Unfuck my habitat

[GibberTheMonkey]

Do we have a thread already?
The prissy fly lady lot do
Anyone want to join me?

Health Dept is still investigating but they think that norovirus may have got into the water system. It survives quite Well in potable water so if it is that the entire system needs To be cleaned out. We'll hear moré next week. TBH I'm just glad my Two aren't effected.

Bit moré unfucking done yesterday, Vacuuming, killing ants, Ironing, shopping and feeding people (only the family but I still had cook), making easter Style nésts out of cornflakes, no Shredded Wheat here in forrinland, towels washed and left out on the line over night - Oops- and a kinda meal plan, in loose terms.

MrsNouveau hope DS is better very soon and you Get a lot of good night's sleep. Good luck with the surveyer, not To mention the unfucking.

One of the dogs has grubby ears, not inside tough. He grovels To one of the others, típs of his ears Get caked in mud and that attractive flies. So, I have another fucking Job do scrubbing the típs of his ears. Have To use a soft brush as it's not coming off just with water. He's lovely though, just sits there and let's me Get him clean

Fuck I'm bad at this .....

I Fucking love Saturday! The one day a week that I can have a lie in, although this could be my last for a while.

Adora norovirus in the water tank?! [shock*]

So, as usual I waited until the last possible moment to unfuck for the surveyer. But I did our bedroom and hoovered upstairs in about 45mins. As always I then feel cross with myself for being so slatternly day to day.

It turns out DS has Hand, Foot and Mouth, which would explain the bad cough, sore throat, cold etc...

Today I shall continue with the laundry mountain, make scones with DD, sort horse out for tomorrow, ride, learn dressage test, see friend, do shopping.

So I have been up since 630 with dd

Unfucked

3 dc fed
3 dc dressed
Half pots washed
One load in dryer
Highchair cleaned
Hob cleaned
Laundry folded
Kitchen swept

Not just a tank, the entire fucking water system. All the pipes have To be treated and flushed through. I'm still not sure it is that, DH was yapping at me when I tried To read yesterday's email, but they are cleaning it out with mega levels of cholorine. Still no school Monday.

Yesterday I surveyed the laundry, then the warbrodes and decided Nothing needs be washed over the weekend. Went out Today, dropped DD2 at a friend's then headed into town. Back late, meals done, dishwasher sorted, DD was delivered back and we watched a movie. DH has done dog feeding, I've still done the cleaning out of the pen and yesterday Planted another tomatoe plant. Got lot's on the other one, not rípe yet but not far off.

I want to try horse ridíng, soon as DDs are back at school. I used To be afraid of them but I've got this idea in my head that I want To ride, so I'm going To try. When I've been To the stables recently I managed To walk around the horses without getting anxious

How can something like that get into the whole system? Sounds like something from a zombie movie or something! :o

The thing with riding is that you can start at any age, and there are so many different sports within it that there is something for nearly everyone. You need to find the right place to learn, somewhere that they have the right horse, and the right attitude, so that if you suddenly decide you don't like it you are not feeling pressured.

I massively lost my confidence after having the kids and I am slowly getting it back. It is just the not every day stuff that makes me nervous now - hacking on my own, going to competitions etc. So I try very hard to play down the pressure. I found an NLP riding instructor who also helps enormously, she gets why I'm a fruitcake!

Need to get my arse out of bed, get myself ready and all relevant shit together. Today is going to be a long one!

Morning all

Yesterday I also managed to -

Clean the toilet, sink and bathroom work tops
Put away all of the clean laundry
Hoover the living room
Sweep the stairs
Sweep the kitchen again
Clean out pets

Today I need to mop both the kitchen and bathroom. Give the bath a scrub and do all the silly day to day crap

Afternoon

Well According To the press it is a result of poor hygiene in the kitchen área, school says "we don't know if it's us or the construcción workers Building that structure right next door, and DDs told me the waste pipe from the kitchen broke in some way and leaked into the clean water system.

Either way the cholorine was way below the required levels and it, if it is Norovirus, florished. Health Dept think it's Norovirus but won't have the lab resulta back úntil Tomorrow/Tuesday.

Not sure what we're doing Today, DDs are still alseep after a few late nights so DH has gone out on his own. Only taking furniture To his office, he'll be back for lunch.

