Oh forgot to say live in Lincolnshire

JessaJam · 15/09/2006 11:59

I thought we did stats on the other thread the othe day... oh well, whatever!

I am jessajam, I am 28 and I live in Plymouth with DH who is nearly 29 and ds who is 1.

I maintain a healthy disrespect for the authority of FLYlady at the same time as gleefully (??!!) hot-spotting, doing zone missions and shining my sink!

asleep · 15/09/2006 12:45

hi, i'm asleep. i wish i was at the moment, as been up half the night with DS.

i'm 28, have a DP of the same age. DD is 5 and DS is nearly 3.5 months. i live in the east midlands.

i have tried FLYing a few times in the past but never got properly motivated. i don't wear shoes indoors, just flipflops. my sink is shiny and my house ready for unexpected visitors!

peegeeweegeewoo · 15/09/2006 13:15

hi, I am peegeeweegeewoo
I am 35, dh is 37, we have ds 7.1 and dd 3.9.
Would love a baby but dh says no...

Am not yet a flylady, but the house needs it...

We live near Woking in Surrey

deegward · 15/09/2006 13:22

Ok I seem to be the grandmother of FLYing....

40 this year, two dss - 6 & 3, married to Mark who work long hours, and always comes in just after a bowl or something has been spilt!!

Been FLYing for just over a week, not much clutter in house but like the routines. Shiny sink, swish and swipe etc.#

Live jsut outside Watford

samnbabes · 15/09/2006 13:38

Blimey, there are loads of us - no wonder I can't keep up...

I'm samnbabes ( and in need of a more interesting name...), 34, dh 34, ds 2 1/2 (just come back from his first nursery settling in day...) and dd 6 months.

I'm having a disheartened fly week this week, but sink still shiny, and mn just keeping me going.

No shoes...

boomie · 15/09/2006 13:39

Hi I'm boomie - 33, DH 36, DDs 5 & 2 . Only been Flying for about a week but I am now a believer.

Olipop · 15/09/2006 19:57

Hello - I'm Olipop..
Me - 29
DH - 33 (or is it 32...can never remember!)
DS - 7 months
On maternity leave and live in Twickenham.
Sink shining has become an obsessive habit and I kneel at the feet of Anthea Turner!!!!
However, am currently looking at the living room window remembering DS was standing at it dribbling and using his fingers to draw so not quite up to Anthea standards !

sorkycake · 15/09/2006 20:04

Cool!

Bucketsofdinosaurs · 17/09/2006 19:12

OK I give in, have just signed up this minute.
I'm Liv, 30 from Southampton with DH, DD 3 and DS 19m.
I am good at starting things and not finishing them and will go out of my way to avoid cleaning and tidying. Am surprisingly organised about odd random things (eg ziploc'd jigsaws) if it gives me an excuse to avoid other housework.

sorkycake · 17/09/2006 21:27

Hurray!
BoD is on board!!

mummyhill · 18/09/2006 18:05

I likes watching Bod as a child or am I just showing my age now?

squatchette · 19/09/2006 08:45

hi i'm squatchette 27 from Preston in Lancashire ihave 2 dds aged 2+3.5 .Eldest has a tracheostomy ,tube fed and a few other little probs but shes bright as a button and very beautiful.Having our house renovated at moment so parts are flying and others pure chaos.

Bucketsofdinosaurs · 19/09/2006 09:01

Yeah shoes do not energise me and I have a big tub in the hall to keep everyone's shoes in so I never lose mine.
See, I can't handle authority, Day3 of the Flylady and I'm squirming for shortcuts

Bucketsofdinosaurs · 19/09/2006 09:04

BTW Have I set it up wrong? I opted for the digest thing, how do I just get the reminders without getting all the other posts on the yahoo group? (Does anyone else find Yahoo groups really hard work?)

cori · 19/09/2006 12:44

Cori am 36 live in London. Have two DS 4 year and DS 2 4 months.
DH is 41 and is a hoarder. So have difficulty convinicing him to through things out. To be honest I need the routines fly lady sets, but DH needs to learn how to deal with his clutter more than me.

crazydazy · 19/09/2006 20:57

Hi I am crazydazy am 34 and live in Leeds, just joined Flylady yesterday and had a really good day of cleaning today, how is gleaming and I feel a lot better.

I like cleaning my house but I really like the idea of having a kind of system going.

crazydazy · 19/09/2006 20:57
