Weekly Flylady Thread 19th February 2024

Fayolle

Morning all,
First cuppa time here too, having been dozing since 4am. The cars are frosty white, the temperature was only 2 degrees when I came home from work yesterday evening, definitely much colder now.
Watched an episode of Sort Your Life Out last night (how did I miss the fact that a whole series had been on without me knowing?) then wrote a list for today. Pulled put my notebook, and there was last weekend’s list, nicely crossed off. Wrote a replica list for today, which was strangely demoralising. So I added Mop Floor for good measure. That won’t get done, for sure.
Clean washing folded while waiting for the kettle to boil. DH still in bed but said last night that he wants me to go through some life admin with him this afternoon. I might hide instead.
Take care all. Hugs, sticks and spoons, please help yourselves x

Morning all, 

My list for today
Get dressed
Feed the animals
Deal with Mr T's delivery
Submit shopping information to the scanning company
Revise for my upcoming uni exam
Do paid stuff
Update and sort out the planner for next week

Think that is everything that I need to tackle today. Hope everyone has a lovely Saturday

I'm not sure what a spoon is but people on here seem to like receiving them so I'm sending you a drawer full.

Oh that did make me laugh. I have visions of a bewildered CoG trying to work out what a spoon is. And how lovely that he has a drawer full to send. Be warned CoG we also throw fluffy mules at each other. And sticks. And swallow frogs - but there's not been any of that recently. Just so you know that it's not just spoons that fly through the ether 💞

I've not flown for a couple of days so I laid low with piggers xx

Still chuckling at trousers made for fat giants too.You guys are better than any tonic 😊

And, after all that, Good morning my lovelies 😘 

A fosty, froggy one here. But the sun is trying to push through. I'm up, made my bed, brought down the laundry hamper, taken my meds, had a brew, completed Wordle and Connections, and caught up with the thread.

I'm considering getting dressed, packing Feargal and running away to Iona. The island not the flylady. Although 🤔 hmmm 🤔 I do believe she too would provide a safe haven. Alternatively I may just get dressed and plod on regardless. Save my petrol ⛽ 

I hope all the poorlies are soon feeling better. Hugs and healing vibes heading out to you.

Round 1
Brew 2 and breakfast 
Sort washing into loads 
Set first load swishing 
Get dressed 
Feed the birds 
Put out the rubbish and recycling 
Put new bin bags in bins 
WUDUPA 

That'll be the basics / priorities done.

Take care

Just having my vertical half hour and watching the sun burn the frost from the cars.  Clear skies though so i’m hopeful the washing will dry.

Hope everyone has a relaxing, peaceful weekend with an abundance of spoons and an absence of frogs.

How did I manage to lose a post?????

Flyfriends are always welcome here, round.   I've never been to Iona so I might come with you.

(((Hugs))) to ASB, DD (and DS) xxx and to Valli x

Once I've finished the cakes I made yesterday, I shall need to join Fayolle in the mopping brigade.
I have to get to a chiropody appointment at 11.00 and DH has only just put breakfast on the table.  Best go and eat it then!

Hope you've all got some of the glorious sunshine and blue skies that we are enjoying here today xxx

Round 1
Brew 2 and breakfast ✅ porridge 
Sort washing into loads ✅
Set first load swishing ✅ been given an extra spin and now pegged out
Get dressed ✅ 
Feed the birds ✅
Put out the rubbish and recycling ✅
Put new bin bags in bins ✅
WUDUPA - WULTD and plastics for recycling are soaking

Second load is swishing. First time I've pegged out this year so gave the washing line a good scrub first. The fog has been burned off and the sky is blue, the sun is out, and the birds are singing. Wonderful out there, but nippy. 

Another blue tit has been exploring the bird house. The hole is just too small at 1" diameter. I'm working up the courage to ask NN (a joiner) if he has a tool to make the hole a bit bigger. I think another quarter of an inch and they'd be able to get in.

Oh. DS is here. Better get kettle on lol

I have mopped not one, but 2 floors 😇. I suspect that the mop has now gone on strike due to the shock.

Jazee

Well done Fayolle.  I really dislike mopping.

Quite a productive morning here.  I have -

Put dry washing away
WULTD
Fed me and the dog
Walked Poppet
Had a soak in bath
S&S'D bathroom and downstairs loo
Done dailies 
Second of three washes is in machine 
Hoovered through 
Found all the paperwork I need for today's life admin

Best laid plans… DD deteriorated, so we rang 111 who sent us to hospital. We were seen immediately and they confirmed she has scarlet fever. Yet more antibiotics prescribed and we are now, finally, home. As the hospital is 40 miles away, I nipped into the Aldi that is just next door to it and bought supplies. Which included wine. Then my bank card was declined. I removed the shampoo and floor cleaner, kept the wine. Tried again and it worked with 3p to spare 🤣🤣 roll on payday… 

Off to get my comfies on and check she is back asleep. 

Round I adore you. But you have me confused (easy done). I always assumed our lovely COG was a lady…. But could well be wrong. Either way I am grateful for the spoons! 

Fayolle - I can’t find my mop 😊😳

Jazee

Oh ASB, what a morning.  Hope she improves quickly now and you've got your priorities right with the shopping!

 I think CoG is a man too, a very kind chatty one.

Iona, before I forget again, I hope you have an enjoyable fly meet on Tuesday.  I was only thinking about past ones recently.

In procrastination mode with regards to life admin, I mopped all the hard floors!  I have now put 40 years of paperwork in separate piles to go through but I need to do something else before going back to it.
