Weekly Flylady Thread 11th October 2021

mince and mash tonight for us.. which means pasta sausages/dipper for the girls and boog.

I got a text at 9:15 last night saying the cooker engineer is coming this morning from 8am-6pm.. and my phone was ringing at 8:10... hnestly, I am so fed up. My migraine is STILL lingering.. day 6 BUT I did finally get a call from the GP (technically, I rang them) and I got the hospital referral resent for bloods, the meds increased and finally after 2 years of asking she gave me migraine meds. I am very relieved! I am going to rattle!!

I have cleared and wiped over the hob and front of oven.

OH is bringing milk back from the school run and can load the dw (I can't bend over to do it, I feel like my head is going to roll off) He can then empty and change the litter in the cat trays. I will go make him a coffee now, he usually makes the first cuppa but I can do that and can't do the other things.

His new coat is having its first outing :smile XXL to fit his arms and chest in but it is huge across his tummy.. the XL was tight though

Flicked the WM on so I will get most of that hung out (on airers not outside in the rain) and get the next couple of loads ready to go.

Blue bins just being emptied *fling* room to put more stuff out including the large box which has been a source of fun and joy for over a week but is now lying dead on the floor in the front room.

Cuppa and then I can start on emails and phone calls.

2 loads of washing out, 2 loads of washing in and the TD on with all the tiny things.. have I mentioned I hate socks?

Squeak on her Book Club class.

OH is on about trekking to the gym so I may trot to post office with these parcels and letter1 being Squeak application for school.

Chemist for all the medication in the world.. assuming of course the cooker engineer makes an appearance sooner rather than later.. he will come about 2:45 so OH has to do the school run by himself and I don't get anything done you watch!!

Cuppa first and then clothes followed by emails and phone calls.

I am taking a quick break from Flying to catch my breath and rest my knees, having just walked up- and downstairs about 10 times to load all the scrapstore stuff into my car, ready to deliver later   I have also moved some boxes around in the eaves loft, so that the Christmas stuff is easily accessible.

I need to think about tonight's tea (maybe still just in time to use the SC, if I defrost meat thoroughly first?), fly through downstairs, hoover upstairs, get lunch, and make scones for my friend who is coming this afternoon.

And I need to compose a text to the parents of the little boy in hospital.  Sadly, the news from pathology is not good

Keep safe and well, Flyfriends.  See you later xxx

pigpen

Iona.. I regularly fling fully frozen meat in the SC and just give it a swish once it has defrosted to ensure it cooks properly. Chicken, gammon, pork.. it all goes in frozen.. super lazy! I just put it in half an hour earlier. So sorry to hear the news for the little one is not what anyone wanted to hear. I will be thinking of him and sending healing, painfree vibes and love for his parents too.. Utterly devastating news xx

I have money to transfer to OH for Dots bike and the next main christmas present to buy. December is going to be 'stocking filler month' .. I did all those in one go last year.. went to BnM and got everything.. sweets, smellies, socks, everything... I don't pay the mortgage in December so I can do a busy christmas.. I do make up the payment throughout the year so I am not in arrears!

Off to hang out more washing

Morning all x

bathroom cleaned
DS2’s parcel chased that was out for delivery since last Friday. Haven’t got anywhere yet as online chat things are all robot which go around in circles. I have tried ringing but again automatically thing that just cuts off the call. I have emailed too. Grr

struggling a bit with a black dog around job hunting and the state of my house.

It has been another fortnight of trouble with DS2, the care home may be closing.

Raining here, so indoors for now, been watching the 2 buzzards soaring on the wind.

Spent a very boring morning search house insurance, having had my renewal in, (what how much, ) read all T&C's etc, done comparison sites etc, any way saved  just under £100 for this year, so well pleased. Just going to ring the old insurer and tell them it is running out and I won't be renewing.  Down loaded and save relevant doc.

Daily stuff done

Ironing done

pigpen

Dance.. that must be a nightmare after you just got DS moved and settled.. it's so disruptive for them. ((hugs))

TD's both on.. towels hung out in the rain

Emailed the SEND Caseworker.. waiting for his reply. Emailed the SENCo, waiting for her reply.

Squeak reading. She is making smelly candles with OH after lunch.. science and art all rolled into one!

Oooh OH home... I bet his belly dragged him back starving.

pigpen

Not got the candles made because the cooker engineer turned up and commandeered my kitchen for the afternoon.. but I now have a working oven once more.. I do need to arrange a clean of it though.

2 loads of washing dried and folded and dumped on my bed.

I need to trot to Chemist still and post office.. best get those done tbh before my buyers start whining (justified whining!).
