Weekly Flylady Thread 23rd January 2023

Fayolle

Reading along with you all, but having a stressful time at work, so flying is limited / on the back burner. Dinner was a toasted bagel, as I just wanted to curl up on the settee and get lost in the tv.
Normal service will resume, maybe in a couple of days.
Take care all x

Piggers your lovely don’t let anyone make you think otherwise! 

I shall take your word for it

urgh.. graphics driver update. I shall download that and I am off to bed.

2 things to package tomorrow

OH can wash the pots in the morning.. like I said , I am NOT doing it

OH can also sort the cat trays.

I want to photograph more, I barely toughed the immense box (slightly bigger than my washing machine!!!! )
Recycling out

wipe everything over.. it is all just sticky.

Vacuum.

Prod EC to ring to chase mw appointment since she missed the Sunday one, she was working until 4am!! .. she is doing very little other than sleeping and watching tv so she will need prodding.

I really wish I was a domesticated OCD clean and tidy person today I am just fed up of the mess.

Girls are STILL awake.. they will be a joy tomorrow.. and they are all going to bed straight after dinner.. I may do dinner at 4pm.. I am so done.

pigpen

OOoh I think you have all slept in!!! I'm usually last one about!

DW repair booked for Monday.. that is a lot of pot washing for everyone because I am NOT doing it.

Waiting for the postie to collect these 2 parcels and I have 2 more to package.. I can't post until Friday though as I have no pennies.

Senco has said the support is in place for Dot after they got someone from the outreach team to come look at her EHCP and boss them into putting more in place for her. Things have been better the last 2 days with the additional (outlined in the EHCP) support in place which she should have had since last March.. not necessarily a 'better late than never' situation.

OH has pots to wash.. Boog can do them tomorrow, DS2 on Friday and OH and Pixie on Saturday because she will want to be involved.. and possibly DS2 on Sunday and Boog can do the cat trays then.

Morning all.

No lie in here Piggers.  I've just finished paid stuff for the day.
Going to wash up, walk Poppet then see what I can fit in before going out with friends for the afternoon.

Have a great day everyone.

Morning all. Hope everyone is well.
@pigpen, I hope your DW gets fixed soon, it's terrible without one when you're used to having one. 
@asparklyblonde, glad you found your sheep.
Shopping yesterday, so almost no flying. Some today, full of vigour, ready to get on. So far I've loaded DW, got three grandchildren up and dressed and fed. Then... Cleaned up two lots of sick and redressed youngest. Sent two to school and have one here now watching tele. May not get much done! 

Hugs, mumtoomany.xxx

Monday they're coming... so OH washed most today and I did the oven trays, cat bowls, table mats and a few plates.. we are using the DW as a drainer lol.  Tomorrow Boog is doing them and Friday DS2. OH will do Saturday with Pixie helping no doubt and Sunday may well be Squeak and Dot.. Supervised!!! Boog threw a MAJOR wobbler, gaslighting, puttin words in my mouth and outright lying so has been told if he cannot contribute to the household he can move out.. I am so very sick of the attitude. I do not wash pots!!

I have however..

4x WM

2xTD

2 airers cleared and refilled

2 loads folded from TD's

Pots all cleared

Kitchen S&S'd

3 litter trays emptied.. 1 refilled because the other bag is full and too heavy for my to lift.. OH has a break soon so can do it then.

Infected finger poked and popped and squeezed.. it was very satisfying.

I have not tidied the front room but I have gather the laundry to start filling the machine for the next 2 runs.. I am exhausted and my tummy is playing up and my bones hurt. I can't take more medication because that is the cause of the tummy issues..

2 parcels collected.. 2 more to package

Daily stuff done

It has warmed up outside, and is now raining, before I was able to get out and do some cutting up of wood, with my new saw.

Leaking water butt, has been drying out in the garage, I have now filled the split for now with deep fill polyfiller, OH has some waterproof tape somewhere to stick over that, when remains to be seen.

I woke up really early this morning and lay there contemplating all the little jobs that needed doing that were bothering me.  By the time I'd organised the written list it was 34 different things, most of which are now done.  I need to finish off a few things that are soaking before being scrubbed, take some photographs for listing some things on Gumtwig at a later date, make my sandwiches for tomorrow when the breadmaker spits out a loaf, then I'm done for the day on Flying type stuff.  That'll make life a lot easier when it comes to cleaning.

I've also removed a huge amount from the freezer because we need to eat it.  This No/Low Spending lark has meant that the sweet potato and lentil curry was turned into three bowls of soup with the addition of another box of mushroom stock, some leftover Christmas turkey will be sandwiches for lunch tomorrow, a box of lamb slices and leeks in cheese sauce are supper tonight, and tomorrow night's sweet and sour chicken and rice are defrosting in the fridge, ready for when I'm too shattered to do anything other than ping cuisine.

I'm rather chuffed with that.

Today I have decluttered my post-op check at the Regional Heart and Lung Centre.  I'm delighted to say that everything is healing well and I have been given the go-ahead to start driving again.  Freedom at last!!!  It's not the end of the journey of recovery, though, as I now have to get fit and lose a considerable amount of weight, for which I shall be attending the cardiac rehabilitation centre as soon as they have a vacancy for me.

Flying-wise, today I have FUPA clean washing, made the beds, cooked lunch, wiped round the kitchen, decided what to have for tea tonight, and phoned my insurers to check that my car policy is still valid (I am not required to notify the DVLA).  Not as productive as Honey_Bear, but better than nothing!

Hi all x

I’ve decluttered a day of sleep. Auntie Flo has a lot to answer for. I woke up about 9 and moved into the LR and fell back asleep to about 5pm. I’ve washed up, had a shower and stuck a load in the TD. 

I’ll try again tomorrow.
