I have got to go into town though this afternoon...my cupboards are bare! What time were you going to be in town this afternoon? (if you get this before you go out)
I have no idea where the food market is going to be by the way...but I'd love to find out!

Hi to everyone...hope everyone is well....

Evening
Dc bathed and ready for bed now. Roast dinner was very yummy. Everything roasted.

DSs school clothes ready for tomorrow along with bags. Lunch boxes ready apart from sarnies and I will do them in the morning.

DW working. I forgot I had washing outside. I went and got it in at 4:30 and it was really cold out. I wished I put on hat,scarf and gloves, it was that cold.

Looking very much like Christmas here now

ISawTortoiseKissingSantaClaus · 19/11/2006 19:21

Glad you enjoyed your tea HN.
Your sounding very organised.

Grrr DD's out of bed again.Its the latest thing with those 2.DD1 gets up and puts the light on and they both start playing!

dreamteamgirl · 19/11/2006 20:03

Good evening everyone

Hope to get this weeks flying better (ie do the right flippin zones from the start LOL)

What ARE next weeks zones anyway does anyone know?

Bathroom didnt get done very well last week, so need to do better this week. Have really blasted some hotspots, and sorted DS' bedroom and taken all his grown out of toys over to the new neighbours DD

Still need to sort a storage solution for his room for toys. I am considering one of those plastic stacking style units from Argos, but they look a little tacky... Less tacky than toys all over the floor mind

ISawTortoiseKissingSantaClaus · 19/11/2006 20:08

Hi dreamteamgirl.
Zone is Master Bedroom.
Mine isn't too bad at the moment so won't be much for me to do in there!

dreamteamgirl · 19/11/2006 20:22

Hi Tortoise and thanks!

Woo hoo, Master Bedroom, will enjoy that one

Mine is not too bad clutter wise as had fitted cupboards put in about 6 weeks ago and did that then so still have empty space in there thanks to all the additional cupboards. Do need to sort and get things on right shelves etc tho as is all just 'in there' at present, and en suite is definately a bit grubby

All these festive names are great. How do I change mine do you know?

ISawTortoiseKissingSantaClaus · 19/11/2006 20:48

You need to click on your registration in the yellowy colour box at the top of the page. Then sign in and change it in there.
HTH /Makes sense!

dreamingofawhitexmasteamgirl · 19/11/2006 21:09

Made perfect sense, thank you Tortoise

HazelnutsRoastingOnAnOpenFire · 19/11/2006 21:12

Hiya dreamteamgirl.

Hello again tortoise
I am not usually this organized. I cleaned the kitchen and bathroom floors as they were a bit dirty. DSs would have dirty feet before they even got to school walking arounds my floors.
I have just had a hot hot bath and looking red now hehe.

Have you got anymore decs up tort?

IvortheEngine · 19/11/2006 21:13

Just a quickie.

I've sorted a big bin bag full of old school shoes etc so that job is done. The hall table and the shoe rack looks better without old shoes dumped there. Oh, and a carrier bag went out from the spare bedroom, too. I do feel that I'm getting somewhere. I did it without needing to be nagged too.

The dim prob one is nice and easy, isn't it? Dim parcio, likewise.

Well, I'd best crack on. I have to iron things for the 4 of us for work and school tomorrow. I know today should be a day of rest but that's going to have to wait until I get the house straight. Still...I am getting there I think.

HazelnutsRoastingOnAnOpenFire · 19/11/2006 21:43

Well done Ivor. Thats a lot of shoes

How many bin bags of shoes do you have left? lol

dreamteamgirl · 19/11/2006 22:11

Thanks Hazelnut, looking forwrd to this weeks FLYing, wil be nice to have some company doing it

HazelnutsRoastingOnAnOpenFire · 19/11/2006 22:21

I love these threads on FLYing dreamteamgirl
They help me and also remind me that other jobs need doing. The master bedroom is ok here. (My room) but DD`s room needs doing. Boxes from the loft are in there at mo. and I need to sort her clothes out too. There are loads now that are to small. A shame as I love some of the clothes she has been wearing

Off to bed now to finish watching "Lost"

See you all tomorrow. NN xxxxxx

mummy2ashton · 19/11/2006 23:07

hiya! just had a quick squiz through this thread and thought i'd say hi. i've not been on here in quite a while, and my flying has not been that good lately either (although i do do everything in 15 minute incriments still lol) but its nearly christmas, and i want a nice clean house for christmas and beyond so i will be changing back into a full time fly lady again from tomorrow. hope its ok to just jump right into the posts again!

Quootiepie · 19/11/2006 23:11

I cant read all these posts again! Im gonna get back to FLYing tomorrow (home blessing again!) DH and I are going to spend a day in the bedroom... sorting out our wardrobes. Im going to charity shop all the "oh, ill keep that for when I lose weight" clothes... they have been redundent for about 3 years, so they can go When im slim again, ill buy new ones Too tired and achy to do anything this evening in terms of before bed routine...

ISawTortoiseKissingSantaClaus · 19/11/2006 23:11

Hi M2A. I was wondering where you had got to.
Yeah jump right back in.Not that many of us seem to be keeping it up at the moment!

ISawTortoiseKissingSantaClaus · 19/11/2006 23:13

Q a whole day in the bedroom? lol!!!
Why not put the clothes on Ebay? You can make a fund for buying new smaller clothes!

Quootiepie · 19/11/2006 23:15

might do.... theres a ton if I go to mums garage aswell...

Quootiepie · 19/11/2006 23:16

filthy mind!! Was ebay doing a free listings day thingy?

ISawTortoiseKissingSantaClaus · 19/11/2006 23:18

There was a 10p listing but you missed it!
