Weekly Flylady Thread 4th February 2008

Dustykitten

I love allyour stitching - I never knew it could be so detailed.

Thanks flyladies for this thread. I have pulled my socks up and refound my kitchen. Hoovered hall and stairs as well so place looking more ship shape.

Bins emptied and tea nearly cooked. By no means level 3 but at least I have improved it.

Hiya
Am I glad I did today's list yesterday - i've only just finished work and need to go and get children from my mum's in 15 mins. Just sitting down for a well earned break (in my opinion). When I bring the children home I need to make 48 cakes for a school sale tomorrow. Why do I agree to these things! Need to make a birthday cake tomorrow but don't finish work until 6 tomorrow so will have to make it in the evening and ice it on Saturday. I'm trying to remember what room we have left to do...is it just the children's rooms? Hope so because they do them themselves.

I've not caught up on the thread but hugs to everyone - nearly the weekend! xx

Taurus - very good cross stitching - love the family one
Likklegibbon - fab cross stitching, what lovely gifts. Hows you dads foot doing?
Pigpen - hope your DD is better soon bless her
Ashbart - thanks for the tea tip, I've got IBS too and am desperate for something to help
Tai - fancy giving my Basset Hound a bath, hes curled up next to me and stinks! Been nagging DH to do it but know he won't and I can manage the subborn mule on my own

Right rant alert: DH is 'ill' i.e. he's pulled a muscle while on his jolly last week and has eaten and drunk so much crap hes feeling 'poorly' so he's laid on sofa all day acting like a child. He didn't help me one bit from coming back from his jolly, I felt like death on Sunday and Monday and he did NOTHING to help. Hope he p*sses off back to work tomorrow. Tea is nothing tonight!

Have been into town and done my shopping and had a cuppa and some cake with DS acting like a star. He loves he's new buggy so happily sat all the way round. Went to Clarkes and got him some new shoes and some wellies from a cheapie shop. Had him running around garden in them this afternoon, soooo cute.

Also finally finished our bedroom wall (which DH hasn't lifted the paint brush, sat on his ar*e watching footie last night while I was doing 2nd coat), beautiful deep, deep dark red - looks fab. Given everything a good clean and put back - thats it on the flying front for today!

Hi all,
Have just made the sausage casserole for tea and its simmering on the stove. I will put some pasta on to go with it in a few minutes.
I was hoping to cook some meals up to go in the freezer but I don't have any tubs to put them in, so I'm just going to have to eat more icecream!! I'll just freeze the meat thats in the fridge.
Apart from that my list is done...how cool is that?? That in itself has made me feel much better. I'm assuming that tomorrow is children's rooms? That should be nice and easy, just dusting and hoovering, though I will sort out the spare room for DH's Gran who is coming to stay on monday.
Of course while the children have said they've finished their room, I've haven't actually checked yet.....best do that before tea.....

[STRIKE]Oddity[/STRIKE]Odie is that small and slinky it's harder to bath him than the bigger dogs I grew up with!

DS2 is clingy, think he is constipated.

FrankieM well done on your list. Tomorrow should be the children's room/spare rooms etc but TBH with pigpen you never know. *mumofjusttwo goes into the corner to hide away from pigpen.*


Pigpen- hope you little ones are feeling slightly better. I always know when my DS is ill as he sits still for more than 5 minutes. Always notice it more when he is ill.



TracyG - what more do I need to say than MEN!!!

Hi all, it's lovely to see Flylady still flying high:T

Evenink all! My yoga DVD arrived today, so I've had a go at that. (Taking up yoga & meditation for Lent as nothing to give up!)
Not done any flying today, as did enough of the bedroom yesterday with the living room.

Rang my mum to finalise picking her up on sat (she thought it was tomorrow I was picking her up :rolleyes:) I've given her the list of chores to do :rotfl: mainly cooking for me all week, and a little bit of sewing that needs doing (I hate sewing). I love when my mum comes to visit!
I'm going to print off this weeks fly-list, and leave it somewhere strategic. Hopefully she'll pick it up while I'm at work & will have done some by the time I get home :rotfl:

Hi moggins

I was only asking about you the other day. How's things?
Hope everything's settled now and you're all well
