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

mummy2ashton · 15/08/2006 22:45

what do we think the mission for tomorrow will be?? probably the bath or shower screen. i wonder if my cillit bang is tough enough to handle it lol

Quootiepie · 15/08/2006 22:46

my shower screen is all cloudy and white... I cant wait to get a new bathroom! Cillit bang didnt work on mine...

tortoise · 15/08/2006 22:47

Im still here as usual!

Probably be clean shower screen tomorrow.I don't have one but i have to catch up on todays mission!

mummy2ashton · 15/08/2006 22:49

todays was quite easy. clean counter tops. i dont have any counter tops in my bathroom, just the window sill which is full of aftershaves, baby lotions and potions and some smellies. so i cleaned that instead.

when i was cleaning i noticed that dp has at least twice the amount of products that i do. i don't think that can be a good thing

tortoise · 15/08/2006 22:50

I have 2 window sills of stuff! Hang on i will add pics.took them earlier!

cori · 15/08/2006 22:55

Fellow fly babies, I know part of our problem with mess is clutter, but how do you deal with a DH that is a hoarder? I got told off for throwing away something from the bathroom this morning.
Does not seem to understand that I am tired of living like this.

mummy2ashton · 15/08/2006 22:55

lol! great!

tortoise · 15/08/2006 22:56

Make sure he doesn't see you throw them away and dispose of the evidence!
If he asks for x,y or z just say ive no idea where did you last see it!

tortoise · 15/08/2006 23:05

my messy bathroom!
1st pic is fire place looking clearer!

cori · 15/08/2006 23:10

It is so refreshing to see other peoples mess.

Bathroom issue, what is the best way to store bath toys.?

tortoise · 15/08/2006 23:13

I do have a basket for them but its kind of overflowing! And i hate the grey shelf thing but don't know what else to put towels and tea towels and cleaning clothes in!
Its really messy isn't it? Not normally quite that bad.

tortoise · 15/08/2006 23:14

cloths not clothes!

tortoise · 15/08/2006 23:19

Off to bed now.Probably another hour before i get to sleep!!
I will be around after 12 tomorrow.
Night FLYers.xxxx

mummy2ashton · 15/08/2006 23:32

sorry i got sidetracked by my teething toddler. you have about as many bath toys as me. but since my ds HATES the bath and chucks his bath toys if i give them to him, i think i might chuck them out!

will do it later, i promise (i may need a drink first lol)

AmandaP · 16/08/2006 09:10

Morning all. I didn't get the chance to spend 15 mins sorting out clutter in bathroom yesterday, but I did spend about 5 mins throwing a whole load of stuff out which felt good.

Will be back later - the sink is shiny, and actually so is the sun outside (well for a bit anyway)

'talk' to you later!

shazronnie · 16/08/2006 09:20

good morning!
kelly's mission today
I've just done it and it was grim!!

Now i have to plan next weeks menu and clean the fridge because that is what we do on wednesday!

MommyUpNorth · 16/08/2006 09:54

of that sunshine! We've got a miserable rainy day here, but I guess that's all the more reason to stay inside and get on with things.

I've been copying the emails & mission in one go from the flylady site into a word file and then deleting the things as I go along... lovely to see all the chores disappearing!
