Weekly Flylady Thread 12th September 2016

Jazee

Morning all. I'm in, better late than never. Hugs to all who need them esp Raphael and poorly dogs.

Flying is a bit hit and miss here with Poppet and is mostly clearing up after her, but I have done the dailies today and will now have a cup of tea before starting the paid stuff. Will try to look at the lists tomorrow, Poppet permitting.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning all

Hugs, sticks, spoons and vibes to all.

Today is supposed to be work free, but I have books to put out. They should have gone out yesterday but the atrocious weather stopped me. DD was nearly an hour late getting in from school, kicked off on me for no reason, then didn't wash up (her only school day chore except keeping her room tidy) so helping me put them out is her punishment. That gives me some time today to sort out books which need to go out to potential new customers.

Also on my list today is a quick trip to Mr Al for bread, milk and more fruit. DD has decided she doesn't want crisps and biscuits for her lunch any more, she wants fruit! :j I also have a friend coming round later to collect her order, and I have laundry I couldn't do yesterday to get done. I'm going to take Zack for a shortish walk as he's not been out since Thursday between the rain or heat and me being busy. I want to get him out this morning while the temperature is in the teens rather than the 20s!

So far this morning the dailies upstairs are all done, I've also washed up and S&S the kitchen. WM has just finished its first load so I'll hang that out now, then do a few jobs until about 9.30 while DD's phone charges a bit. She's asked me to hit some pokestops as a rare pokemon has spawned near by a few times yesterday and she's out of balls :rotfl:I won't let her take this phone with her to school as I don't want it getting broken. So I might as well hit some while I walk Zack as there's 5 pretty close together about 10 minutes walk away (or 5mins if Zack is pulling :rotfl:)

Welcome back flyladies

Sounds like the room is coming together, Mrs MP xx

So I've cleaned 3 sinks and toilets, plus windowsills and tiles above sinks. Towels etc are in WM and I've brought the (empty) bin back in and tidied kitchen. Just having a bit of brekkie.

WM nearly finished so I'll hang around for that then go tackle the bath - in fact, I might spray it now, so it can get to work without me.

I'm going to set myself the target of listing DS go-kart on ebeast today - why do I keep putting it off?

Well that went on a little longer than planned :rotfl:

Washing hung out, Zacks been groomed (he went and stood by where his stuff is stored and I went through food, treat, walk, toys and no response. I showed him the brush and his tail nearly came off he was wagging it so hard :rotfl:), livingroom given a quick dust and downstairs vacuumed through. I am now sweating buckets! Need to get Zack out for his walk then I'll put more washing on when I get back. Its already getting too hot so I'm hoping we can stay in the shade as much as possible.

Back soon :wave:

Thanks for the messages guys, my mum messaged me yesterday to tell me my granny, who has alzheimers, had a fall yesterday, broke her hip and was in surgery. This on top of my dog passing away and recently being told my uncle has lymphatic cancer. They say things come in threes, so I hope I've had my quota.
