Why, thank you for starting our Monday and Tuesday threads Cod? I will of course use this one so as not to clutter up MN with these ghastly Flylady threads!

Kelly's daily mission

Morning all.

House a hole and out lots of stuff everywhere.

Morning routine almost done though, and kitchen is an easy zone for me though so it will give me the chance to get on top of everything else.

Morning all

DH is working locally so he has just left, after getting the boys dressed, so morning routine complete apart from breakfsts

Shanna I wish my garden was bigger,we only grow in containers at the moment. I would love a smallholdig, so I could grow veg and cut flowers and the boys have enough room to run around. A girl can dream

EV Wiggles poster arrived, but it is A2, so maynot photocopy. Once I am feeling a bit better I will venture out to a copy shop and get it done. Boys are very heppy

Its raining here, was supposed to be snny, so our day at the beach is not happening, will need to think of something to do with them

EV - The virus seems to have moved from throat, ears and head to chest, so I am sore from all the coughing, but the operation seems to have gone really well, scars healed and all that.

I am on hormones, but can not tell wether the sweats etc are from the virus or the menopause at the moment

So all things considered I am fine, just a bit of a lightweight on the doing front.

It is still peeing down, so we are popping round my BFs

I have done the mission

Morning all

cod I can see that you are just itching to join us....you are of course very welcome you know.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes for my DD2.... we all had a fab day... it involved a house full of people, lots of wine (consumed by the adults obviously) bouncy castles and a massive game of rugby with a space hopper as the ball....where at least three of us drunken mums were diving about like eeejits!!

I'm feeling a bit fragile this morning, kitchen is a state! I think every glass/cup/bowl and plate we own is piled up waiting to be washed and put away again!

We will need a trip to the bottle bank too today!

Oh and thanks for all the kitchen comments, we finished it off just in time...I was still tidying last bits as the guests arrived!!

Rowingboat DD2 is already at nursery, they start at 2 and a half here in Wales. She goes 3 mornings a week. She will start primary school september '09

Well better crack on....loads to do
not yet dressed even, and plenty of tidying to do...and the Avon man delivered 7 boxes of stuff that need to be sorted and distributed, so not lacking things to do today!!

Hi,

I'm flagging now...it has taken me all day so far to tidy the kitchen and lounge again!
I had to wash up pretty much every kitchen utensil/crockery we own! It took me a good hour or so to wash, dry and put away (sooner the dishwasher is back up and running the better!)

Well I have to sort the Avon stuff now, just stopped for some lunch.

Evening all

Dinner for the boys is done, bedtime routine to do next.

Then Dinner for me and DH - fried potaotes and leftovers from yesterday.

I think then it is bathtime for me once the little men are in bed.

I have:

Cleaned out the kitchen bin
Mission
Cleaned under and behind the fridge

It doesnt need a full zone clean as it is not too bad.
