Weekly Flylady Thread 11th January 2021

Fayolle

I have had a stressful day at work, didn’t know if I was coming or going, and left late to boot. DD called in the afternoon to say that the hospital want her there on Monday, so nerves are jangling, so much that I nearly fainted twice at work. My soon to be ex-job has been advertised at more hours, which feels a bit upsetting. Then I got home.  And there was the most beautiful bunch of flowers delivered and waiting to be arranged. FROM YOU LOVELY LOT ❤️  Thank you from the bottom of my heart.  If I had Narc0’s flower arranging skills and any sort of IT skills, I would try to attach a photo. Heck, I might just give it a go anyway in the morning when the room isn’t so gloomy.
Flying? Absolutely none, but I do have a lovely vase of flowers to look at. Did I mention that earlier? Xx

nothing got done.. lots of yelling about school stuff.. and that has been sacked off.. Squeak has been so good doing hers.. definitely in for a treat to recognise that at some point! Dot wouldn't even try and howled until I yelled and sent her out of the room before I became a criminal! She did look through a power point and wrote 3 sentences and did a mind map.. it's progress over absolutely nothing at all!
Called the police regarding stinky neighbours.. I walked in my bedroom, caught my dinner in my hands and am now dying of headache.. They WILL move out!

DW, WMs and TD done. I want to go to bed.. but I can't, it stinks.. I love my bed!

Oh dear, HUGS, positive wishes etc to all of you that need, especially Fayolle, Pigpen, but I am sure there are so many folks under pressure every day.  So it makes me pleased to be able to say not much going on here.  Looks like our curfew will be tightened to 6pm when PM speaks tonight which I guess means next week's Thursday evening will get cancelled (a shame because it's my favourite one, 2 lads I've taught for more than 5 years).  DD2 has had a few more refusals so she will be looking for more places to apply to today.   
Radio 2 on as OH at the office today so I can be noisy
Breakfast first then I'll get on with some bits, need to sort all the plastic boxes that are under the tv in the kitchen also need to think about meals as seem to have spent money in the supermarket but don't have much for meals.  
Bed made, clothes picked up and windows have been open.
See you later

Morning xx 

The saga of the mirror continued. Sweetie wouldn't settle so I eventually rigged up his old mirror with an elastic band. That's the long story shortened version! He's still not 100% happy because it doesn't move the way it used to but it's that or nothing...and I tried nothing but it didn't work. 

Piggers - I can't  imagine what it's like to have your house invaded by the smell of weed. My neighbours over the drive smoke weed in their garden and the smell can be really strong  - and that's outside. Hope you get it stopped. xx

 Hugs and love to you all.  Keep on keeping on my lovelies xx

As usual I am up, bed is made and I'm having a brew. I'll have breakfast then get dressed and do the dailies - not enough washing to make a load, and there'll only be breakfast pots to wash - plus I've emptied out the DE jar in which I keep coffee so that I can wash it...DS must have used a wet spoon and it's messy.  There's bits of coffee in the sugar jar too - I didn't train him properly 

Have a good day. 
Stay safe

Pigpen my old neighbours were like that. I actually had both each side smoke the stuff. We have moved now (not for that reason)

Mademoiselle

Both pellet stoves cleaned thoroughly and refilled, not on yet but it won't be long, house is cooling down fast and it's raining.
Breakfast eaten 
Kitchen tidy, I WU the pans that didn't fit in DW last night so it only took 2 minutes to PA this morning and now all is clear, OH always unloads DW whilst waiting for kettle to boil.  Putting the kitchen to bed makes for a good start to the day, must try and keep it up.
Admin emails received this morning dealt with
Banking checked and spending spreadsheet updated
Cat trays cleaned
Trying to get through to doctors to book appointment, not normally a problem so I'll give it a go in a few minutes.  
Got the week for recycling wrong, they did 2 weeks on the run as 2020 was a 53 week year, so the result is my bin is overflowing and has to last another week!  I already have a box full too.  
Time for another hot drink and then I'll try and get on with something

Hugs to Fayolle 
Have a good day everyone!

Morning

WM on

Kitchen done

Another mirror put on in the bathroom.

Raining here too, but very glad we don't have snow or icy.

Other boring stuff admin wise to do today

pigpen

Well I woke up this morning with a swollen face and lips, a sore throat, a gloopy nose and a glorious (now drugged) headache. I hope the police take action soon.

Tipping with rain here, it has been going all night.. and having my gutter leak repaired has lifted the leaky join so the water is pouring over the end  so now I need to get that fixed.. !!!!!!... Sometimes I wish I lived in a rented house where none of this was my responsibility!

And Pudding says all this... ->             

[-pppppppppppppp -=\[a3ezzzzpzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz3eaaaaaaaaaaaaaéáá23w¦

Then the doorbell rang so he ran to the door to answer it and had to be reminded he is a cat and can not reach the door handle nor the key! (It says he would like his breakfast and I am sat here while he starves to death!)

I have a landing tto attempt a bit of clearance on..it is very messy from christmas and I desperately need to do my room and can't with that smell.. and it is too cold to open the window!
