Weekly Flylady Thread 12th July 2021

Evening Folks x

Early start today, dropped DH off at work so I could have the car today. After shredding some paperwork, I moved on to DG’s to take photos of large machinery and locos taken. Items gathered ready for buyer collecting on Friday. Bird poo window cleaned. Tried to source some cardboard boxes. Mr S is saving me some to collect tomorrow. My friend was more successful so I have enough for now.

We are going to get a builder around there to see how much the most urgent work would cost. Then I suppose get a survey done and then get financial advice to see how much we can afford. I best ask for those fabulous Flylady getting job from Thursday’s interview vibes, pretty please.

Picked DH up from work.


My full charity bag has not been collected so I’ve had to bring it back in.

Ground floor vacuumed 

Valli hope you are OK, DS1’s test came back negative so it must have been a normal chest infection x

Mmm good luck with the job hunt, it is so complicated jumping through hoops these days. X

Narc0lepsy

Get well wishes Valli. 
Went swimming.
Went to Ald1.
Did a load of gardening, which has to be today's flying really - feeding/deadheading basket and pot plants; staking up over-enthusiastic eryngium which had been flattened by yesterday's storm; weeding etc.
Did some drum practice.
Did various bits of admin.
Wrote summary for last Friday's lesson, planned this week's.
Started researching our few days away.
Good vibes heading your way Dancemum.

Good morning!
I am in (better late than never!!) Thank you ladies for the lists. Valli I hope your test comes back negative & that you are feeling ok.
We got back Friday. DH has done very little since then, which is so frustrating! I really feel like I have wasted a week off. I could have done so much here, and I don't feel relaxed. I can't afford to take another week off because I am self employed. Is it bad that I am craving a day or two to myself?
Bedroom windows have been repaired (blown units). Windows were cleaned, and bedroom (including empty bay) vac'd. Kitchen & hall floor cleaned (on hands and knees), stairs and landing vac'd, LR vac'd - and that was Monday! Meanwhile DS & DH were faffing with podcast stuff which is beginning to really pee me off tbh!! Nothing else gets done! Yesterday was paid stuff. I emptied DW, WULTD, wiped kitchen surfaces, WMx1 hung out then FUPA. Dog walked. I had a mad HH in the garden after holby and chopped down lots of the grape vine! It has gone mad, and flopped all over the border after the rain. I was getting bitten, so retreated indoors. It is still over the grass, so I will have to sort that today. I need to order a new compost bin because I have filled mine & I don't want to send it to landfill. We went to Hampton Court flower show on Sunday so I have lots of flowers to plant! 😁
Paid stuff today. I might go out, but with 2 under 2's it can get tricky with nap times.
Have a good day everyone. Hugs to those that need them, and healing vibes to those that are poorly. Plenty of sticks & spoons available - help yourself!!

Good morning everyone. Hope everyone is doing well, hugs to those who want/need them. 

My list for today:

• Open the windows and let some air in - DONE 
• Do paid stuff - DONE
• Send paperwork over to the insurance company - DONE
• Tidy the pile in the corner of the bedroom
• Tidy and clean the bedside table
• Send text message to bestie
• Take the photos that are needed for job application
• Finish applying for the 2 jobs in my inbox
• Dust the bedroom and the landing
• Clean the windows in the landing
• Look for new badges for the car - DONE
• Declutter 100 emails from inbox - DONE

I think that is everything that I need to tackle today. Hope everyone has a good Wednesday. 

Well, today didn't go to plan, as I ended up doing overtime at work, but at least it means more money on payday.

Morning all

We spent what felt like most of yesterday at the horse piddle, for DH's pre-op assessment.  He is now waiting for a letter from the consultant's secretary, within the month - hopefully giving him a date for his op.

Today it's my turn - I have to go for a CT angiogram.  But I have already
- stripped the bottom sheet and pillowcases and re-made my bed
- done WMx1
- stripped all the bedding off DH's bed 
- hoovered round downstairs
- S&S'd the kitchen and bathroom
That is likely to be the sum total of flying today!

(((Hugs))) spoons, sticks and good interview vibes to all in need xx

Morning all,

Another one creeping in late! I have done absolutely nothing these past couple of days, I have just been too wiped out with my medication. Playing catch up today - two loads of washing are drying on the line, the WM is on a hot wash, bed stripped, toilets bleached and hob cleaned. I have also delivered x3 egg deliveries.

My brain isn't absorbing much info at the moment, so I will send you all love and hugs xx

Went for a drive to the nature reserve with the kiddies. It was stressful! All 3 fell asleep on the way home, I had to park up the road & only had one buggy! 🤦‍♀️ The 4 yr old woke up (he is far to big to carry!), 21 mth old in the buggy & carried the 16 mth old. They slept for another hour or so, and are just finishing their lunch now. 
Grumpy dog has a poorly tummy again 😥 He was whinging so I put him in the garden. He is now sleeping out there and can stay there until DH gets in. He has shade, water & a blanket to lay on.
I have ordered myself a new hot composting bin, at a discounted price through the council - very MSE! I am happy with that! 
ASB I hope the medication settles down for you x

Volunteer gardening done, told the lady I won't be coming any more, explaining about self isolating covid tests / chemo etc. She understood thank goodness, I did offer to find a replacement but she said no, he son who it seems visits most weekends can do some weeding etc!

Now I know about OH's appointments I have book my 'invitation to breast screening' appointment, this is at the local hospital.

Done the kitchen

Cleaned the bath~~ it was dusty as no one used it.

OH gone to visit his family, so I am home alone for the next few days, not too sure what to do.

Was going out walking but the sea fret has come in, it is windy and cold out there.

ASB the love and hugs gratefully received here, I am feeling a little fragile today.  Sending the same back to you, take it easy x

Dancemum, I know its early but sending you lots of good luck vibes, you really deserve something to go your way!

I have put some clean washing away and done the basics.  A bit of telly and an early night is in order.

Mademoiselle

Hugs, sticks and spoons to you all. 
Been and emptied most of the stuff out of DD1 flat, all now put away at home and WM, double bed  and mattress etc loaded in car for DD2.  We're going to other house tomorrow evening then meeting up with DD2 in her new appartment on Saturday morning.  OH working from home in other house on Friday.  WM on for the 2nd time today.  Cat stictches treated with disinfectant.  All looking good.  
See you tomorrow. xx
