Hello again! DD quite cheerful now but was having a grumpy morning so running a bit behind. Need to sort laundry and do mission but did drawer recently so doubt it'll take too long. As for the shoes, none of mine is going anywhere - I hardly have any and the ones I do have I love too much to throw away. Ruby - I'm afraid your ego boosting transvestite moment did make me smile.
Was going to write more but have just spotted DD with a babywipe and if she's pulled one out theres probably a whole packet chucked across the floor. Why didn't anybody warn me that they're a handful at 18 months?

Evening all

What a pants day, taking mum to the hospital and collecting her has taken up most if not all of it.

Anyway I will not toss shoes. I am an Imelda and refuse to count them, but I have 100's of them - all in good nick, most from BC - I get them heeled and all that stuff and clean them all.

I did manage to get a curtain rail we needed, but not he hooks yet.

Tomorrow is another day

Evening all

tort sorry bout the scales - annoying

counting I agree with grouchy about the lists. Often I feel like I've not done anything much, but when I stop an list what I have done I see that I have usually done quite a lot.Listing what I've done helpes me to focus and cheers me up! I bet if you stop and think about what you have done it is loads!

mad sorry about your day. Hope your mum got on ok, take it easy this evening and start fresh tomorrow!

A busy but good day here.
managed to sort all of lunch, washing and floors before story time.
DD4 loved story time and we stayed and played ( it's at an indoor play place - slightly less horrendous than usual though!) for a while which both she and DS loved it so a good afternoon!

Not much time for much flying after that.
done various pick ups.
Reading done (kids that is not mine!)
Dinner done and cleared
kids bathed , pj'd, littlies bed
Ds1 gone fencing

To do:
bit of clean washing to wash and sort
last bit of tidying in kitchen
quick sort of fridge before shopping arrives tomorrow
Shine sink
Read book
Bed

Plans for tomorrow:
Shopping delivery am
hoover lounge
baking
more on zone cleaning and mission

See you all tomorrow!

evening all

just popping in to say urgh! Have had a pretty pants day and a long one at that and ds has come home with a temp and feeling grotty. However, dp did make me a nice dinner (Rachel Allen is rapidly becoming my favourite chef) which kind of made up for it and my replacement laptop has finally arrived and tomorrow is another day!

I am going to chill and drink wine (am on second glass and have also had a gin )

counting \i agree with grouchy and galen about the lists too. I only really post what I have managed to achieve, the real benefit of this thread (aside from the friendship) and flylady for me is that in posting my achievements, however small, I realise that I have actually achieved something and it makes me feel more positive.

evening all.
not much flying happened past couple of days as i been in uni. but will be trying to get more done tomorrow.
i dont need to do todays mission though as i threw out loads of shoes the other week (the dc mainly). and i throw out odd socks etc as soon as they become odd, i can't bear having them lying around.
i changed the childrens beds today
and did the washing up, quick tidy and hoover, thats it.
i want to do yesterdays mission but cant do it unless i have a day off cos i'd wake dd doing it. was on my plan of things to do soon anyway so will aim to do it by end of the week.am absolutely shattered but have half an essay to write by the end of this week so cant go to bed yet

swanriver · 20/01/2009 21:39

Bedtime routine done everyone asleep(dd in her 'tent' downstairs)
2nd supper cooked and eaten
Clearing up in progress
more laundry done
hoovered behind chest of drawers on landing and found a mobile phone (from 2 years ago), set of keys(very useful)and several odd socks. and DUST.

TO DO
wash more uniform for tomorrow
read book
have a glass of wine, now feeling cross about accusations of sneaking books out of house without dh's knowledge

Goodnight everyone, and hope your poor lo is alright Wolfcub. And that you find strength to do a bit of essay Dylsmum.

dylsmum1998 · 20/01/2009 23:44

well thats me done for the night.
Thanks swan i did manage to do the amount i set myself to do. i was aiming to get my word count up to 1500 tonight, i got to 1567, so very pleased.
hope you find th emissing books, you reminded me i have a couple of the dc library books missing, although am sure i returned one of them before christmas will have to turf off the bookshelf to see if it has got muddled before i go down and speak to them!

Night all
