Hi tinshoes...I was getting worried...I read the other threads this morning...bit unfair imo!
(I am really pleased to have found you all and FLYing!!it makes my day )

Will do the mission..I thought about putting some hooks inside the cupboard door at child height so they can hang everything up!!

Dior...I'm usually ludaloo...I got your recipe from someone else who suggested I give it a go.

Hello all. Lots to do today as I've been in working extra twice this week so haven't been home as much. Dsis and family are coming to stay tomorrow so need to get the spare room ready. I'm going to start with the kitchen as it's the most used room in the house. I've just looked at the Friday fly using the link on this thread. I do need to sort out the hall table, it's piled high! See you later.

I have even passed it on to my neighbour...and now we refer to it as Dior sauce!! (although I don't think she really gets why I called it that but never mind!!)

I saw the thread last night aswell.... well done Quootie for standing up for us!!!

Was wondering where everybody was this morning, wondered if the thread last night had scared us off...

Didn't want to start the thread this morning as am useless with links, didn't want to make a pigs ear of it...

Sorry you are rough JARM....
Things big rough here too, hubby working tomorrow when we should be going to bonfire with friends, so kids upset about that, me cross with him, ended up with him worrying about money (hence working weekends) and me all weepy....
Aaaargggghhhh, never mind, my worries are soooooo minor compared to what some people are going through...

Still feel rough, feel tired, achy, headachy and a sore throat.
Just come back from dd's swimming lesson, don't think will do much flying today...

Have not even looked at the link yet, so no idea what I am meant to be doing....

Not that it really matters, the whole house is in need of a swish/swipe/sweep and tidy...

sigh...

QuootiePieBANGERSandMash · 03/11/2006 11:19

Morning! Couldnt find the thread, though everyone had quit! The TV was finally replaced today and guess what? Broken. DH started swearing on the phone and the manager was swearing at him Im sooooo sick of this TV lark! DH now has the grumps, so, ill be FLYing alone today...

BudaBeast · 03/11/2006 11:23

Hi all

Did nothing yesterday. Well went shopping with some friend to a Xmas decorations wholesalers - like I needed more decorations! Then felt sick when came home so did nothing all day.

Washing even still in machine from yesterday morning.

I have to admit that I have a cleaner and she was here yesterday so house clean if untidy! I am using the Flying concept to get me decluttering/tidying. So - hallway - good place to do for me as is a mess and I need to sort out as weather has gotten SO cold here last few days. Even had some snow this morning!!! Need to get all the snow jackets and trsrs and boots out and put away the lighter stuff.

So - back in 20 mins!

pippah · 03/11/2006 11:25

Hi all! waves

Am feeling seriously lacking in motivation today. DH off work sick. Have just got back from taking DS (19 months) to a toddler music class. I'm beginning to regret signing up for it....I swear that the other mums all sedate their kids before they go - how else can mine be the only one who doesn't sit nicely on my knee waiting to be told what to do?!! I'm 37 weeks PG now and in no mood to be trying to peel him off the walls so we can sit down and play a s*dding tambourine!!!

OK, rant over! This mission should be ok as our downstairs is all open plan so I kinda sorted out the entrance area earlier in the week. But, I have just noticed that the only shoes left there are mine!!! I have to admit it, it's ME who creates the mess in this house

pippah · 03/11/2006 11:28

Budabeast - don't feel bad for having a cleaner! We have had one before and will again when we can afford it. I do think it is one of the good things about FLYing that you can adapt it to suit your needs and use it to keep tidy/ decluttered/ more organised/ eat less takeaways! Yay cleaners!!

Hi everyone. I am HN`s mum. I am not sure how to do this so I hope it works ok.

She was taken into hospital last night as she had a job to breath and a really bad pain in her head.

I have phoned the hospital this am and she is fine now. They don't know what it was or why she went down hill so fast. They are thinking it might be the stress that she is under at the moment. They have done some tests etc. She is hoping to come home later today. She hates hospitals and she wants to be home with her children.

I hope this works now.
