I was hoping the one in Yeovil would deliver this far! But nooooo such luck.

tortoise · 21/09/2006 20:27

we have a chippy,chinese,indian and a kebab place! Its only a small town!

hazelnuts · 21/09/2006 20:34

Just a chippy that does all sorts of things. More than a normaly chiipy would do.

We have changed this thread from Knickers to Food

SusiS · 21/09/2006 21:11

guess i am right then - just finished our pizza

haven't sorted the knicker drawer just yet - but i am certain nothing exciting in there!

kitchen still looks nice, i've put kids clothes out and will do mine later; toys are all put away; and i even put the recycling out (i normally hate that job); washing is still on the line and another one is still in the washing machine - not sure if i am going to start the dryer and risk waking the kids ... hmmmm

SusiS · 21/09/2006 21:12

hmm where did you see that 'clean-your-freezer' mission???????

Quootiepie · 21/09/2006 21:13

Dh just tidied up abit im just drinking vodka Freezer thing was on a FLYspot mission email

tortoise · 21/09/2006 21:14

I put the recycling out just now in the dark!I normally leave it until the mornin then miss them but we have new food bins and i don't want that hanging around another week!

Hope its not windy where you are or your washing may blow away.

SusiS · 21/09/2006 21:21

is it windy???? - oh well, maybe my neighbour enjoyes some of my undies

i get the mails all in one bulk; and i think only the following day - so it might be in the next one then ... gives me another day to prepare myself

tortoise · 21/09/2006 21:23

Depends where you are!! Somerset it quite windy!

SusiS · 21/09/2006 21:25

oooooookkkk - it's pouring down
guess my washing will be double clean in the morning!!!

tortoise · 21/09/2006 21:41

Oh no!
I didn't even get as far as hanging mine out and its been hot today.usless me!!!

IvortheEngine · 21/09/2006 21:46

It's just windy here so far - Mid Wales. I've sorted the outside a bit, though. I've brought the washing in, done the washing line so that it won't whirl around, put the recycling and wheely bin and hosepipe in the garage and I'm going to close the conservatory windows before I forget.

SKYTVADICT - congratulations on your pregnancy and commiserations on the morning sickness. Fwiw, I just dip in when I can as I work 4 days a week. I haven't even joined Flylady properly as I thought I'd done it but no e-mails have come through so I can't have done it properly. I just use the enthusiasm on the thread to do something I need to i.e. this week I finally got around to ringing SIL to ask if she'd e-bay stuff for me and I'd been meaning to do that for months. My idea of shiny sick is to do the hand washing up, so I seem to just pick what I want and leave the rest. I am getting more done as a result of this thread, so I'm happy! Look after yourself during this pregnancy and please come back when you feel you want to. I understand that the number of posts feels daunting, but just butt in whereever you like - we won't mind! Don't feel you have to read the whole thread.

In typical'I'm not listening to a word FL sends me" mode, I have cleaned my carpets today.
A word of advice to those who are pg atm, 'pay someone to do it' as I'm knackered and hurty. Still my living room is lovely
I have nothing but matching sets, if I had to throw/lose an item, I wouldn't wear the other bit.
But I'm a hand washer as well, bit finickity about undies.

Skribble · 21/09/2006 22:40

Hand washing undies... No way. Sorky you really are an anthea .

Did I miss her on TV tonight? Is it repeated anytime?

Anybody else started a yahoo calender, I have all my stuff on it and fly lady has infiltrated it with all her reminders but it means I can look ahead rather than waiting until I get sent them at the wrong time.

tortoise · 21/09/2006 22:42

No hand washed undies here! All my bras are machine washable!

Yahoo calender sounds good,Might look into that!

Skribble · 21/09/2006 22:48

Calender will send reminders to e.mail or yahoo instant messenger.

Quootiepie · 21/09/2006 22:54
