Weekly Flylady Thread 28th April 2008

Hippy110

Working to my own list of sorts atm, done 'paid' work today plus filing and paper sorting (that is never ending). Finding all sorts of things - some have looked for recently and others should be Mudbath's 'total garbage' file. Poohbear - thanks for the tip about the Really Useful boxes - went to Staples on Friday to get one for my foolscap files - perfect, still finding them all to put in though! Managed to just about resist buying the full range.

Pink Fairy - hope all is OK for your DD and you get good news soon

Johanne - lovely photo, enjoy

Embb - well done to your DD

AnW - enjoy spending your winnings

Welcome to all the newbies this week and last, daren't list as I'm bound to forget someone

Pigpen -thanks for the lists might not be doing as much as I want but at least I'm doing more than I used to.

Morning all

Bathed, just about to get dressed, make sandwiches and head up the road - early again because of the road works - I'll time how long it takes me to get through this morning.

Have a good day ladies

Johanne - Sarah is really lovely.

Hello to all the newbies!

Up early because we have to drop the kitten off at the vets for 8am, then drop DS1 at school. Have already got the DW and WM on with the white bedding. Hoping to get a lot done today but am waiting on some information from a client which may take over the rest of today to sort.

Looking like it is going to be sunny again, we have spent all weekend in the garden but still it needs more. Amazing the difference a few days of sun has made - the wisteria is just starting to flower and a few rhododendrons. If I spend the Wilkos voucher (Thanks everyone - especially Lil-me and Pigpen!) on lots of compost to mulch with do you think our delivery man will hate me for ever?

Morning folks,

Lunches made
hoovered round
1 cupboard done, another load to go.

Have a good day all.

She is lovely Johanne

embb

Morning :wave:

Johanne Sarah is gorgeous, what a little cutie x
Dusty Did I get the wrong person, I could have sworn it was you with the bad back, maybe it was polly or poohbear? lol doh!
Trace Yes he's still yacking on, Bless his little cottons...:D

Thanks for all the congrats for DD, I passed them on and she says Thank You....... apparently one of her friends friends got past the telephone interview then fell at the face to face interview which I presume she will also get on Thursday (actually we've no idea what will happen as the guy didn't say, he just said to go for a tour) anyway, told her it didn't mean she was going to do the same etc etc so she's kinda all positive again - we'll have to see.

Work for 5 hours today so that's most of the day spoken for (9am -3.30 after travelling) will then need to do some paying of bills etc etc and will have to push the hoover round too as it's hacky and of course cook the tea

Well, smell ya laters gators. Traaaaaaa :hello: x

Right, I promise to try to catch up at some point, assignment isn't finished so we have until Wednesday to do that so it'll be manic studying non stop with a bit of housework in the middle (ignoring what I don't NEED to do! - Sorry!)

Good luck with the studying lil_me.
I have been known to do housework as a displacement activity when faced with an essay:eek:
