New thread for a new zone, morning all

lets all do profiles

I have been married 6 years, I have 2 dd's, one is 6 and the other is 16 months and a dd or ds on the way!
I have always been domestically challenged and I think Flylady has the answer.
I have known about flylady for about 2 years but never really got going, I hope that doing it together will change that.
Good Luck to all on a fresh zone

Oh Tortoise I have just PMSL!!!!!

I re-read you post and the first time I thought you said you hadn't told her about FLYwooman!!!!!!!

Didn't realise you had!!!!!!!
ROTFL!!!!!!

I bet she's whizzed off home straight away to log onto the FLYone's webpage!!!!!!

Quootiepie · 15/08/2006 15:11

thats what I thought 1st time coggy!

tortoise · 15/08/2006 15:12

She probably thinks im mental

coggy · 15/08/2006 15:16

Was she edging backwards towards the door as you tried to entice her into this strange cult-ish world of ours???!!!!!

tortoise · 15/08/2006 15:19

No she didn't!
DD1 did manage to hit her on the head with a book though by accident! She probably thinks she dreampt(sp) about an online cleaning cult!

coggy · 15/08/2006 15:22

LOL!!!!!!

I'm off to put my feet up and watch some tele.....if no-one objects then.

Done my Mission for the day.
Spent 15mins (well 10 and I'll do another 5 later) in my 'Other Room Zone'.
Just neeed to put out my HotSpots and do my 5 minute room rescue and bring in my washing and I'm done!!!

mummy2ashton · 15/08/2006 15:58

i have just done my mission for today. took only 10 minutes, and that was under the watchful eye of a toddler who couldn't understand why he couldnt swing off the sink when it was covered in pink metal dissolving stuff! lol

have put out my hotspot aswell, done the weekly shop and now i am gonna go and get dinner ready for dp coming home.

ps. pmsl at your hv!!! i can't belive you told her! i was slightly afraid to tell even my dp! although he thinks this fly lady is the best thing since sliced bread now! i even got him to do 15 minutes sprucing up the living room last night! he set the timer and everything!!

Its called a finding a fact hearing.Basically because xp was cleared in criminal court of hitting ds1 they want to prove the probability that it was happening before custody case.
My statement admits i saw him do it(bad mum alert!)and i will probably be questioned in court about why i didn''t do more to stop it.
Also i am accused of failing to protect ds1 which i admit but xp told me if he had to move out then he would take the girls and i believed him.Torn both ways.

tortoise · 15/08/2006 16:47

Anyway,on a better note i have just made vegetable burgers with ds2.My 1st attempt! I don't do much home cooking!They have to go in fridge for 30 mins then can cook them.

Tortoise, surely for you to be guilty of not protecting DS, your XP would have to be guilty of hitting him?

Your doing better than me tortoise! Ive only recently finished the bathroom!

tortoise · 15/08/2006 16:51

Thanks.
Custody side of it is end October.I will know by the 1st of November if the boys will be back home full time.Fingers crossed.

tortoise · 15/08/2006 16:53

He is guilty of doing it.He got away with it in criminal court because i wasn't called as witness.Its only recently that i could admit what was happening.I don't know why i couldn't before.

Wisp · 15/08/2006 17:00

Checking in for today, Ive kind of fallen off the wagon!! Did no ironing last night despite the 2 baskets full waiting on the dining room table ! and oh I'm ashamed to say the sin of all sins;
I did not shine my sink last night or this morning!!!
I await my punishment.......

Quootiepie · 15/08/2006 17:01

Quootiepie · 15/08/2006 17:01
