morning ladies can i join??

Quick bit of background, i live in a 2 bed home with my 2 daughters aged 22 months and 4 weeks!!!!!

I was ill through the last 4 ish months of my pregnancy and the house was pretty much left to the husband who did the bare minimum (why can't men clean properly) to keep the home in a habitable condition but not alot else. As a result we have clutter everywhere and basically every room needs a good deep clean and declutter and sort.

I would like to join you all and start off slowly, I feel i need the support and motivation from others, I have tried to do cleaning in the evening but when husband gets in from work he usually suggests an easy night watching a film and relaxing between baby feeds of DD2 is cluster feeding so I really should start taking baby steps throughout the day.

Morning all

Welcome to the newbies

I've got three loads of washing on the line including DD's bedding, the throws from the living room and normal clothes load. Hope it stays dry like they've said, it is breezy too.

Dusted living room and computer desk and vacuumed right through downstairs.

I had a phone call yesterday afternoon to say my uncle had died suddenly, we only saw him last Saturday and he looked the same as ever, he was 80. I feel really shocked, although I know at 80 I shouldn't be, but still.

10.15 - 10.45 HHC - I managed to .........
Take down the shower curtain and pick up bath mats for washing. Clean the bath, tiles, sink and toilet. Cleaned the window, window frame and mirror. Wiped the door and door frame. Swept and mopped the floor.

And DS has just made me a cup of tea :eek: Something very strange going on there.:rolleyes:

OK done my HHC. Have put the WM on AGAIN, dusted the bedroom , swept the kids bedroom and main bedroom and cleaned the upstairs windows.

All I need to do now is get DS and DD to tidy up downstairs before we go out.

So sorry to hear about your uncle. What a shock for you, esp after seeing him so well, so recently. I hope it was as peaceful as possible for him. ((((HUGS)))
