When I joined, Dustykitten was the listmaker from whom Valli took over: I still have her Declutter and Deep Clean lists saved on my computer, just in case I ever need inspiration a kick in the right place again!
So much going on in Flylady land ... Big (((hugs))) to asb, YL, round, Fayolle, Narc0, pigpen, Natty's family and everybody else who is buckling under the strain of just surviving.
Yes Valli that does mean you've been doing the lists that long too 😙
I must admit I'm actually really glad I do the lists as it means I actually have something to keep me focused (even if i don't do the lists myself) plus the time/year goes quicker for me as the fortnight comes round quick without me realising it...😀
Next year I'm going to put different things on them, or tweak them slightly. Don't worry guys you will hardly notice 😀

Not sure what today's jobs are...lol
Have to decorate that christmas tree while Dave has his regular Monday 3hr afternoon sleep. I can put "It's a Wonderful Life" on and decorate 😃
Must finish the letter i started to my friend and get it posted.
Was going to pop to Sainsbury’s to pick up some toiletries/magazines/book to put in mother in law's christmas box so we can courier it to the home this week. But I'm not sure if it'll be too busy...lol
Put up the cards that have arrived.And if I have time after this then will S&S the kitchen worktops 😀

Thanks for the welcome @roundtuit & @Natty68
I have a question regarding the extra tasks. Are they for the week, or for the day?10 -
Morning all, sneaking back in because it's been a while since I was joining in with the lists (wish I had your stamina Natty to keep going for so many years!).
Did a massive blitz on the house a couple of weeks ago but it's starting to crumble again so need the daily lists to help me keep on top of it. Have already put on a load of washing this morning and I'll put that on the airer when I've finished work (the only place the airer can go is next to my desk). Off to have an early lunch soon and will do a bit of S&S in the kitchen while my soup heats up. Will pop back in later, hope everyone has a good day.

only here to remind myself what I need to do today because my brain dribbled out of my ear while I slept and it’s so tiny I can’t find it.I need to collect a parcel from boots and post a knitted thing for a memory box.. other than that.. I didn’t make drs appointments because it’s too much effort and I can’t cope with having to speak to a GP on the phone because they can’t be bothered to see people in the surgery.

Yay I am decorating the Christmas tree FINALLY. The lights are on, just got to thread up the new ornaments 😀I also have It's a Wonderful Life on, and a snowball xxxx
Oh and I also fell down the stairs carrying a decoration box.. 😆 I'll probably ache tomorrow..but I'm sure those stairs have it in for me. Think maybe we should look at a bungalow next time 🤔 😏Mortgage Free as of 20.9.17Declutter challenge 2023, 2024 🏅 🏅⭐️⭐️

I've been feeling really lonely AND I WANT A NIGHT OUT.
Not much could have prepared me for the day. But I have a beautiful flower arrangement - thank your gift from a class. The aged p's arent coming for Christmas dinner but they are having a takeaway (and I'm co-chef)
