I've had a quick whizz round and although the place isn't as tidy as I'd like it, it's looking much better than it did first thing this morning. I'm planning on spnding the next hour working on dds costume before rushing to collect ds at mid-day.

Free Letts study books

I have done nothing. I went to wok and ended up stayin ad not doing much, then refusing my moey because I had done so little, and can't get off my backside now, so I'm hoping reporting in here will help.

I have to collect 5 children from 2 schools later, a get two to Rainbows by 4, so won't be back after school, but will go and try and do something and come back in 1/2 hour.

It's been quiet here today....

I've done no FLYing other than my quick once round this morning, which hardly counts at all.
I took ds into work with me briefly after lunch then we collected dd and went out to look for suitable sparkles for her costume
Came home and rushed supper in order to get dd to Rainbows, then we've all come home and both children are now tucked up in bed

I'm going to have a quick picking-up-an-putting-away session downstairs before I slump on the sofa for the rest of the evening!

Have a good night everyone

chinwag · 12/09/2007 20:00

Hello!!
I'm a newbie...keeping a low-ish profile.
Seems like a nice thread.

chinwag · 12/09/2007 20:26

Oops...just killed it!

Jas · 12/09/2007 20:35

Hello chinwag These threads are often quiet in the evenings, but I (or whoever is up first) will start a new one tomorrow and link from here....come and join us!

OP posts:
chinwag · 12/09/2007 20:37

Thanks Jas. I will.

What's the aim of the thread? Sorry to be thick.

Jas · 12/09/2007 20:41

Grouchy - I know we are supposed to be encouraging each other to do all that work, but I kind of hope you carried on taking it easy You sound like you need a good holiday.

shouldbe - I've pulled dd2 out of Rainbows from next week She is 7 this month and can move up to Brownies after 1/2 term but is actually showing an interest in doing a couple of afterschool clubs (didn't want to do any last year) which of course clash with Rainbows, so I'm going to let her do them from next week. I think I wll head for the slump on the sofa style evening now, too.

Jas · 12/09/2007 20:43

chinwag - It is a daily hosework thread, for those of us who don't enjoy housework. FLYlady is a very cheesy American website which helps you to break it down into managable routines, and we link to it at the beinning of the thread.

We also chat

OP posts:
chinwag · 12/09/2007 20:48

sounds good to me. Unfortunately my addiction to MN means my housework has gone to pot!!!

Neverenoughhandbags · 12/09/2007 20:53

Evening everyone!
Hi Chinwag-I joined this thread yesterday and everyone is so welcoming-thanks all!

Today started well, but then had to go out and generally faffed when I got back-where does the day go?

However-another day tomorrow so refuse to be downcast!

Thanks to everyone who has greeted me!Sorry about my name which I realise is a huge mistake-far too long!

Jas · 12/09/2007 21:01

The longer I've been here, the shorter my name has got It always got shortened to Jas anyway so when I got the chance to have it, I took it.

Shine your sink, then start again tomorrow. I will do mine while the kettle boils, and be back in a bit.
