  • Morning ladies,

    Was up fairly early dd1 decided to get up at 6.20am I was not impressed! But I sent her back to bed and she stayed there for another hour. She's always up early at the weekends! And dd2 woke up last night and wouldn't go back to sleep until gone midnight!
    Another early start for me thanks to my cat, again he wanted to go out at 4am.:mad: Wish he had a cat flap like we did at our old house as it wouldn't be a problem. Unfortunatley theres no where to put one.

    That's what my cats normally do, what is it about 4am!:mad: I decided to chuck them out last night, mean I know but I wanted 1 night of not being woken up!

    Right have the rest of my list from yesterday to do plus a few extras:
    • [strike]De-clutter lounge and quick hoover[/strike]
    • De-clutter dining room and mop floor

    Morning all

    One load of washing - out, then in and now waiting to see if the rain goes off again.

    I've dusted the living room and I'll vacuum it later. I want to make space in the understairs cupboard to put stuff like lemonade for Christmas. There isn't anything to chuck away because I've already done that but I need to move things about to make a space. Then I'l vaccum that and through downstairs.
  • Morning all, no flying done this weekend as i've been working.
    You lot all seem to have been very busy though!
    Maybe get a bit done tonight, just going to get ready as we have a game against Edinburgh uni today, not really feeling up to it so that'll be fun:eek:
    Hope everyone has a nice relaxing day:D

    Roast dinner eaten and washed up.

    Made space in the understairs cupboard and vacuumed right through downstairs.

    The washing is nearly dry, another hour should do it.

    And that will be enough for me today :)

    Afternoon all

    Just sat at work waiting for that clock to hit 3pm and then you wont see me for dust:D .

    Shopping last night did not go as planned. DH got his watch strap adjusted and bought 2 shirts and a blazer. Got littles some new pjs but we never made it to Asda. We did stop at toys r us on way home and bought "tugging puppies" which is actually good food (especially for adults who have had a few drinks;) ). Also got hubabaloo to put away for christmas for one of the girls.

    Quick stop on way home at the titchy tesco and christmas cards for DD1 to take to school (oh god! forgot about DD2 and the Nursery lot), wrapping paper and a bottle of brandy for me:D .

    Today I had a quick flick round before I left for work, more damage limitation than flying. Tea is in my "new" slow cooker (which is HUGE!). I have also done meal plan till end of month, done online order with Mr t and it is being delivered tomorrow.

    Does anyone know where I can get school grey trousers from?? Had a look in adams and BHS last night but none to be had. Madam has now decided she would like to wear trousers (after refusing to do so from the age of 2!). Oh 15 mins to go, best go feed the cat!

    Shell- Grey trousers I usually get from Asda or Tesco. Could try Woolworths aswell.

    Michelle, fingers crossed next week is better for you, nothing seems to be going right for you at the minute.

    I'm back on duty doing the flylady lists this evening so just going to have a mooch through and see what to put, admittedly out of practise and a little daunting getting the golden duster back which I hear pigpen has been used as a bashing stick :rotfl:

    Dad's been over this morning with my neice, kitchen, sitting and dining rooms spotless, just close your eyes when walking round the rest of the house :D BM just finished, beef in SC for dinner as the meat didn't look like the best cut so thought I would throw it in there, makes most things edible..ve is prepared, just the yorkshires batter to make.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
