Weekly Flylady Thread 28th December 2020

Dailies done, bedding changed, second wash load in machine, bedroom tidied and dusted of a fashion, bathrooms s&sd, dusty bits in living room dusted, all floors hoovered and mopped, DH has been to docs, I popped in Mr. T while waiting for him, online funeral attended, lunch eaten and washing up done.

The curtains may have to wait.  My magazine has just been delivered so I'm going to sit and read that.

I slipped one coat of silicone trade cream Matt over the darkest purple and royal blue glitter and it covered really well and the room looks so much brighter. It is going to be pink and grey after the pests are back to school.

Sweep and mop the kitchen floor! - this was done Sunday, doesn't need doing until tomorrow.
I just changed our bedding as it was horrendous with crumbs. Blame my hubs who fails to listen when i say we should use tea trays! Oh well , we love fresh bedding so no harm done.

The duvet will be washed as well as another when the hubs is finished his guitar lesson.
I will do this first as not too much clothing laundry left. I'm going to out our huge bag of washing away so it's not piling up again.

I had a sick day, so i'll be in work tomorrow instead (i can swap my day off around if needed so I don't get marked for sickness)
I have been in bed all day, only getting up at 6pm to see my hubs - even though he is off and at home, he's been downstairs doing guitar stuff, gaming or i've been sleeping so not physically seen him too much.

I'll also try and sit down to get my planner ready for 2021 now that I have everything. 

I aim to do some of the "Tuesday twinkles" chores but i'll see how I go as still feel quite sick.

Place still looks acceptable, although there's an annoying tatty lump of plastic covered in lights and sat in my biggest plant pot taking up space on the sideboard. Apparently, I'm not allowed to remove it for another week (or chuck it in the wheelie bin as I'd prefer).


Place could do with a dust and polish after it's vacuumed, which is likely to be tomorrow, as I was at the hospital getting lots of pointy things jabbed into me, some of which might help me move without quite so much pain. I've also been very good and despite the usual side effect of steroids being wanting to eat the entire kitchen, I've had just two Lavender shortbreads and tried not to think about how well they'd go with Lemon curd and Creme Fraiche, bother of which are in the fridge and, according to the logging section of the app for my fancy new smart watch Himself bought me, I've still got around a thousand calories to go today, which gives me plenty of leeway.

It does look a bit tidier now we don't have Idiot Cats getting in the way - he bought two radiator cat beds and they are both occupied 85% of the time, which is absolutely unheard of. The only concession to mess is that a largeish square, thick cardboard box is up against one radiator so the slightly malfunctioning animal doesn't have to try and leap up into his preferred one and surprisingly grasped the concept of having his own step very quickly.


Looks like I'm off work for a bit longer than Boris said, though - assuming he doesn't close everything down tomorrow night - I've been told I must isolate for a fortnight as a result of one of the injections, combined with my usual meds. Ah well, if schools are still open, I can work from home rather than be off sick, and if they're closed, I'll have to work from home but won't have to tell them I'm not allowed to leave the house.

My bedroom is vacuumed and dusted..to my shame it was desperate.

No  snow.  Cold.....bedroom was 9.9 degrees.....
Started penultimate report.
Did Mr T order for us, neighbours and another friend, ready to c&c tomorrow.
Went for a chilly, muddy but welcome walk for an hour or so.
Phone call from care home, MIL unresponsive so taken to hospital. Mr N rang hospital at 7pm, doing lots of tests/scans as they aren't sure what is going on.   Have to ring back at 11pm. Could be a long night.

Hugs, Narc0. Thinking of you and Mr N x

Hugs Mr and Mrs Narco.. sending love to you both whatever the outcome for MIL.. if it is her time I hope all is peaceful and if not I hope she is soon back where she is safe and looked after 💕💕💕 it’s so hard when our loved ones get older and we can not be there 💕💕 

bins out for emptying tomorrow.. 

festive bush is being dismantled on Saturday.. and we have appointments on the 4th and 5th and I am about to send an email requesting Dots assessment.. OH has been gifted some cash so he is adding that to what I have saved and putting the rest off his PC.
DD1 is happy... she picked up a new-to-her DW for not very much so no more washing pots with 4 small children is a blessing! 

Tomorrow I need to do a tip run if it is open ... I need to check that too.. if not I will fill the car and go at the weekend.. my hallway is full of binbags! 

Once the beasties are back at school I will look at tidying this hovel.. pointless doing anything with them at home. 

2x WM today and DW too.. sides s&s’d so we have a little hygiene! 

Welcome newbies.. please stay.. we need new blood and friends... spoons in the jar and hugs aplenty.

ooh.. I have parcels to post tomorrow too.. 2 of them and a 3rd with a bid! Nice to see people are still buying things! FLING!! 

Utility bills paid today so that was my account emptied! Lol

Morning all.  Hugs to Narco and anyone else who needs them.

I am back to work today so will see what flying I can fit in between shifts.

Have a great day everyone.
