE] run some errands.
Spent an hour catching up on work related things
Spent a happy couple of hours sorting DDs bedroom out. 1 x recycling bag, 1 x bin bag and 1 x WM load. There's still quite a bit to sort through as she's a hoarder - and she's only 11 :eek:

Hello!

We've been at home today. Kiddies devised a "school afternoon" so they wrote a schedule including PE, maths, science we took it in turns to be the teacher.

Also had a massive shop delivery so they laid all those out end to end. To make a path in the kitchen - omg lol. They did help me put it away after...

So we've just kept on top of things today. Tonight I'm going to wipe over the floor in the garage / den as DD had a cornflake incident - luckily she doesn't have milk on them haha.

They are just having supper and watching scooby doo then I'll chase them off to bed. She's been a little tearful at points so I'm pretty sure she's tired.

I've sorted the recycling which has made a bit of space and put the black bin out for morning.

Hoping the last bit of splashback will be fitted tomorrow then I'll be officially done in the kitchen:T

Dropped the dysons round the repair guys he was really pleased. Lounge is looking much better, all ironing put away, everyone fed.
Tomorrows plan is to take ds2 round mils and do sons weed killing and garden recycling bin filling. Then tackle the kitchen.

Aww Bossy your kids made me smile. On hols and wanting to play schools!

My sinuses hurt, I seriously hope this isnt the start of anything sinister. I think I am going to head off to bed soon. Important meeting at work tomorrow and I need to be on form.

Its dark and rainy, what's going on, its only August! I did manage to get the washing dry outside earlier though. Catch you all tomorrow x
