I don't stick to the routines really. I'm gradually adapting things to something I might actually keep up in the long term.

Better night from the baby last night, and it's my birthday today, so I'm not doing Kellys mission. Might do it tomorrow though.
I will keep woring at the kids room though...

Thankyou. I may go out and treat myself!

Flamesparrow · 13/09/2006 08:14

Too many messages to catch up on.

I went to bed with an unshined sink and no bedtime routine

Happy Birthday Jas!!!

My other room is DD's bedroom, but not made it in there yet!

tamsino · 13/09/2006 08:18

Morning all.

Happy Birthday jas.

I have put a load of washing on and emptied my dishwasher. Seen todays task so will do that at some point but going to have some me time today and go swimming while DD goes to creche.

Have a good day all.

Cappuccino · 13/09/2006 08:34

hello everyone

I am still doing this but you lot leave too many darn messages to keep up with

whenever I look back there's another 100

samnbabes · 13/09/2006 08:50

Happy birthday Jas! And enjoy your swim, Tamsino. Bit of a late start here, as ds slept in til 8:30 after a rather, ahem, alert night...

But load of washing in & off to sort loo. Yum.

And dh wanted to know about hotspots last night - think he got the wrong ida... lol!

Olipop · 13/09/2006 09:09

Morning....I keep sitting on here reading messages instead of using ds nap time to fly!!!! I think it is the thought of having to get on my hands and knees and get up close and personal with the loo!!! At least it shouldn't be too bad after the swishing and swiping! Happy birthday jas!

BarefootJasnem · 13/09/2006 09:40

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou.

I am being put to the test today. I've invited some other mums from my postnatal group round this am. Last week we went to one that looked like a show home, and the mum apologised for the mess!(Don't you hate it when people do that?)
Wish me luck.

Well I've swished and swiped but not shined my sink. Have just started to tackle my under the stairs cupboard which is disgusting. I've dragged everything out and as it's so horrific I've come on MN to escape - heeeeeeeelp!!!!

boomie · 13/09/2006 09:41

P.S. Happy Birthday Jas

DontlookatmeImshy · 13/09/2006 09:44

Happy Birthday BarefootJasnem

I've done todays mission already. I didit yesterday as I got so carried away I scrubed the whole bathroom from top to bottom. The only thing left to do is hoover. Am I allowed to count the downstairs loo as 'the other room' or is that cheating.

Flamesparrow · 13/09/2006 09:48

Oooh good luck.

Can someone give me a kick. Yesterday was poorly babies r us... today babies are much better (DD back at preschool) but I am feeling rough.. but my sink wasn't shined, I have dry washing not folded or put away, and I need to do 15 mins in both rooms

A cup of chocolate and a book is seeming much more appealing though!

mummyhill · 13/09/2006 09:48

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BarefootJasnem.

Morning all.

Have done the living room. It was only a 20 min rescue. Will load pics later today. DD actually helped by putting the toys away. Althoug I realy need to do something with the corned where DH's computer sits. Mine also needs space clearing round it will tackle that when we hit the kitchen zone. Will Fly the bathroom when DD goes to school this afternoon as DS should have a nap about then.

BarefootJasnem · 13/09/2006 09:56

Flame ...KICK... Go and shine your sink, fold and put away, then you can have choc and book.

singersgirl · 13/09/2006 10:03

I can't keep up with this thread but I'm still here! Looking forward to scrubbing my toilet, but have a hair appointment and need to go to the library first.

damewashalot · 13/09/2006 10:03

I really got the cyber cold today, sore throat and all and a grumpy snotty baby but I did swish and swipe and the sinks still clean, breakfast dishes still out but the boys got to school on time

SKYTVADICT · 13/09/2006 10:21

Sorry to hear you are not well Dame and Happy Birthday Jas.

Wow - it takes ages to catch up with thread!

Still at work and not flying at all. Did leave a shiny kitchen sink today but not swished and swiped and didn't check DDs had made their beds. Was 20 mins late to work so not been a good day so far and now I'm on here!

Betta get on. Can't wait til next week when I can join back in

DontlookatmeImshy · 13/09/2006 10:22

Flame-just think about howmuch more satisfying chocolate and a book will be AFTER you've flyed and got it out of the way.

bah to the lot of you - you were meant to tell me that I'm poorly and not to worry!!!

Ignored you all anyway . Will FLY when DD is home again.

Skribble · 13/09/2006 11:36

Ok I have come over to the darkside!

I was going to try to do flylady with out the e.amils but I have signed up, I was going to steer clear of this huge thread and started a little one but have started reading this one.

Oh well I have my shoes on and my sink is clear. Scared to check my e.mails .

tamsino · 13/09/2006 12:02

Skribble. After a couple of days you'll recognise the repeat emails so just delete them as soon as you've read them. The testimonial emails are fine but if you dont have time dont worry anmd delete them as more will come.

Shiny sink and shoes on is good. After a few days of delcuttering you'll become as addicted as everyone else. welcome.

mummy2ashton · 13/09/2006 12:54

happy birthday BarefootJasnem!

skribble, you can receive the emails in a daily digest, just once a day, thats what i done, so i just get one big email, saves the clutter in my inbox.

i am mega tired this am, but i swished and swiped this morning and tidied the living room. kitchen needs a bit of a going over after last nights dinner party but i'll do that after. im gonna have a nap soon, im so knackered!

hope all the sick flybabies feel better soon
