Weekly Flylady Thread 10th March 2008

Now I need to go collect Tiddles.. and I have 5 ebay parcels to post so I'm setting off early..

I have just realised.. I am selling almost everything of mine from the wardrobe so hubby can have more room for his suits and shirts.. Somehow methinks this unfair!!!

Just about up to date with the flinging.. Thursday tomorrow and that leaves only one room so I have an easy day tomorrow so may hit the middle room or the boys room which is a hovel again... they are so piglike!! But DS3 has had a massive growth spurt so I need to cull his cupboards again (as well as DD1 and DD2's!!!)

I also need to make time to go into town to buy school poloshirts for DD's 1 and 2 seeing as I couldn't get any last year as they had none left by the time it came to the summer holidays starting!! The rest of their stuff is pretty standard and can be bought anywhere! Oh need an order form from the school for their games kits as well.. I'll get DD1 on that I think! And some name tags.. best get those sorted.. I spend hours ironing those on.. I may get some glue and glue the darn things in!.. ooh... DD1 can do them.. there's a fab idea. I'll do this over the easter hols when hubby is home I think..

Right.. post office here I come!!

I'm feeling very reserved and quiet recently.

I love the fireplace and what a clever hubby you have, he must be very good with his hands *Smut alert* as we knew he must be what with all the children.

He didn't use his hands to make the children.. I'll send you DD2's book lol..

Phew I can't believe how much I have done. Also taken out some bin bags of things that I have decluttered. Trouble is if I don't take them away OH goes searching through them to see what I have thrown out and then it will reappear in the house. Going to try another HHI later but am going for a sit down and a cuppa for half an hour before I tackle that too.

Maralum-:eek: I know this may sound harsh but have you contacted a solicitor re access. I am not siure but it may be worth it. This is were you wish that you lived nearer people so that you can try an help them out.

Right I have done NOTHING. *mumofjusttwo goes to make sure that Pigpen is not on line* was hoping DD was going to sleep but it seems not to be. So have decided to do a HHC 12- 12.30

I don't know how babies are made, I kept my eyes closed the whole time because that way it doesn't count!

I'm back - and have done nothing this week yet!

Have read the thread and there are so many people to catch up with, so big hugs to maralum for your situation, michelle for poor charlie and everyone else in need.

Had every intention of starting the list yesterday but came home from work with a stinker of a cold and went to bed at 730 :eek: (still not great today which is why I decided not to go to work). OH had instructions to clean up after tea and all he did was put the leftover food away, all the pots n pans are still there :mad: . So having done the school run and gone to the library to take DD's overdue books back (and found the library closed!!) I've decided to make marmalade . I'm sure my head is full of something other than brains.

Guess I better check on my oranges and clean some things away in kitchen and maybe make a shortened version on Mon/Tues/Wed list!

Catcha all later

Afternoon all (it was morning when I started reading).

Wednesday is bedroom day for me. Stripped and remade my bed. Two loads of washing done, out on the line and already dry, folded and put away! That wind is good for something, see

Dusted and vacuumed all bedrooms.

Vacuumed through downstairs.

Went to shop and paid paper bill, got DH's lottery ticket (hope it's the lucky one). Took dog with me so she had a blow too.

Maralum - sorry you're having such a terrible time:(

And Tracyg too

How are you today Jill?

Glad you're getting more mobile with your wrist Mudbath.

Hope Charlie has turned the corner now Michelle.

I know I've forgotten someone/something.....
