Weekly Flylady Thread 8th January 2018

Yesterday I got 2 loads of washing done, dried, ironed and put away too so still no ironing mountain. This is my new year's resolution, to get in the habit of putting washing away straight away, most things go in TD so it doesn't take long to iron what needs (and my ironing board lives on the landing so is always ready) and thn put all away. I feel a bit of a fraud as most of you have huge challenges and manage so much. But keep reminding myself progress is progress, baby steps do work.

Also took OH to mick up hire car so we are all mobile again, went to garage to book mine in for service then cooked dinner and left instructions before going to paid stuff.

Paid stuff today 10 - 5 but have tidied round living room and kitchen and done 1 load ironing (taken out of TD this morning) and load of washing put on. Load in TD will get done when I get home and more washing put in. Hopefully by the end of next week washing should be up to date and I can concentrate on keeping it that way.

Weightloss, slow but ate good meals yesterday again but colleague back from UK had some lovely chocs so a few of them decluttered, oops. But again my objective is to be lighter in Feb than in Jan and carry on the year like that. Yes I want to lose 12 kg approx 2 st but if I set that as a target for this year and have only lost 6 by the september I am likely to see it as Failed but just saying I will be lighter each seems doable. Any weight lost will be better!

Next thing is to increase exercise, hope to buy a fitbit soon to be able to monitor progress.

Finished coffee so off to paid stuff!

Hugs all round and don't forget to SMILE

donnajt slow down, fainitng on the bus, goodness me, you were lucky to didnt get hurt, please take care.

Just set aside a load of money for HMRC tax bill for the end of Jan.............1. so I don't forget, 2. so I still have it!

Been doing 'admin' type stuff since 7.30am but I seem to be at the end of the heap now, all except down loading my holiday photos........the card will not fit in my lap top so I download them direct from the camera, except the camera battery is flat so that is currently charging up........

SC on with beef casserole

Mid- day check in for me.

Pickle's bedroom is all sorted. New wardrobe all set up, furniture moved round to make a bit more floor space and toys put away properly. Floors hoovered and all surfaces wiped.

Then it was onto our bedroom. Decluttered, wiped down the surfaces changed the bed (although I need to go and buy a bottom sheet this afternoon, it seems the one I picked up last week was a single not the double required. Pain in the bum!)

This afternoon is a visit from someone to quote to repair our front room blinds, wardrobe packaging to the tip and biting a new sheet. I might pick up a few bits of food to get me through until friday/weekend. Need to have a peek in the cupboards.
