Weekly Flylady Thread 7th April 2008

DS has just had major hysterics at the hoover. He is 15 months, and has always done that at hoovering. Sometimes I can get by with a ewbank, but it doesn't do as good a job or get into the corners. I'm not sure how much that says about my cleaning - but he gets absolutely distraught. It doesn't help that he has needed a nap all morning, refused to sleep, gone to sleep just as I was about to do lunch, was woken by noise from next door...

Done level one (just) and got a load of washing in - the load of washing I was supposed to get round to yesterday. Mind you, it was a load of 'naughty knickers' so perhaps its just as well or the man from the gas would have been struggling past a pile of sussies along with everything else I've put three items on ebay, which is something, and sorted out a folder, and reported the rat in the garden, so it's not all doom and gloom.

Trying to work out how to get DS to eat properly now. Apart from juice and chocolate he seems completely uninterested. He looked like he fancied a bit of mum's toast, but when I gave him a bit he just casually threw it across the room, so I guess not.

Lil-me - argos are a pain in the fundament.

Must go - DS is un-de-cluttering the living room

5 hours and i have only got 105 words of the essay done...

have PAGES of notes...to try and help me get my head round it.... but notes dont get marks! And im struggling to convert notes into essay.. :rolleyes:

Eating like a horse... all junk. Nothing nutrious or resembling a meal. But i feel better nibbling on stuff when im trying to concentrate on uni work.

Bums gone numb from sitting for so long.

Pah.. why did i sign up for this course?!!

Johanne, whats the essay on?

When I was doing my OU essays I used to sort my notes into a rough order for the essay and then just start typing. When I'd got it all down I then reorganised it and reworded bits, until I was happy.

My house is a pit... I am feeling rather overwhelmed by it all this week.. god help us when the children finish for summer.. I think I'll have to put every single thing into storage for 2 months!!

PMSL @ the Olympic torch carryings on.. let's hope that the Chinese government actually listen to the rest of the world and get themselves a decent Human rights record.. I wish I had time to be a human rights activist.. my sister majored in human rights when she did her law degree.

Why not put the kids in storage, at least you could tidy and it would stay that way????:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