The nearby stables do a tríal run thing, pay for a couple of 30 min lessons and if you don't like it there's no commitments. Only problem is pinning down the bod I need To speak To. If I just want To ride for a bit of relación in a being at one with natura kinda way, would I still need all the gear, or could I do that in something like tracky bottoms? I can't afford To splash out right now. Obvs I'll Get a safety helmet.

Pets also need sorting here, DD2's turtle is ready for a larger tank, which we can't afford at present.

Okay, it's 11 O'clock and I need To Get my arse in gear.

Hope everyone has a good day.

Not 11am. 10 am. Doh!

DDs did their washing yesterday without promoting.

They must want something.

back to school tomorrow. They didn't find Norovirus after all their investigations.

DDs have been on packed lunch since last year and take enough drinks for the day so fingers crossed it's all resolved and they wouldn't be effected if something goes wrong again.

Not a lot of unfucking done today, laundry, shopping and cooking is about it.

Fingers crossed that is the end of it!

For riding, joggers are absolutely fine. A pair of boots are a good idea (look on eBay) and a hat of your own if you enjoy it, but most riding schools have plenty of hats to borrow and they will make sure you have one that fits.

Been pretty productive this week. But bloody he'll I'm tired! Think last week is catching up with me!

Short unfucking list for this afternoon:
Dishy
Laundry
Make beds
Put some clean laundry away

Well done everyone!!!haven't done a lot lately but today I will be

*unfucking the laundry mountain and putting away.

*unfucking the stripped beds and making them up with clean sheets and bed linen.

*Unfucking the empty bottles, aerosols and cartons from around the house and tossing them in the bin.

*I will finally remember to dust my bedroom which I frequently forget

I'd love a paír of ridíng boots, but I have fat calves, so I think I'll have To look here. Thanks for the info

yesrteday I was just too tried To do moré than wash towels and cook dinner. Didn't even have lunch, about 11 I finíshed the tuna I hadn't put in DD's snacks with a few crackers.

Today I'm not sure what time DDs come out of school. The timetable says 6 but as everything's been fucked up by the water issue we don't know if the after school sport is on. It's compulsary normaly, and free, only fucking things that is here.

Dogs really need washing Today, might Get 2 done this morning. Oops, it's gone mid day so I won't be getting dogs washed this morning. never mind.

Pumpkin dust your bedroom first, then you'll have a nice dust free place To sleep after doing all that unfucking

MrsNouveau if you are tired don't try To do a lot Today, just the bare essentials that can't wait a day or Two.

Right, I'm off To unfuck the grubby dogs.

I'm not doing anymore unfucking today! I've had a shit day and it's only 11am. Took 3yo DD to dentist - she needs a tooth out. She didn't like the taste of the unaesthetic so said they couldn't do it today. So now she needs to go back in a few weeks and have it done with gas and air. Why they didn't have the laughing gas ready when they knew she had an appointment and that this was likely I don't know. And at that time of day the buses to my village are an hour and a half apart. I needed to pick up a signed for letter, so we missed the early bus and had to wait over an hour for a bus home. It was too early for the shops to be open, so I've walked around for an hour aimlessly. I've made the new dentist appointment for when I am meant to be picking up inlaws from the airport. I could just about make it, but DD hates the car, and it seems traumatic to make her have a 4 hour drive before having a tooth pulled.

SO, I am sitting here hoping DH remembers to go to the plumbing supplies shop to buy a new U bend for the sink so I can use the fucking dishwasher tonight. I refuse to wash up by hand again, since he even forgot to bring fucking gaffer tape home yesterday, so I couldn't even McGuyver it for a day.

Parent teacher talk for 3yo nursery tonight, she's a stubborn little know it all (wonder where she gets that from), so that should be fun.

Fuck it, if I don't do the fucking washing no other bugger will, and I'll just end up with too much to hang to dry. Bollocks. And my boobs are leaking all over my favourite top, again!

Sorry you had a bad day loki hope today is better x

I did most of that unfuck list I mentioned the other day, bar polishing my bedroom -slaps own wrist-
But I did do the rest and today I actually unfucked and cleaned my fridge!!!

*rubbish thrown out
*batteries bought and put in baby items
*washing up done
*bottles made

• 2 lots of laundry done, one wet, one dry Dry the rest an put away hopefully and then shopping to unfuck.

Pizza tonight and will do more unfuckery tomorrow!

Thanks pumpkin Today was much better. Roadside assistance couldn't start my fucking heap of shit car, so they towed it. Brilliant, meant I didn't have to catch 2 busses home with 2 kids and a car seat.

DH brought duct tape home. I fucking McGuyvered the shit out of the U bend. I had taken the sink drainer apart, so I scrubbed the underside. and shined the fucking sink like a fucking flylady

Cleaned the downstairs shower (so much hair in the drain, it was rank)

Hello all.

Been a strange old week, DS had eye surgery to correct his squint on Monday, today the teachers are on strike so DD isn't at school, and I'm trying to keep the kids occupied without any dirt, risk of falling over or anything too physical. As you can imagine this is going very well with a 3 year-old!

House has gone to shit, but hopefully a quick blitz later can get it back under control somewhat.

Good luck MrsNouveau, I remember trying To keep DD1's eye isolated after surgery, fucking nightmare it was.

I've done Fuck all so far this week, other than school runs and meals. Fell down the bastard stairs Monday morning while getting ready for school run. Nothing broken luckily by I twisted my knee, before landing on it. Later I will try To clean out the dog pen, currently resting said knee after school run and shopping this morning.

Hope DD's next apptointment goes Well Loki and your car and dishwasher Get fixed pronto.

Not done a lot apart from normal daily household things. The house has gone to the dogs again and I have stopped all my decluttering stuff. Oh my and its bin day tomorrow, need to get of my arse tonight as I reckon I could fit a whole black sack of crap in it

Today I have:
Taken down half the curtains in the playroom to trim and hem them. Cut the curtains shorter. Hemmed one with hemming tape. Stared at the sewing machine, willing it to sew the curtains on its own. Left curtains on floor as baby has cried all day!

Made bacon and lentil soup. Stared at the ingredients for bread rolls, willing them to knead themselves because crying baby wouldn't be put down. Abandoned soup for dinner.

Put another layer of gaffer tape around broken drain pipe in kitchen.

Made a shopping list for IKEA for shit I need before the out-laws arrive.

Talked to the mechanic about my car- now will be abput £700 instead of £400 as it needs a gjkgvjyhfvcr part I don’t know anything about cars.

Hope his eye is better soon MrsNoveau and your knee Adora

You can fit more in your bin, Pumpkin ? Nothing is going in mine- collected fortnightly on a Friday and DH forgot last time. I have 2 kids in nappies. Tomorrow's bins will fill it, then it gets collected Friday, thank fuck.

Just put DD1 in our bed to watch TV as I cba am trapped under sleeping baby who has not properly napped today.

Hope baby let's you Get things done Today Loki

Fuck me, £700 , hope it works.

I may have damaged the sofá I'm still reclining on, or it could just be so dirty that my wet coffee cup has left a ring of clean on the white leather. I mean who the Fuck buys white leather sofás with a family that includes dogs DH ?

I shall endeavour To clean it later but recent activity, school run and feeding dogs, has driven my back To my current place of residente, ie, the sofá. I. Am. Bored.

Knee is definitely improving, I'm trying not To take any ibuprofen Today but I may cave later, depends.

I made the rolls, so soup tonight. I have hemmed one curtain. I have mainly fed the baby today. Have baby clinic appointment tomorrow. Buses can get me there an hour early or 20 minutes late. Considering catching early bus but getting off early and walking.

Morning all.

Adora - ouch! Hope your knee is better soon. As for the fucking sofa, babywipes.

Loki - Bollocks to buses, and cunting cars! Probably better to bloody walk. (or stay at home with tea and cake)

Pumpkin - I'm afraid I'm one of 'those' women who leave the bins to DH, but only because I do enough around the fucking house :o

Today is Friday, this weekend we have:

1 x Saturday morning cinema trip booked
1 x ballet exam
1 x horse competition that has been in planning for months
1 x Husband working away at an event all day Sunday

20000 x things to do first!

Not sure where to start today, will post a list a bit later.

First part of the plan is to do a mountain of washing. Lots of things needed for weekend and early next week, so need to crack on with that.

Secondly write a shopping list and go shopping I suppose so that we have food to eat.
