    My list for today:
    Monday Marvels- Living Room & Hall & Stairs
    Level One
    Clear floors of clutter
    Level Two
    Sweep floors - lounge, hall, kitchen
    Wipe sofas and tables
    Level Three
    vacuum under any furniture you can move safely
    Also from my own list
    Buy more bread mix to make rolls (MrT)
    Fold dry washing
    [strike]Hang up nappies to dry[/strike]
    Take DS to class
    Clean oven and grill (?????? Would like to but depends on back!).
    As you can see its been shortened from PigPens's list but my back has been aching for last two days- I am hoping to get most of it done when DS has his afternoon nap at about 1.30pm, otherwise mess will be ignored lol (actually its not too bad, mainly DS's crumbs).

    Laughably the first question is "In preparation for Block 1 you developed a weekly study planner. Describe how you have planned your time to study the rest of this course. You should consider your weekly timetable as well as any time management issues over the course as a whole, such as holidays, work or other planned commitments" then it goes on to part b which is "What are your difficulties and constraints and how do you plan to overcome them?" :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    However you do realise that there are people out there who are that organised.

    Morning everyone, cold here this morning, car and grass froze so need to bring in a bag of coal. Poor Bo been sick this morning which isn't like him so will keep an eye today.

    Right better go and get on with things will update later.

    Thanks pigpen for the list and hello to all newbies.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
  • OK!

    Today I've not started so well because I'm still in bed. However, I have had breakfast, watched a film with my son and spent an hour on the phone to the bank and O2 to sort out bills and whatnot. I am now going to get up because I have an errand to run. Hubby has cleaned the hob and the kitchen worktops so far.

    What I plan to do today with DH's help:

    Get out my pit, have a shower and get dressed
    At least 3 loads of laundry, washed and dried
    35 fling boogie
    Wash down the front door
    Organise the shoes and coats at the front door
    Sweep and mop the hall floor
    Hoover the stairs
    Sweep the living room floor
    Dust the living room
    Clean the paintwork
    Bake a cake

    Hubby will:

    Hang the coat rack back up on the wall
    Tidy the toddlers' room sufficiently to be able to...
    ...put up the toddler's bed
    Make lunch
    Make dinner

  • Morning all

    Didn't keep up with the thread last week as not near a puter much but hopefully will be better this one

    :hello: to Zoo, Frazz, BCBook and JJ (and well done Ashia for inspiring mum :D) This site is loads easier than the american one - no bombarding emails or happy slappy optimism just a practical way of getting on top of everything so you can feel that you've made some progress every day - plus if you're good, our glorious leader pigpen will throw you a dog biscuit instead of her furry mule :D . As Flower says, baby steps, try to join in with HHCs (Half hour challenges) and you won't feel like you're battling on your own.

    Mudbath - DH bought me a Wii for my birthday and we've really enjoyed it, tho i'll bet the kids would pick it up quicker than adults. The packages only usually come with 1 remote so you'll need to get at least one more to prevent arguments - they're about £30 each but if you shop around you can sts find a remote + a game for about the same money (got mine from Asda with the play game). The Wii fit also very good tho' it does nag you if you don't go on it everyday!!!

    Nicki - good luck with getting the TMA out on time

    G+B - good luck with the revision and exams

    Summermoon - are you still off the fags?

    Crikey Flower, that's some list you've got there - it nearly rivals Lou's one

    Triker - your cake was class - how many people baggsied a cat poo? :D

    Gonna scarf some brekkie then will be back with my list
