Weekly Flylady Thread 17th March 2008

Done so far
1x DW empty
1x TD empty and fill
children fed , dressed and dropped at school and nursery
20 mins jog/walk

Need to ring consultancy job to say I won't be in today as I have an emergency client meeting for part time job. PITA as I am paid less for job than consultancy, have to put ds2 in nursery for another couple of hours, and I have three hours in the car. Oh, and it means an on line shopping order from Tescos rather than a trot round aldi this afternoon.

Right, shower, work clothes, ring boss 2, and do an hour for them to keep them quiet. Find sat nav, find postcode for meeting, put legal head on. Spend meeting checking watch to make sure I leave on time to get boys at 3. Parents evening at 5pm

Hope everyone has a good day.

Morning everyone

I had problems getting on the site most of yesterday hence being back on page 13 :eek: so loads to catch up on.

going to catch up with a mate soon but wanted to pat lil_me on the back for the great pass , send hugs to tracy, don't ever apologise for that you think everyone else will perceive as a small problem. We are all here for each other no matter what issue any one of us is dealing with. I know nobody would want to walk a mile in my shoes, I wouldn't wish that on anyone plus these shoes pinch but by the same token I don't think anyone else's shoes would fit me either so rant away you are in good company. Also hugs to boddy the rumour mill is just that, easy to say I know but those type of people are not worth wasting energy on.

Right I shall no doubt be posting more relating to events of 24 hrs ago later on :rotfl:

See you all lllllllllllllaterrrrrrrrrrr

Thanks for the PM Serena, will reply later

Morning ladies :hello:

Beautiful day here. DDs bed covers are out and will hopefully be dried soon (I know its not kids room, but I like to strip her bed when she's at her dads). WM is on with coats that I am giving to the charity shop. I'm also doing the bathroom today as I've got a lot to do today. I've got a lot of sorting to do in my bedroom so want to do that tomorrow when I can spend a lot of time on it.

I've got my first counselling session this morning, so will walk there and back, thats my HHE sorted. I think I may go via Tesco to buy a baby gift. I'll need change for the bus to get to my RC class. Feeling more nervous about being weighed than counselled!!

Tracy - glad to hear you're sounding brighter this morning and I hope the funeral goes ok. Are there no flyladies near you?

Shelley - hope your Dads better soon

Mudbath - good luck, be brave!!

Frankie - snap with the room swapping today

Michelle - only 2 days left. Exciting stuff. Can you believe some of the schools in Scotland are at school on Good Friday? I'm sure someone has made a mistake there.

Jill - how are you feeling this morning? Have you been to see your GP recently honey?

G&B - no idea about the ebay stuff sorry. I'm sure someone will know. And I love the lighter mornings!! Roll on the clocks going forward

Pigpen - I'm not happy with you. I have worked v work this week and you havent given me a biscuit. Hmph! *sulks*

Right, better shift myself. Laters peeps xx

Morning :wave:

Why is it I start on Monday full of good intentions and by Wednesday it has all gone to pot? :sad: Worked paid job yesterday, didn't do kitchen, the floor is a disgrace. Got fed up with teenager arguing all the time, so went on strike and went to bed early.

Mudbath: Hope your operation has gone well today

Tracyg: I know how you feel, it can be a very lonely place, at home with a little one and I didn't like some playgroups either, cliques etc. but then I found a really nice one and it changed my feelings of loniness (I had also come from another country so it wasn't easy to be accepted) you really have to put yourself out there, which I didn't find easy. (((hugs)))

Well I have work to get to and hopefully I can actually do something from the list today and sort out that filthy kitchen, I am deeply ashamed, Have a great day everyone and :grouphug: for those who are having a hard time of it.

DS2 is fine.. it was a growth review.. they are trying to iron out a 'supply' issue with his growth hormone and supplied us with some needles to tide us over until his are delivered.. he told me yesterday he had 3 left!!

They have actually linked both his and DD4's appointments for next time so that should make life easier.. I might not get my couple of hours with them on their own but never mind.. hubby won't be able to whinge about having to take 2 days off work!

Any ideas how we can get another 5kg on him before August?!!

I could do with getting some more weight on my DS. He's 8 1/2 and has just gone into age 6-7 clothes! He's on the lowest centile - the blue one at the bottom. The thing is he was 9lb 10 when he was born - the biggest of the three of them (though they were all over 9lb). My DS just doesn't eat.

I have a cousin who was always small for his age, then shot up and his now a strapping 6ft something and a detective with the Thames Valley Police (until he emigrates to Australia soon, lucky thing!)

Summermoon i'm so sorry for your loss.
Mudbath good luck.
Tracy hope all goes well today.
Fallenangle hope your dad gets better soon.

We have 2 doctors coming out today and i'm dreading it. Got a phone call yesterday from home treatment team as we missed them because of going to the dentist, they never say when their gonna call out or what time. They seem to think life stops because OH isn't well and that we should be at home but life goes on things need to be done, if they'd just give a time and date. Plus i could see social being out again and i really can't be bothered with that. The whole phone call last night was about me coping and if i get any time to myself, with hubby being unwell and 3 lively kids how am i suppose to have time for myself.:mad:

Sorry for the rant but it really annoys me and the best of it is they'll discharge him today even tho he's no better just calmer through being sedated but that will be enough for them and it's me left to sort it out by myself awwwwwwww:mad: Sorry again.

Right cuppa and get the kids into the garden, then give the main rooms a quick going over.

Right, nothing for me to do on the list today as I did it over the past couple of days. Bedding is Fridays for all the beds. So I'm off out for a cuppa with the mum of my son's friend. He is going there for tea and straight on to cubs after (she's one of the leaders) and I need to take his cubs uniform round, so she's invited me for a cuppa.

Pigpen do I deserve a doggy biscuit (or veggie equivalent!)? I did a very brave thing yesterday and managed to get a spider out of my kitchen!!!!!:eek: It was a big one - I didn't even need a magnifiying glass to see it!:rotfl:

Morning all just saying high as I'm off to the garden centre
Hugs Tracey and Mudbath I'll be back for a ctach up after lunch:

Morning everyone.

Just had a quick catch up. Not much flying today as Im out with daughter again this morning then at my vol job. I think I said yesterday in my post about me thinking about daughters ex last week which was unusual. She told me yesterday he had turned up at hers last week unexpectedly. She had not seen him for years. Very strange.

AnWsmum Rumour mill still going full pelt and now we know the source. Spoke to my daughter and she is much calmer.

Tracyg. JillD. Vanilla Big hugs to you all.

Mudbath Thinking of you.

Fallenangel Hope your dad feels better soon.
