Weekly Flylady Thread 19th October 2020

Fayolle

Good morning all,
It’s very dark out. Perhaps it’s time to hibernate until the spring, if anyone cares to join me...
But if not *big sigh* ...... then I do have a looooong list of jobs to do today, plus the usual 2 return trips to small town for school. Roll on last day of term tomorrow, as we always have 10 day autumn half terms here anyway.
 Coping vibes all round, I will be annoyingly back on the fred later to keep myself in check with progress, or procrastination, one of the two.
Take care all, and have a lovely day if you can x

Morning, At home this morning so I must fly.  House reasonably tidy but needs a good dusting and the floors need washing.  Won't get it all done today but will try and do something.  Also have some admin that is piling up in the tray.

Bed made, clothes picked up
Bed and bath room windows wide open (but won't be for that long as it's cold and wet here)
DW unloaded
Packed lunch made for OH

First task, porridge and coffee whilst I update spending spreadsheets and check banking

Hugs, spoons & SMILES by the door for everyone

Fayolle  I agree it is very dark this morning.

It is dark, drizzly, and windy here, I have fencing workers arriving today some time they say this afternoon, so I will see, they are doing an extra bit of fencing for me.

Ironing today

@Fayolle yes I would happily join you in hibernation!

It's forecast to be nice today so although it's damp now, I've pegged out. Sports club after school tonight so it will be easy teas all round and being kind to myself when we eventually get home. Everything just seems such a an effort at the moment... sigh.

Have fab days all xx

Trying hard not to hibernate here

HHI done, I must be blind as normally I do ironing and put away immediately but this basket of clean washing had been on the sofa in the living room since Saturday afternoon.
Finances done
WM on
 Bathroom surfaces cleared of stuff that shouldn't  be there (trying to keep them completely clear)
Recycling and normal bin taken out - must find another bag or  2 to go out in normal bin this week.
Quick chat with DD2

Coffee and find the bank papers they are chasing, I must be brave and face the document tray on the desk.

Goodintentions

Good morning!
No paid stuff today, as we are still isolating (day 2). Hopefully he will get his results later and we will be back to 'normal'.
Up late (as per!). Breakfast eaten, dressed and bed stripped & in WM. I need to check bank accounts and emails (I noticed a few from the LA I will have to look at). The weather is ok today, so I should take advantage & get in the garden. Lots to do out there! I also need to shred some paper for the compost bins.
I struggled to get my steps up yesterday (8K goal) but managed it after pacing the LR & kitchen before bed!   
Have a good day everyone!

Valli.. its a flower.. cogs are boring!

ooh they are not...they are clever and useful...

not as useful as flowers.. which give us oxygen and food and feed insects which make fruits and vegetables and seeds for more flowers and fertilise the ground when they die so provide a safe bed for new flowers.. I'd take flowers every time.

Fayolle.. we hibernated all summer may as well do winter too! lol

Bathrooms etc cleaned and shiny. The rest of the house has been rage vacuumed, as DH saw the need to use the cloakroom and the ensuite basins to wash his hands in quick succession...straight after I had cleaned them 😡. Words were had, I vacuumed, he is still sulking in the DR. Still at least I am keeping up with the lists!
Carrot soup is bubbling, using up some wobbly carrots. 

Looking forward to our Flylady Hibernation Commune 😉
