    Despite having such a good morning in school I have now returned home feeling very unmotivated. I'm going to spend half an hour on todays task list and see what I can achieve:
    Thursday twirls- Living Room, Hall and Stairs
    Level 1
    Vacuum floors and sofas
    declutter and dust the mantel
    Level 2
    Dusting, even if around everything
    Remove clutter making sure stairs especially are safe
    Clean TV, other electricals and cabinets
    clean the windows
    Level 3
    Wipe and water plants
    Put all your hotspots in one pile and work your way through it..
    Vacuum under furniture you can manage to move without hurting yourself
    Extra Mission: Pick one or more of the following tasks –
    1. HHI
    2. Wipe down any paintwork that needs it.
    3. Binbag dance.. Get a binbag.. fill it and bin it!!!
    4. Wash any cushions, throws or curtains that need it - none need it

      Will start at 2.30 - 3pm. Anyone care to join me?
    We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    :hello:

    Well as far as flying goes i haven't done bad. So as i normally run round friday gettign all done for OH coming home so this week its just the general jobs yay:T ...thank ladies for the motivational boost, i needed it.

    Been to get the school shoes, ds2 4 years old is now a size 12:eek: ds1 who is 9 is only a size 1 bless his little feet. My dd well that was fun size 1 too small and size 2 too big. So i have to go into town at the weekend :mad: .

    My electric use as gone down to 7 not quite sure how i manged that from 12 but hey its good. Also been reading gas meter i have used 1 unit in 2 days how many should we use? Not that i am moaning :rotfl: .

    OH and i have been talking marriage,:T we gonna have a look at venues this weekend. All i know is that i will have 5 bridesmaids and a civil ceremony so far. I want to try and keep to a budget of 3k as i don't want to get into debt for it. Is it actually possible these days????? My last wedding was 4k 10 years ago.

    TIA well done missus xx

    Foreversomeday hugs to you hun ((()))xx as for vacumming, i vacuum everything, skirting boards, picture rails, tv, sofa, keyboard, the dog, all the floors in the house get vacuumed no matter what covering, icurtains, curtain rails, inside the door frames to pvc doors and windows and to my neighbours amusement.....my back step....this way i find no build up and i don't have to go around dusting them. I have special attachments for the tv and sofa. I am not a saddo, honest i am not. I started doing this at home when i took my job that has 16 rooms and 3 toilets, long walkways. Far too many skirtings to dust so i vac them off 4 rooms per night for 4 days, but i am now gonna have to up it as now i am on 3 day week instead of 5.

    Oh well i suppose i should shift my butt and get a little bit more done xx

    :wave:
    You can touch the dust but please don't write in it !

    Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows whats happening?

    Ooh what a busy lot you all are. Well DS has prepapred his leaflets without a murmur...could it be anything to fo with the fact that he wants McKenzie clothes now? Hummm... seems to have forgotten about paying for ski trip.
    I have had a vigorous pruning session in the garden and have made rhubarb crumble for their pudding.
    Now that DS has gone out I will get on with jobs - living room needs doing - and yes I do vacuum the settee/sofa - and my usual Thursday job, the bathroom. But first - wash up and :coffee:
