Ive just had to deal with a huge spider so i am not smiling!!

coggy · 12/08/2006 22:11

Don't think I would be smiling either if I was in the loft being faced with spiders!!!

Roll on next week......we obviously need the practise!!!!!!

There's a few to start with!!

tortoise · 12/08/2006 22:16

I think we will keep at it.
Yes new thread for the start of a new zone.
Bathroom and one other room next week.I have upstairs loo/sink as well as bathroom downstairs!!!

tortoise · 13/08/2006 09:06

No crisis cleaning here! Baby steps all the way(unless someone is coming round!)
Think the crisis clean will come when all zones are de-cluttered.

Wisp · 13/08/2006 09:09

Just checking in quickly, I'm on day 3 of babysteps,So get dressed, shine sink, and read flylady site for 2 minutes.
Are we meant to be doing the other jobs she emails us with or is that when we have finished 30 days of baby steps?
I'm just kind of keeping on top of the housework even though I really need to do a room declutter- well one in every room really!
Hope everyone is going well !

tortoise · 13/08/2006 09:13

I think you do as you are able to do.I like the days task it gives me a definate aim for the day.Im still de-cluttering as well as doing baby steps.Although not done yet this morning! I am dressed but in t-shirt and tracksuit trousers!(lazy sunday feeling)Sinks still clean,my hairs a mess and dishwasher not empty yet.
DC are dressed and we are all fed.
I think its going well and hope we can all keep it up.

mummy2ashton · 13/08/2006 09:18

shazronnie · 13/08/2006 09:59

we renew our soul (?) on Sundays.

I have a hangover.

Trying to smile, and I have my shoes on even though i feel like lying around.

I found a notebook and wrote my morning and bed routine in it (babystep day 8). Seems a bit stupid, but I did not believe in the power of shoes!

I agree new thread on monday; first one up will have to start it!

tortoise · 13/08/2006 10:04

Ive managed to empty the dish washer and wipe sink and worktops down.
Ive got a runny nose and sneezes.Hope i havn't got a cold coming.
Better do my hair.

shazronnie · 13/08/2006 10:07

yes, and fix your face!

shazronnie · 13/08/2006 10:09

just remembered I haven't put my laundry on yet; see you later!

Quootiepie · 13/08/2006 10:17

Morning! I went out last night Saw some old school friends (my word they've changed!) and my friends dad kept topping up my wine! DS was not going to stay tucked up in bed though so Ive dragged myself to the computer. DH should be home at 2 so gonna give kitchen one last good clean before bathroom starts tomorrow! My bathroom is horrid though - the last owners must have been colour blind! So dont know how it will clean up. I guess id better find an evenning mass to go to tonight, eh?
