Weekly Flylady Thread 25th February 2008

I don't believe it!!! I didn't know you could just use the strike button...i've been typing in [strike] etc...that'll save about three minutes in my day!

Pigpen - think it's the week for arguments with school. I've had a rant with our head teacher because it's one rule for the children with parents who don't give a damn and another rule for children with parents who care. The playground at school is smallish and they're not supposed to play football before or after school for 15 minutes. This morning DS got a ball smack in his face...knocked him flying and he cut his head. I told the head to tell the children to stop....I was told...'i'll tell them when their parents have gone as they can get a bit shirty.....' Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Is he a man or a mouse?

Anyway rant over.

Soappie can you welcome buster to the fold. I'm looking forward to regular updates.

My list;

Washing Wednesday- Living Room, Hall and Stairs
Level 1
Vacuum floors and sofas
Level 2
Dusting, even if around everything & water & wipe the poor neglected plants!
Remove clutter making sure stairs especially are safe
Clean TV, other electricals and cabinets
Vacuum under furniture you can manage to move without hurting yourself
Level 3
Wipe light switches, sockets (make sure they are not switched on!!) and banister
Clean windows & any other glass like mirrors, pictures etc
Tidy shoes, coats and bags .. Are there any that need rehoming?
Wipe skirtings, doorframes and other paintwork
Extra Mission:
Pick one or more of the following tasks –

• Paperwork clearance.. spend 15 minutes minimum sorting through those piles of paper.. the bottom 6 inches is just rubbish it has been there so long I'm surprised it isn't compost!!

Pigpen your mood has inspired me:

Mystery shop - service appalling - will be reporting
ASDA - complained about the car wash people as they are starting to get really menicing standing in the road as you try to drive down
Gas van behind me - driver was on mobile phone - I have noted his number how best to grass him up?

Oh and been next door to ask them to have the huge over hanging branch cut off their tree.

That just means you will be as obnoxious as me.. when I went back to collect tiddles.. both prams gone and the staff were very nice to me.. and Taffy.. I am already a problem parent, have been for years.. hence I got voted parent governor last year.. heehee.. hence the assistant head didn't talk to me she got the lovely yr 2 teacher to do it after yelling at her.. that really annoyed me.. how dare she yell at another member of staff!!!! That is appalling and intimidating and bully tactics.. I am furious on her behalf!
