Hello :wave:

Just updated last week's list - still quite a few things not done and rolled over to this week's list (again). On a postive note, I am starting to see some clear space and feel just generally a bit more organised.






My list for this week (and you may see a recurring theme for some of them ) is

• Do my housework. Sort of.
• Do all my washing. Done except for some things that need to be handwashed separately.
• Do all my ironing. Done
• Do my marking. Done
• Start to enter CPD online. No.
• Go shopping and get enough food for the week. Done
• Check a cashback site for any freebie offers. No
• Clear filing trays completely. No!
• Do surveys as they arrive in my in-box. Mostly.
• Catch-up with competitions. No
• Keep up-to-date with competitions.No
• Clear the piles of empty coke bottles I've saved from work to enter into coke-zone. Done
• Do my daily scratch/clicks routine every day.Done
• Sell something. No have commited to £5 a day challenge so will have to do this very soon!
• Clear out some paperwork at work every day.Done
• Clear and clean one kitchen cupboard. Still not done - think will take it off list for time being!
• Throw/recycle/donate one thing every day. Done
• Have something to eat and wash-up before I put the computer on every night. Not really this week.
• Do any new things on the day they come in. Mostly
• Read gas/electric and enter readings online. Done
• Write to pension scheme to update details. No, must do this next week.
• Wash handwashing items which have been shoved to the bottom of the basket for a long, long time. No, they're back at the bottom again.

That's it for now, but have a feeling that I've forgotten something.

Have a good weekend.

So, starting very late today and trying to be realistic

[STRIKE]
washing on and sort
clean kitchen
floors and bathrooms
[/STRIKE]
quick dust and polish
[STRIKE]
cook dinner (already prepared)
water plants
[/STRIKE]chuck away dead plants
change light bulbs (2)
sort out wine stuff
change bed
book hotel and car hire

I've put some podcasts on my MP3 so I can wander around oblivious to the world and got going on this.

Hi Pandora and welcome to the challenge.

Hi Sarah, do you mean we're actually supposed to complete the list in one week? :rotfl::rotfl: I think you're getting further than me - have you seen the amount of things I've rolled over for the third week :rotfl:.

Got off to a flying start this morning, then went to sleep for most of the afternoon :rolleyes:. Lots of things in progress, but nothing fully done. Off to have a look at my list to see if there is anything quick and easy I can do, so I can tick something off.
