Weekly Flylady Thread 2nd July 2018

wishingthemortgaheaway

Thanks for the suggestions Ionafan & Kazwookie,

Ionafan- that may be the way to go.
Kazwookie - sadly it's a 6foot extending (up to 9foot) solid wood table in a 2 bed Victorian terrace, no where else
To put it (and we wouldn't have anywhere to eat if we did move it)

Update: the cellar is done, loads of space down there, still masses more I would get rid off, but it has to be the scrip drip approach with hubby.
Living room and kitchen are presentable for guest arriving in half an hour.
Dining room is much better:
1 pile of stuff ready for Mum and dad to collect next week
1 pile of stuff ready for hubby to take to his job on Sunday
A couple of bits I think can go (tidily) into the cellar need to check with hubby
Dining room table:
small pile of hubby gibble he needs to sort
Larger pile of my work stuff that needs a good sort before my trip tomorrow - will get that sorted shortly.
All the stuff that needs to go upstairs has gone upstairs.

Still to do:
Sort work stuff for tomorrow
Tickle the bathroom
Dry washing away
Tickle Pickle's bedroom
Sort out room post decorator
Clear hallway upstairs.

See if I can find enough dirty stuff for a load of washing - cannot waste this lovely weather.

Wish.

Wish, if you need the DR table for eating your meals, the ideal time to clear it of junk is before the meal - no clear, no eat :eek:

Pigpen, good luck with your furniture tetris - but then, you always win :rotfl:

Back to essay writing...

Wish, put all the excess gibble that isn't your responsibility in the cellar. When people ask where it is, you can ask them stop using the dining table as a dumping ground. They'll soon learn.


Lost a post, haven't got the energy to re-enter it. Things tidied, Kelpie flown, so he's now feeling cooler and smelling lovely, washing up to date and paperwork progressed. I'm getting there, just very slowly.

Lunch break while we get DS3's blood sugars to a normal level.. currently over 40!!! :eek:


I got a fab sofabed for DD2 for £35..



Next jobs.. move DD2 stuff to middle room and toys and TV to front room


Then.. bookcase in middle room, my chair to front room, swirly chair to middle room and purple sofa to back room... we are pretty much done shifting the big stuff then.

second thoughts.. OH can do the TV so that can stay put until tomorrow.. I will move the purple sofa, swivelly chairs, toys and rejig the front room I think..

DD3 has a bedroom wall to wash

pigpen

Washing out

Trying to get back on track - been exhausted/in pain for the last 24 hours and got nothing done, but have managed to buy a bed today so at least will have a place to rest when I move!

Feel like there's still all the packing to do - everything looks like chaos.

Trying to get energy together to get started again!

If the laptop tells me one more time to Please Wait, I swear it will be out of the window.....and reboot number 3...all for a "quick" 30 minutes paperwork session.

Dancemum - happy birthday, but what a sad story. Send the scumbag to Kaz, these people deserve to be on the receiving end.

Wish - I moved everything off a table in the LR into a storage basket that was lying around looking for a purpose. As it was still there 3 months later, I presumed it was unwanted. Now apparently I was wrong, but nobody had noticed it, so that cut short shrift with me.

Zero flying here so far. Unless you count going to the PO on way home from work to get some stamps.

And ....I'm throwing the laptop out...:mad:
