Have unfucked breakfast and packed lunches, Sent family off to school. OH likes to do school run.

Still in need of unfucking-

Kitchen
Futility - DD's Bed sheets strewn on the floor, towels and knickers to be washed.
Bedrooms as estate agent is coming to update photos so things need to be shoved into cupboards.
Bathrooms
Wash my manky hair, the no water sitch yesterday really fucked me up in the beauty área.

Need to unfuck some excersise too, but I can feel yesterday's Pilates class.

RalphGnu · 10/09/2013 12:35

Well helloooo fellow unfuckers! Thank fuck I found UFYH, Flylady was not for me. Felt like a fucking knob shining my fucking sink, tbh.

Startef today on the weekend challenge and have unfucked the kitchen, bathroom and am just about to unfuck the fucking laundry. Wish the fucking showers would fuck right off though.

Your ten minutes are up, fuckers, so get unfucking!

buildingmycorestrength · 10/09/2013 12:46

I unfucked loads of kids pics and school work. System in place for future.

Have to dash to shop and then I'll finish the fucker off. Grin

LisaMedicus · 10/09/2013 12:51

Not a good unfucking day here. I am buggering about like a fart in a bottle and it's getting me nowhere.

Too late to unfuck back of chairs.

On the other hand I've unfucked dinner, so that's something. Sort of homemade soup in the slowcooker - ham left from the joint, veggies, a packet of thick country veg soup mix (works for me) and some chopped, skinned fresh tomatoes that needed using up. I loathe chopping and skinning tomatoes. The kitchen looked like a vegetable abattoir.

Trying to get motivated to make bread in the microwave. Think I will pass on that today.

poachedeggs · 10/09/2013 13:23

Well I did over ten hours at work yesterday with cm dropoffs and collections on top of that so I didn't do anything constructive. I put the DC in bed then had wine and brie for dinner Blush

I've done sod all today apart from unfucking my body on a bike ride (it's a big job) but once I've had this cuppa a 20/10 is happening. It will probably include the dishes and a quick bathroom clean up.

Lisa farts in bottles do not complement grandiose epic challenges. Get your shit together!

ZingWantsCake · 10/09/2013 13:23

had to tidy up for a potential buyer, but the buggers didn't turn up!Angry

I took a friend and her baby to osteopath, delivered some clothes to MIL to pass on to SIL for her youngest - another tick!

house looks pretty good (with skeletons hidden away), so I unfucked some rotting ripe bananas and made chocolate-banana-almond muffins for after school treat and I feel like a good mother. salt of the Earth.

nap time

TheStitchWitch · 10/09/2013 13:35

Dh is off work today so the unfucking isn't going as well as I intended, but he has unfucked some of his shite which is a bonus.

I've put fresh sheets on all the beds and put the winter duvets back on as it's getting chilly.

I've unfucked all the washing and put away all the clean piles of washing, that was a massive task on it's own as there we're piles of it everywhere.

I've almost unfucked all the dishes, just about to put them away. All kitchen surfaces are wiped down and tidy.

Bins and recycling are done.

I'm off to clean the shower screen now.

TiredMule · 10/09/2013 13:38

Just fucking discovered this thread!
But I can't for the fucking life of me find the app?! What the hell do I search for?! Please help me-I NEED this in my life!

chickenschicken · 10/09/2013 13:43

It's unfilth my habitat on App Store (for iPhone) but it reverts to unfuck when it's downloaded. No android one apparently.

AdoraBell · 10/09/2013 14:07

My agent is coming to take photosAngry, not entirely her fault, it's overcast and she wanted pics outside. Course our water is heated free by solar panels no zombie invasión is going to stop my OH having a nice hot shower and I used up precios hot water trying to Get futility looking less like an explosión site. OH will be unhappy if we need to Shock purchase heating source from gas company and I'll tell him to Fuck off

Anyway, unfucked list so far

DD1's room -unfucked
DD2's room - unfucked
Lounge - unfucked
DW and breakfast detritus- unfucked
My breakfast - unfucked
Towels and nix washing - unfucked

DD1 is going to have to unfuck her own Bed sheets coz she got fucking permanente marker on fancy, but not expensive, sheetsAngry

I'm pissing off out for a vigouros walk.

Zing it's fucking annoying when they din't turn up, isn't it?

No farts in bottles here, but only because I was expecting the agent.

RalphGnu · 10/09/2013 14:11

Tired I'm on android so can't get the app, so I'm just using the website which is grwat anyway.

I have six huge bags of laundry to do Blush but the electric is running low and I'm stuck at home today so will finish it in tomorrow when DS goes to nursery.

My next challenge is the living room which I'm dreading as there are bricks and toys everywhere and the whole bastarding room needs doing.

