Wednesday FLY - Lets get that fridge cleared and cleaned

[littleboyblue]

Morning ladies. Hope you don't mind the newbie starting. I am very excited to have now completed the babysteps! I may now start working on the missions.
I have a bit of work to do in my journal, but it will change regularly due to the childrens ages and developing needs, so not set in stone.
Hope you all have a good day.
Off now to finish my morning routine and write a to do list.

Hiya everyone
Well cost of oven door doesn't seem cost effective - handle alone is £60! over £200 to replace it all - doesn't seem worth it with the cost of ovens being quite cheap, and doesn't seem to be worth claiming on the insurance for - would rather get a new oven of my own choice than a replacement of the one there or a repair - spent a while at local electrical shop discussing it this morning.
My mum was useful too, she had children whilst I went to discuss oven, then she took them to the park whilst I nipped to Tesco to buy a new mop - which broke with overuse mopping up wee last week! I had another £10 off £30 to spend, and managed to spend £30.79

DS been horrid horrid today, he is super tired I think, but that doesn't help
mad those drops are awful aren't they
dyls you made me miss my nan, who died 15 years ago, and I still miss her . Nans really rock. My DC love their Nanna (my mum)
epimum sounds like you need a break today - ugh what a day!
laura like the metaphor! Just hitch a lift for for petrol and get it started again
gibbb you're right about lists - they so work!
grouchy hi! thought of you today at Wilton Park!

To do
Yoga
Sweep the hall
Routines
Menu planning
watch the apprentice - interview one!!
bed early! managed 11 last night which was early!

see you tomorrow

Hi all.

Enjoying the sunshine is a perfectly valid reason for not flying.

Epimum - sorry your dh is being made redundant . Does he have anything else lined up?

Gig - lucky dd1 and dd2.

oops, trouble ....bbl!

Right, where was I?...

Mad - your Birkenstock collection.

Wendy - new oven would be cheaper.

DS seems to be improving all the time. GP said his appetite should return in a few days, if not to go back (I hope he doesn't get any thinner).

Done:

Oh no now what! TSK! BBL

oh boy.... I need some serious FLY rescuing!
House in chaos again... lol Still agree with all that making most of nice weather, and more fun time with Dc outside is good for all...house will wait!

Have sorted some stuff for sale/ebay/carboot
played in the garden with DS this pm
then began bedroom swap/sort out....TOTAL chaos! toys and clothes everywhere! Still will get it finished tomorrow and will do beds at weekend!

Also rang homeserve to come and sort out heating that keeps coming on with the water despite being turned off
And rang costco to find out what documents dh needs to join....now just got to pursaude him to a family outing to costco at wk/end \lol

tomorrow:
buy present for Dd's friends bday party
finish bedroom chaos
nappy wash

right shall go and sneeze and snuffle some more....darned hayfever

see you all tomorrow

Evening all. I have had a really good day. I have done everything on my list! Yay. I managed to wipe the walls in the hallway along with doors and skirting boards, ds1 followed me and was hlping with a babywipe, he is 22 months so was very funny!
We went to the park at 1:30 and then to playgroup 3:30-5 and ds1 had dinner there, ds's both in bed, me and dp have had dinner, I've done my evening routine of cleaning kitchen, laying out tomorrows clothes for all 4 of us and have decided on dinner tomorrow.
I read some of you are having some time off and taking full advantage of weather, so not gloating, but I fel really good! I feel like I've had such a productive day, can't believe I did everything I wanted to and still had good time with ds's.
I'm also going to try to spend 15 mins a day on control journal and allocating days to certain jobs. I need to decide what I want to do daily and what I'm happy to do weekly and break it all down into manageable routines.

Not doing anything else today, so the work on journal will have to start tomorrow. I was bad and typed it all, just because then it's easier to change when family needs change and you find easier ways to do omething.

scattyspice thanx for sympathy, dh hasnt got anything else yet he's been appyling for jobs though so hopefully we'll be ok
wendyred i defently need a break thanx
dylsmum my sunburn really huts now
hope yours gets better soon
dh has gone out now so im going to tackle the ironing and get that dreaded job out the way, tomorrow's another day!!!!
good night all see you all on thursday's thread

So glad you had a good day lbb, it's so great to get stuff done and then get out rather than just floundering as is sometimes the case, and then jumping ship...

Afternoon has gone very well, partly because there has been no homework and no school tomorrow (Polling day at our school). So Wednesday hasn't felt like a dreadful race.

Done
Work at school library pretending to be David and Goliath, and then a wicked Stepmother - a complete workout really!
Invited friend's dcs round on spur of moment to play, and when she returned at 5.00 had a lovely chat with her - gave kids some teaish sort of meal
Bit of a mad rush to Beavers with a Brownie a Cub and a Beaver but that was FUN too
More suppery snacks afterwards
Read some stories and put everyone to bed by 9.00 with no bath (swimming tomorrow

Otherwise nothing done on my extras list except ratatouille.
But Swept front path
Loaded dw
Taken in laundry and put away some of it
Ironing pile growing bigger but at least in a place where I'm not tripping over it

Just need to tidy everything up now before dh gets back from work do..

evening all

long long day at work today, out of house before 7.30am home after 8.30pm

done

dw unloaded reloaded and on
ds taken to granny's
dusted whole of downstairs (don't be too impressed its not that big)
done 45 mins ironing

birthday tomorrow sob.

Galen, it is exciting though isn't swopping round furniture tis like buying new stuff really..
and I've really tried not to mind mess today - I just keep chipping away at it slowly. I think if someone I didn't know came round they would think the house was never cleaned at all...I suppose it is all just relative.

Now sink tackling.

You are working so hard wolf are things any better? Happy birthday for tomorrow!
swan bet your house isn't that bad at all!
llb you are an inspiration with your control journal!

Apprentice was good, yoga good, not eaten any naughty stuff today ... sick of hearing about MPs on the news so probably off to bed now! See you tomorrow

thursday!
