Babysteps towards all of BlackCat's chocolate (when she isn't looking!)

[carrotsandcelery]

Thanks cairn that reminds me - I dusted today as well.

Awright live. How's tricks?

live I haven't eaten any chocolate today, so I'm having a hot chocolate drink as a reward

I've done the sink
Put all rubbish & recycling in wheelie bins
Vacuumed(!)
Just about to attach DD1s gloves to a bit of elastic in the hope that she stops loosing them!

Evening everyone. We are running behind as dd wanted her hair checked again (ie nitcombed again) as a boy at her club this evening was going on about the fact that he had lice - they are in the same class - and she was scared that she might have picked some up.

I am happy to report that I found none. She then decided she would check my hair as dh is working late. I am happy to report I got the all clear, although I have discovered that I have dandruff

Just dh to be combed and inspected for now then. Goodness knows what time of night I will be doing that.

I still have snacks to do and the final load of the dishwasher but I have had enough for now so I am having a wee rest.

Well done on the chocolate bessie. I had a couple of the dcs Thorntons and that seems to have appeased my appetite for now. I have a massive craving for crisps though

Just in from the launderette. Did the on-list jeans/sweatshirts/fleeces but did towels and the bathmat as well.

Have realized I haven't had a proper meal today. Not good, especially since part of my hospital appointment in the morning is to evaluate my weight. ARGH!

I still need to do the washing up/shiney sink and packing for our weekend away.

Would anyone like some ?

Hi all, my DM decided to pop round after lunch, then I had to get DS from school, then it was dinner time so apart from this morning I didn't get much chance to do a lot of flying.
I am hoping tomorrow will be a better day.

I am pretty tired now as I have been awake since 4.30am.

Hope you are all o.k.
xx

Dh is finally on his way home. I wish I had a nurse's uniform and I could be Nora the Nit Nurse for him

Yay! Dh is visitor free

Morning all.

Black your first link got me straight to the Flylady website so it did work! Can anyone tell me what Hot Spots are? Have tried searching on the site but their search function is down.

Best piece of news from this end - the sky was definitely lightening at 07.03 this morning which means spring is on the way, hurrah! Just having a then getting up time.

Right i'm back, having a coffee .

Cairn, Hotspots are like places where things get dumped on a daily basis like on your sideboard for example.

I will attempt another link

www.flylady.net/d/getting-stated/fly-faq/

if this link works it will take you to frequently asked questions and in the list it should explain hotspots.

Gah! Just lost a huge post. Grr!

There are gremlins at work today!!!

Morning all! I hope everyone is on good form today.

I have a really sore stomach and no idea why. I am a bit suspicious of the quorn after yesterday's discussion but it wouldn't make sense as I have never had trouble before. I may have a wee bug or it may be a reaction to dd's hair products yesterday.

Anyway, onwards and upwards!

I am pleased to see missions popping into our daily list. These seem to make a huge difference to the ticking over of the house and are not usually as big as mopping the floor. I will have to do mine in stages as we have a kitchen, dining, living room so it is quite a big area to tackle.

So far I have washed and dressed and got the dcs to school. I have just been having a and some toast to see what my tum does.

Btw, on the lighter morning front, what sort of bird sings its wee heart out at 3am? I had one outside my bedroom window last night singing a lovely wee song in the pitch black of night. Was I hallucinating? Have I finally lost the plot? Or can this actually happen?

carotsyou inhaled too much lice lotion
so far;wiped bath and sink(toilet in seperate room)
cleaned shelves in fridge
sorted 2 more shelves so bookcase is sorted
washings on
breakfast dishes washed and put away
for my next trick i shall reorganize the kids little bits and bobs in the cupboard under the stairs!!
hope you are all ok
back in a bit
p.s is it just me or has MN crashed quite a few times in last 12hr???

It seems to be getting a bit unstable zoo.

I love this thread. I would have spent the morning feeling sorry for myself but seeing that everyone else is busy has motivated me to try to do a few bits and bobs.

I think I may have solved my bird question. it could be a robin We have a little robin who eats from the rabbit run and the compost heap as well as the bird table and a street lamp outside my bedroom window. We also have big ivy outside my bedroom window with a nest in it so it all makes sense now. It was lovely, even though it was 3am.

the lice lotion may have made me hallucinate and made my tummy swell up enough to start some gossip about new wee carrots of the way in the school playground

I will stick to Crabbies Ginger Beer in future.
