I like the pics Shaz and Sarah, but there is no way I'll be putting one of me on here. (I do look like a slattern!)

Bathroom is clean and shiny. Floor needs doing but will have to wait. What other room are we all doing this week. I'll have to do the dds room. I took before pics a fortnight ago, cleaned it so it looked beautiful, didn't take pics, and now it looks like the before ones again

hello! can i join you? i've just signed up on MN after lurking for a few weeks on the flylady threads! i have two children and a 3 bed semi with a small garden. i have tried flying before, but never got enough motivation to carry on with it.

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 11/09/2006 13:52

Flame My dd1 just saw your pics and said your dd cute and ds is funny!

singersgirl · 11/09/2006 13:58

Haven't managed to read whole thread, but you are all FLYING! LOL. Have done the bathroom mission for today. DH has mowed the lawn again. He is now laughing at me as I type this, but he admits that the house is looking better. He has also bought into the timer thing for work and other domestic tasks (he wants to sort out our 1000 or so books and has realised he can do it in 15 min chunks).

Must go as DH working from home today and wants the computer.

asleep · 11/09/2006 13:59

my livingroom after 15 minutes of FLYing

Have cleaner every fortnight on a Thursday but does not stop the house looking a shambles most of the time! Had a go at the past couple of weeks zones but going or it properly this week (Glad it is the bathroom though as probably the tidiest room!!)

Flamesparrow · 11/09/2006 14:11

I think I might have met you before Ruby - you all look very familiar!!!

Real me is here .... I need to get DH to take a normal photo of me, the most recent (not post birth!) of me are at my wedding, and I have changed a lot since then!!!

mummy2ashton · 11/09/2006 14:11

welcome melrose! you are so lucky having a cleaner! i'd love a cleaner but would be embarrassed at her seeing the house in a mess! lol

Flamesparrow · 11/09/2006 14:12

mummy2ashton · 11/09/2006 14:13

been flying for about a month. i have made things a lot more efficient in the house. there's a huge pile of stuff ready to go to the charity shop. threw away loads and ebaying a lot too. it's the first time i took photos and it's great to see the difference. keep flicking back and forth between before and after!

melrose · 11/09/2006 14:20

mummy2ashton, I am lucky having a cleaner although often spend wed eve thinking"shit cleaner in tomorrow need o madly tidy" whichj often means shoving things in cupboards etc!! NO MORE!!

samnbabes · 11/09/2006 14:25

tortoisesdonotwearshoes · 11/09/2006 14:28

Welcome Asleep and melrose.

samnbabes @ being how you imagined!

melrose · 11/09/2006 14:56

So how do I clean the tiles (and grout!) in my shower then?

mummy2ashton · 11/09/2006 15:06

erm.... cillit bang? its magical stuff! don't leave it on too long though or it will dissolve your shower, and probably the rest of your house!
