Weekly Flylady Thread 3rd March 2008

Ginger_Girl

Hello Everyone
Having a BAD day! Woke up with raging cystitis - sorry if too much info! Spent day in bed with hot water bottle, parrots and some stuff that tastes a bit like pond weed! Feeling brighter now - so will try some minor flying tonight when gingerkids in bed.
Aim is to do some ironing whilst watching something mind numbing on telly.
DD1 came home with a major cob on - could she be hormonal at 9?? DS won the sash award at school - he's so proud of himself! He rang DH at work to tell him all about it! DD2 has been bossing everyone around. She asked if there was a baby in my tummy, when I said 'no' she pointed at my wobbly bits and said 'Well - what's that then??'. Guess it's time to diet!!!:rotfl:

DH's xbox steering wheel has sold on amazon for a LOT mor than it would go for on ebay, even after Amazon have their cut, so he is pleased and I have to package it up.

Flying... well the living room and kitchen are fine, I did a lot over the weekend. The kitchen floor however is covered in mud as DH and his friend have dug up whats left of the grass, mainly dog poo and mud,and are right now, away getting paving slabs to go down :j woohoo, hopefully soon, no more muck! So not worth mopping right now.

Been keeping up with stuff by doing my hours 'de-childing' of the living room and kitchen when snots and grots go to bed.

GP update, the spasms started to ease off by Sunday, couldn't get an appointment today but spoke to the GP again who said that I could try again tomorrow or just drop off a sample, but it's not nearly as bad now.

Off to call DH, and tidy a bit or something.

Hi Folks :hello: :hello: :hello:

Was away for the weekend. So back to flying.

Big hugs for everyone, whether you need them or not.

Oh and I have a bruise to rival pigpens!! Will try to sort a pic, buts it ok. Its on my knee, not my bum :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

SummerMoon

I think you might be right gunsandbanjos. DP thinks I am mad, but hey, its getting the jobs done and i'm not as stressed as i used to be.

Keep those challenges coming .

Nicki, big hugs, wouldn't give up on the benefits thing just yet, I know of seperated couples living in the same home who have claimed benefits when one partner stopped supporting the other financially, might be worth looking into. Also maybe get some advice from the CAB or a solicitor with regards to the debt issues etc. Good luck honey, I know the situation isn't easy right now but sure you will get through it as you're a tough cookie.

Evening all, assignment one POSTED, if it's right or not is another matter, just pleased it's gone!!!! On with the next one from tomorrow, possibly tonight, will escape out of the way of DP and his friend.

Sitting room, hall, dining room, conservatory and kitchen all tidied and cleaned within 2 hours in a panic tidy for friend arriving. DP been talked into getting takeaway for them so just the boys to feed, DS2 done, DS1s cooking now.

Right I best finish DS1s dinner before it burns, might be back later have a good evening everyone.