Kick up the arse needed here, please. Don't hold back, I'm a lazy fucker.

AdoraBell · 10/09/2013 14:11

Agent isn't coming to take photos

ZingWantsCake · 10/09/2013 14:21

Adora

damn right. bloody bastards!

I tried to sleep but just as I was dozing off a friend called me. by accident.
3 FUCKING TIMES!Angry Angry Angry

I've been guzzling water to make me feel better, but I will need coffee after school run.
it's a long time till bedtime

clare8allthepies · 10/09/2013 14:25

Well I have unfucked my washing machine and done all the ironing, there is no more orange grouting in my bathroom - thanks again Mumsnet for recommending the dettol anti mould stuff.

I'm happy with that for today, back to work for next 2 days but back on it on Friday!

betterwhenthesunshines · 10/09/2013 14:32

Have recently unfucked DCs rooms (pointless task) and have now started on my own piles of rubbish filing systems.

Problen is I like to see everything and have too many projects on the go. If I put things in a cupboard I just forget they're there.

eg. have unloaded EVERYTHING from my desk and storage cupboard onto the kitchen table which is now a huge heap. One pile is "useful notepads" which includes blank school books - all good for making lists, shopping, quick homework notes etc, but seriously I could open a stationery shop. If it sold piles of half used notebooks.

Now just need a new system - that actually works Smile

Love this stuff, never saw the point of shining a sink.

GibberTheMonkey · 10/09/2013 14:32

I've emptied the playroom of all loose stuff and cleaned the carpet. Well I've done the first part. Have to go back over it to dry it out.

How can people have practical unfucked their houses since this thread started? They can live in squalor like I do
(Actually I don't, I'm somewhere in the middle on the minging to spotless scale)

buildingmycorestrength · 10/09/2013 14:48

Gibber I am seriously on a mission to unfuck my entire house before Christmas as it has been about 18 months since I've had a good clear out/deep clean. I need to make the spare room usable before Christmas and various other things have to shift to make that possible.

Other essential tasks are getting left behind. Like the bloody buggering food shopping. Blush.

I just want to 'marathon' it, as the UFYH says, but as they say, it is a shit approach, because life goes on.

I've also been listening to self-hypnosis tracks to motivate me and it is totally fucking working. I am like a decluttering machine compared to how I used to be ... truly weird.

PuddingAndHotMilk · 10/09/2013 16:31

Unfucked all the laundry - 1 load left to put away
Unfucked the nappies and stuffed the fucking pockets
Unfucked the dishwasher, again
Unfucked the fridge

Need to unfuck my desk in my study and set up the mac.
If I get a chance I should unfuck the bedroom and lounge but depends on DD being compliant.

LisaMedicus · 10/09/2013 17:59

My unfuckness has fucked off.

Zing that must be so frustrating. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest their underwear drawer.

poachedeggs Speeches are in the bottle with the fart lol.

betterwhenthesunshines as someone working to beat the hoarding fug, those half used notebooks - I would throw all but two out, and have a clearly defined home for them. I am getting to practice what I preach as I have recently ditched two car boots full of yarn. The notebooks are looming for me, but I have a six year old who uses a lot of paper.

All washing up done and put away, so feeling good about that.

Seven years ago I had to completely turn the house upside down when double glazing put in while seven months pregnant and unable to walk. I wasn't able to sort out the baby's room. The house was fucked. I was unable to reach the top story of house for years. As I was limping towards getting a bit better father moved in with us. House was refucked with reorganisation and his stuff. After a couple of years I recently decided that it is no longer worth me sleeping in the living room (long story) and need to move into the 'junk room' which is such a fuck up that Kim and Aggy wouldn't go there. Added to the leaking roof that left black mold there, there are just piles of 'stuff'. So I have a lot of fuckness to sort. At least I am now sleeping in a bed.

I have piles of crud in the kitchen which could do with going into the walk in cupboard, which is blocked by ironing, which has nowhere to go when ironed until I sort out the wardrobes...

I may be here some time. Currently have PMT which can fuck right off.

AdoraBell · 10/09/2013 18:07

I'm fucked! Did an hour's walking and it's just about finíshed me off. I'm currently taking a muscle relaxant for chest paín, had it checked it's not my heart, the fucking thing seems to be working rather too Well. I can't hold my spare tire inShock Blush

Washing needs hanging, next lot nearly finíshed.

Longtalljosie · 10/09/2013 19:13

Did one 20/10 yesterday and another today. Have a teething baby and back pain so I suspect you guys will be eating off your pristine floors before I'm unfucked...

Mumof3xx · 10/09/2013 20:03

Evening!
