It's taken me an hour to catch up after getting back from work! Thanks to all the encouragement last week, I slept like a log in my clean house and clean sheets, got up at 6am, did 15 mins ironing, cleaned the loo, went for a swim before work, managed to get to yoga after work, washed my gym kit, and have cooked for tomorrow evening. :A :A :A
So... off to load the DW, make my breakfast/lunch for tomorrow (I have a 7am gym appointment... at least it keeps the bathroom clean!), pack up my gym bag, do a bit more ironing (the end is in sight), and possibly clear a couple more things from my desk, which is currently invisible (I think it will be a month or so before I can actually get to it to do the cleaning).
Tomorrow's another long day, so I'm not sure how much I'll get done, but I'll be working from home on Wednesday, so hopefully can get a few things done during the day (who needs a lunch break when you can spend half an hour ironing instead :rolleyes: ).
Thanks for the inspiration!0 -

I haven't done any of the list today.
I have dirty dishes by my sink (drainer is full of clean ones that I've just washed
), there is still washing hanging around in the livingroom (the jumpers will go upstairs tomorrow though to finish drying off in the airing cupboard), and lots of "just dumped" stuff, the food processor is out (just made chicken liver pate) but you know what.....
I DON'T CARE:p
Tomorrow I'll tackle it.... I'm off to bed to hopefully get a good night sleep :rotfl::rotfl: :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0
