FLY Babystepping - Thursday - everyone welcome

[TheMadHouse]

Morning all

We should have shined our sink last night and be dressed at the PC this morning. If not, please can we do this first

babystep 3 We are keeping our sink shining all day - if possible and then also read someting on the fly website

write things down FLylady does this on postits, but I use a pad. Do it what ever way is best for you.

So nice and easy start and the beauty of fly is you can just step in at anytime. It may seem as though the babysteps are a bit ppointless, but they are there to develop a routine and soon you will be doing all this stuff automatically.

I'm here
I'm trying to wash up so I can shine my sink
start chilli on the slow cooker and make piece for dh ad lunch for dd1

all the kids have woken up so arrrrrgh

oh my god
I have been in my drunk name for more than a week
oh shit I hoipe noone thinks I have hit the bottle

At least when I am at work my sink stays shiny all day!!

bugger, posted on old thread. Morning all

Thanks for the thread TMH, I am on day 24, but I have been attempting to FLY for a lot more than 24 days IYSWIM , might just start from the begining again with this thread.

Really want to get the house straight for christmas feel very overwhelmed with it all.

Trinity had you not noticed all week?

How drunk were you?

May I join in? I have done this before but it's gone by the wayside.

My sink is shiny and I am dressed, although my shoes are not on.

roffle at trinity You did say on the other thread early this morning that you were getting a drink, coffee was it

Right, am dressed, dc are at school, am just having breakfast (can't eat early in the morning) and then I will do the breakfast dishes and shine the sink.
And make a phonecall I have been putting off, and put a load of washing on. And then head off to work for a few hours.

Morning all.

Right, is everyone dressed? If not go do it as it will be midday soon.

I've been out all morning but plan to go shine my sink in a minute when I've eaten lunch.

Trinity - we know each other but under a diff name.

Morning/Afternoon All

Only late on MN because I have been busy busy busy this morning..

My sink is shiny and bed made and I am dressed. Children are dressed and fed, ds at nursery and dd back down for a nap. Shopping list done. Bathroom is also clean ( that's an extra shiny sink .... I know it's baby steps , but I really had to write my list and clean my bathroom...

Okay off to win on ebay....

Happy flying

I am back from shopping and stuff - did everyone manage the shinny sink and the getting dress?

No shiny sink - got held up this morning with important (ish) phonecalls adn then had to rush to work. Am back now, have just had lunch, so will do dishes and finally get that sink shiny.

Not doing much else today, have a killer headache and feel grim.

At least you managed to get dressed Hope you feel better soon

TMH babysteps thread fab idea, was on one when I started FLYing last year was really supportive. Hopefully going back to babysteps will get me back on track.
Trinity and Flowery weren't you on the babysteps thread with me?
DD had hospital at 9am today followed by toddlers, sink therefore got shined after lunch.
I'm off for inspiration from FLYlady and to wake ds up from his nap.
BBL

Oooh I know madhouse - I was invigilating a Spanish mock GCSE at the local secondary school this morning, may have got into a bit of trouble had I not gotten dressed frist

Anyroad, sink is shiny, dh home early so he is going to school to collect the small people, so will get a load of washing done today too (hey, am on a roll

Hippo I am not sure some teenagers just walk round looking like they are waring pj's tucked in to their Uggs

How's everyone getting on? Make sure that sometime tonight you clear away after dinner (d/w or sink) and that you shine that sink

Good point Madhouse Luckily (for me anyway) the local secondary has quite a strict uniform policy and most kids looked very presentable
I wore my jeans for the first time to invigilating and felt underdressed - back to my trusted black trousers tomorrow

Dinner is done, have done the washing up, dried and put away. worktops and hob wiped, sink is clean and dry. (it is a composite granite so will never be shiny really, will it )

Will put clothes out for tomorrow before bed.
It is Mufti Day for the dc tomorrow and if I don't put their clothes out they may just pull on uniform on auto-pilot

How is everyone else getting on?

I still have a load of washing sitting in the machine waiting to be hung on the airer - will do that in a mo.
Floors and rest of house still a state, but we are doing babysteps after all

oops, went a bit emoticon crazy on that last post

Dds are finally in bed. I have got their clothes out for tomorrow (dont do my own as I like to choose in the mornings depending on weather), so off to make a cuppa, clean sink and put DW on.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Dc's in bed, washing hung on airer, clothes for tomorrow on bannister (for dc) and on bedroom chair (for me)

Bags packed for tomorrow except my own, items for tombola donation for mufti day packed and with dc's bags.

Am getting the hang of this being organised lark

Oooh Flowery, I'm sooo glad you're on here, it's so nice to know I'm not the only one who has fallen off the wagon from the last thread!

OK, clothes were out this morning.

I'm going to shine the sink before I go to bed.

I might do the post-its just to remind everyone else in the house what they are meant to do.

Oh and Shannara too!

It is like meeting up with old friends on this thread (I know you all even if you don't know me, as I have been known to namechange....)

I need a serious kick back into gear, and will be here tomorrow for a proper babystep.

Promise.

I have a shiny sink

See y'all tomorrow
