OOOH. Bit of a shake up. I was expecting the kitchen again. Nice to see you keeping us on our toes Moggins.

Brilliant. I'm really up for this week, I have spent the weekend tidying up so that my half hour a night can be spent on the actual cleaning stuff that I never seem to get round to.

Must make sure i write down the list the night before so I can get on with it before coming on here and getting distracted by the amazing adventures of pigpen! Love this thread!

Lovely thats much easier than the kitchen and toilets, thanks moggins I like an easy start to the week

Ladygrim · 18 February 2007 at 10:16PM

Livingroom and hallway for me - no stairs or landings.
Will also attempt to complete my weekly menu and add onto the delivery arriving on Tuesday.

(I am also hoping to venture into the attic sometime this week to continue my 27 fling boogie up there)

Thanks Moggins - you're a star!!! :A :A

Been a lurker for a while, this thread looks fun. spent ages doing the kitchen and bathroom today so a nice easy day doing my tiny hall and living room should be ok.

Excellent, will go threw dresser and throw all the !!!!!! DH keeps in there in a box for him to sort out. I will not move junk with us to the new house! Also will give me chance to try out my new vax spot scrubber out of a couple of marks that have appeared over the weekend!

Thanks Moggins

Thanks Moggins! Having had a week away, I'm hoping to keep up even if I'm back at school! And DH had just suggested the livingroom might benefit from a little straightening - his piano pupils/parents often end up waiting so needs to show I'm not a complete slob! We were straight before halfterm, but 24hrs back & the clutter has rushed back! Here's to a good week for us all!

:hello:
Well i completely chnged my front room around on friday so not much to do but it will give me a chance to sort out my draweres in here, they seriously need doing!

This evening i started to paint my front room walls, i have to put a basecoat on before i put the colour on (i havent even decided what colour i'm having it yet!:eek:) so i will spend the evenings finishing it off, the room is massive so it will take a few days.
