Morning

I did the mission on Tuesday, but as I am just off for a bath, I'll swish round afterwards.

I haven't even thought of a list yet, I need to de-fuzz my head first (bit too much wine last night!)

See you all in a bit xx

My house is cleaner than it has been for years and i'm not fully doing the fly thing as with a new baby it's a bit difficult. What I need to do now is do some more decluttering!

staceym11 · 15/02/2007 09:35

morning ludaloo!

didnt manage to get a lot done after my initial bout yesterday, went to bed at half 8 poor dh alone on valentines evening!

well this morning im doing well but honestly cant be bothered to list! lol

still gotta do:

sort washing from yesterday
put washing thats on in tumble
sort that load
wash bath

and thats about it today really, seem to be quite on top of it all! ahhhh rather good as im out today!

hope everyone is ok today! and kids aren't driving you all nuts yet!

Jelley · 15/02/2007 09:35

Well done Lucy.

The decluttering works if you just set your timer and do a short burst in one little area, and gradually move around the room.

Really should get started....
Kick me if you see me on here before midday.

staceym11 · 15/02/2007 09:36

Hi all.
Looks like lots of busy lists.
Took DD1 to pre-school this morning then popped into town with DD2. Got home and had 45mins before picking DD1 up so fixed DS1's puncture and sat down with DD2 for a bit!!

Picked DD1 up then walked them to XP2 for contact. Popped into town on the way home as forgot carrots!
I now have 2hrs left before they come home.

Food wise i thought i was doing ok until i added up WW points! Too many wasted on butter.
Have a few extra points for all the walking though!

Going to MN for a bit and watch Neighbours then will get on with some FLYing!

yaddayah · 15/02/2007 13:38

Hi Everyone .. would you mind a newbie joining you ?

I've used the fly lady system (sort of) for a couple of months..house was brilliant, then got flu, broke my toe and within 3 weeks the house has turned into a toys'r'us/pit of filth especially with 2 kids off school and nursery, i can't currently wear shoes (but from lurking have noticed not many of you do either !)my sink isn't yet shined (i've got a dishwasher so never really got that concept, but i've got a spectacularly dirty house, and a spare 15 or so mins (if i can get ds and dd to play nicely

DD's are home now. DD1 throwing a strop already cos Daddy gave her chocolates to bring home and i won't let her eat any! Why send them home with them?! (And going by the choc around her mouth she has had some at his)
