Has she emailed you all to go to bed?????

Oh well.....no-one to play with............'spose I'd better go too!!!!!

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 09/09/2006 22:08

Someone tell me firmly to load the damn dishwasher please?

coggy · 09/09/2006 22:09

Whoohoo...you are still up!!!!

Go load that dishwasher!!!!

shazronnieWEARINGSHOES · 09/09/2006 22:09

I'm still here; going to bed when I've finished my wine

coggy · 09/09/2006 22:10

Just finished my couple of glasses!
Sink shining has slipped a bit I have to confess.

Will re-bleach etc tomorrow.

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 09/09/2006 22:11

I said firmly!!
im also glued to Robbie on skyone!

shazronnieWEARINGSHOES · 09/09/2006 22:11

You wouldn't want to be dazzled first thing in the morning after one too many would you?

coggy · 09/09/2006 22:13

Exactly!!!!

Tortoise.........GO AND DO YOUR DISHWASHER!!!!!

You've NO idea how difficult that was after two large glasses of wine!!!!!

shazronnieWEARINGSHOES · 09/09/2006 22:18

Tortoise; if you don't load your dishwasher now it won't be ready for emptying in the morning and that will disrupt your morning routine.

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 09/09/2006 22:31

Its done and switched on!
im going to retire into my shell now with a large pile of tissue.
Would of been awful to get up in the morning to face all that mess.Sink not shined and work top has crumbs and bits on but least its clear!

coggy · 09/09/2006 22:33

Good effort...............now sleep and dream of shiney flying pink things!!!!!

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 09/09/2006 22:34

I can think of better things to dream of !

coggy · 09/09/2006 22:35

LOL!!!

I am very sure you can!!!
Let's leave it at that eh??!!!!

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 09/09/2006 22:36

!!
Just realised i will have to stay up a bit longer because im recording Robbie for an MNer and it doesn't finish until 11.15!

coggy · 09/09/2006 22:39

I am going to abandon you once more and go to bed!

A big sink-shining effort to make in the morning!!

(Plus lots of wine has made it almost impossible to keep my eyes open and see the screen!!!!!)

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 09/09/2006 22:40

Night.xx
See you in the morning!

calebsmummy · 10/09/2006 08:10

Dome, the playroom looks fab! Are the children allowed in there now? It's inspired me to get ours done today now. My Dh seems to like our shiny kitchen too and actually makes an effort to keep it tidy...just gotta train him to do the same for the rest of the house now!

Not sure how much flying will be done here today as we were at my brothers 30th party until late last night. Thought I'd get a lie in this morning considering the boys didn't go to sleep until 11 (and that was in the car, didn't actually get to bed til 12!!!) but no, DS3 up and bouncy at 6 Ds2 has just emerged and DS1 and DH still snoring

WILL do the playroom and will swish and swipe etc though.

squatchette · 10/09/2006 08:16

Hia all,just surfaced well actually 2 hrs ago but only just woke up properly as dd 2 has just got up,nothing like cbeebies to wake you up eh!
Well had a pretty busy few days what with the renovations going on and all.Builders off for weekend thank god so water on and can stay in pjs till 9am if i so wish. Had a productive day yesterday took girls for new shoes and tights ready for the cold weather coming and then it gets all hot again.
Went food shopping and actualy had somewhere to put it now builders have fitted first few cupboards and new sink .Shined it as best i could despite plastic wrapping still on it (don't want it 2 get ruined till they've finished drilling etc).
I also cleaned out the back bedroom A.K.A The Junk room.Just one more room to declutter so that the central heating guys can come and draw up their plans before installing it as soon as kitchen is finished.Sent them away with lame excuse last week as was 2 embarassed to let them see state of place .
I even cleaned out and tidied the girls play room doubt it will stay that way for long! Totaly identified with Susis ,the kids seem to create mess faster than i can clean it up.DD 3.5 just surfaced so better go make her breki and do tube feed .bye 4 now

DH will be put teaching this morning. So I will do a bit of housework etc whilst he is out. Mount washmore is no more . I only have 1 load of washing to go through my machine. I need to finish putting it all away and then I can on to the more serious job of finishing the decluttering. The lower floor is not perfect but it is a hell of a lot better than it used to be, I can invite people in with out panicing about what they are going to think of me. The bathroom is allways presentable these days which in it's self is a miracle. Now I just need to get the bedrooms under control and with the help of flylady and support of my virtual life friends I may actually have a home instead of a dump.

ginqueen · 10/09/2006 09:00

Hi flybabies. Have been watching this thread for a few days. What a great community. Have been unable to "come out" about flylady in public for fear of socaial ostrasization. Have only been flying for a few days but am totaly addicted. Is this healthy? Just wanted to find out whether you guys have made your control journals and if so what you used. A4 vs filofax, etc. Have been longing for a laminater and this is the perfect excuse!

mummyhill · 10/09/2006 09:07

Cola chicken is delicious.

I have managed to feed the kids.

I made my bed for the first time in ermm........................................ this morning.

Load a day going through as we speak. Dishwasher on as I forgot to do it lastnight. Have swished and swiped and sink is shiny. Now I need to think of something good to do this afternoon with the kids as they spent the aftrenoon with grandparents yesterday.

Sunday tends to be family fun time as DH and I both work on Saturdays.

domestickler · 10/09/2006 09:12

Morning FLYers

Leg feeling a bit better today so dont think any serious damage done.

Ive run out of dishwasher tablets so havent been able to do that yet grrr

But have done a load and hung it out, swished and swiped and its all relatively tidy

SKYTVADICT · 10/09/2006 10:35

Morning all

Feeling a bit better today but have my weekly home blessing and pile of ironing to do as I am at work all week.

I'm really tired at nights (forgot how tired you get in first 12 weeks!) so will try and do it today
