shouldbedoingthehousework · 08/03/2007 07:51

Good morning all

Having a bit of a bad run of things atm and don't seem to doing well on the FLY front - this is largely down to FIL being here creating mess at an alarming rate while doing some decorating for us!

Kids are both still poorly Seems to have been one after another for the past 3-4 weeks! I was planning to send dd back to school today but she's still asleep despite being in bed by 6.30pm last night And ds was fine yesterday but woke in the night with a v high temp and is now lying in my bed looking very sorry for himself I'm thinking we may need to do a doctors trip today...

Want to get some bits done today but have no idea where to start....laundry I think - it's spilling out of the basket! And maybe some ironing in front of cr*p daytime telly if the kids are ill in bed...

My sink is shined every eve before bed so no worries with todays mission [smug emotion]

tort Good luck today x
Luda you are sooo like me in many ways - I look at the Martha website from time to time and drool over the perfectness - if only...

MadameSleepsLessAndLess · 08/03/2007 07:59

Morning shouldbeShineySink Hope dc's are better soon. Big {{{hugs}}} hope your fil is going soon? Don't be too hard on yourself, we can fly all of the time. LoveEHM.x.

shouldbedoingthehousework · 08/03/2007 08:02

Thanks EHM

Dd awake now and saying she wants to go to school - her temp is down again so I may send her - they can always ring if she feels rough at school. We'll be late now though cos we're no-where close to being ready and school starts in 30mins!

MadameSleepsLessAndLess · 08/03/2007 08:02

shouldbe I day dream too,that I'll win the lottery one day & employ vast amount of staff to do my flying for me. I can then be fed grapes all day long or what ever takes my fancy. Sadly I then wake up covered in drool from both me & Ellie.

shouldbedoingthehousework · 08/03/2007 08:07

lol EHM I sooo know that feeling!

(can't seem to register you as anything other than EHM in my mind!)

MadameSleepsLessAndLess · 08/03/2007 08:10

I me neither I still sign of EHM, will revert back once I know we've nailed the BW routine.don't want to tempt fate....

laloop · 08/03/2007 08:51

Morning everyone

Thanks for mission, jelley EHM glad you're getting a bit more sleep
stacey enjoy your day out
glitterfairy swim/bike ride sounds lovely, will have to fit some exercise in this morning here too
shouldbe sorry to hear the lo's are still sick, really hope they're better soon (we had a few weeks like this before Christmas when all 3 of mine got sick one after each other, very exhausting)

I've got a heap of cleaning to do here today as well, want to give kitchen a really good clean so will concentrate on there, and then give rest of downstairs a quick tidyup and vacuum. Going to leave upstairs until the weekend.

Have a great day everyone

JustIvor · 08/03/2007 09:34

Hello to all. I've not been on the FLY threads for a few days (since last week, perhaps) as I've had lots on. Anyway, my list for today:-

Done:-
~ fill bird feeder
~ sort out recycling
~ empty kitchen compost caddy and wash out
~ do a quick tidy up of understairs kitchen cupboard
~ ring and leave message for PC to say the speeding is still going on. I saw one go through the village today when a friend's son was about to cross the road with his really big, bulky and heavy musical instrument. Took the reg down and will report it when the PC gets back to me. A few seconds later and it could have been a very nasty accident.
~ put a load of washing on
~ fill and put on d/w

To do:-
~ Shower and dress
~ Feed neighbour's pets
~ Go to town and do shopping after making a list and remembering all that I need to do
~ More washing
~ Finish cleaning the kitchen
~ Walk the dog
~ Ring the docs for an appointment

See you all later. It's good to see you, btw. I hope that all poorly children get better soon.

Oh, and I wanted to say that we had a good clear out and moved the furniture around in dd's room last weekend and she loved it. And I did some tidying in my room and it looks a good bit tidier. I'm glad to see an improvement in areas of the house. It proves that it is working, this FLY thread lark!

shouldbedoingthehousework · 08/03/2007 09:38

Hi Ivor - good to see you too

Please make me get on...

laloop · 08/03/2007 09:39
