[CindersNeedsHelp]

Mission
Thur Reminder
Babystep 16

Morning.

Thanks for setting us up every morning Cinders .

Will catch up this afternoon, going to take DS for his weigh in.

morning all

running behind, just got back from DS weigh in at clinic, he is 18lb4oz now.

Have done -

dressed to shoes & makeup
dishwasher empty
washing machine on
hotspot

still everything else to do, so will be back later.

Is it me, or is the link to the mission still Wednesday's? It is Thursday today, right?

Hi flowery, looks like Flylady just hasn't updated her mission page yet today. Today's mission is 'big appliances' - it's on the 'sneak peek for the week' here (scroll down till you find it)

Off to do rest of morning routine now, ds had MMR jab this morning so we had to leave early, he's napping now so I started with my 15 mins for me and now off to do the rest before lunch. I am counting 'read this thread' as the babystep for today as I am on nomail from Flylady at the moment.

thanks SA, I was wondering if it was either me being blind or my laptop having a bit of a 'moment'!

flylady is American

she's not got up yet

Do you mind that I don't seem to be doing this properly? I can't seem to find the impetus to list everything like most of you do. I am finding the thread very helpful though - a little bit of motivation to get stuff done.

Because we've just moved the house hasn't had chance to get into a state, but I wanted to put in place the routine that will keep things that way. (That's my excuse for not appearing to do much, and I'm sticking to it!)

OK, so insecure waffle over...

Good night's sleep but only because DD was totally exhausted. So today carries on where we left yesterday.

Have done most of my morning tasks now and the rest will have to wait. There is a page on FLYlady for those who work and with young children, so we can cut ourselves a bit of slack. Lots of useful tips too. flylady.net/index.asp scroll down to what kind of flybaby you are...

good grief Monkey, I thought DS was big!

Monkey - DD at 7.5 months weighs just under 18 lb!!

there were dog hairs in my fridge

T hey must just float in there when the door's open.

Good grief.

You'll all have good strong healthy immune systems, flowery!

Done my jobs.

Soon be time for dd and ds1 to come home and make a mess.

He is a big boy - measured his length as well today and he's 73cm (off the chart). I'm over 6ft and DP is 18 stone so he was always going to be big! I'm just glad (for his sake when he's older) that he's not a girl! The target is 3ft on his first birthday as that's what my grandfather was!

Purple - I think this works different ways for different people, as long as you're finding it helpful then that's good! It helps me to write everything down because I'm then shamed into finishing things.

Think I've just about caught up with myself, still got to make the bed though .

WOW! Ok, so it was only cos I wasn't feeling too good, but I was asleep by 11pm!
Downside is I was wide awake by 5 am, lol.

Mission - done.
Hot spot - hall basket - done.
Five min room rescue - bedroom (again - Had to be redone tonight as DH did a job in there and didn't get chance to tidy up before he fetched the boys).

Clothes ready for me and uniform - to do.
