New plan for 2009

Hi everyone
I am knackered!! Was up at 5.30am for the carboot. Didn't do as well as I thought but made £110 so not too bad. That will go towards my council tax.
I'm going to try and do another before the end of July. I've still got quite a bit of stuff left over so will just top it up a bit with carboot lots from Freecycle.
Tonight my plan is to do as much washing as possible and attempt to clear up the downstairs of my house, and possibly as much of the upstairs as I can too.

£110 is excellent Emily, well done :T :TMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
Mortgage Overpayments Pot £15870 -
Think I am going to have to stop with the housework for now. Got a really bad stomach and feel shattered. Still, have nearly done 2 loads of washing and did make a start on downstairs.
Will be more with it tomorrow evening so think that a list is in order:- Hang out washing before I go to work and put another wash on.
- Go to post office to pick up 2 parcels before going to work (could be prizes :j).
- Clean kitchen
- Sort out old Avon books
- Clean bathroom

I did clear out my Avon books but that was it. Still, I am off work tomorrow and Wedsnesday so will get the house clean then.

Theres more to life than housework hun!
I know, but I never feel like I do any. The amount of washing I had was obscene!! My mum nearly had a fit before throwing a load of it in a bag and taking it to her house to do!! I just need to get more organised and do a little bit every day instead of having to have a massive clean up every few weeks.
Mind you, my mum was even more amazed by my fridge. All I have in there is butter, mayo, orange juice and a couple of cans of pepsi. In other words, I need some food. Will do a shop tonight or tomorrow.
Ok, back to the washing and cleaning, hoovering, dusting.............0 -
Housework nearly done I am pleased to say. The last lot of washing is on as we speak, will put that all out to dry tomorrow. Got to get the dry lot off the line. Kitchen and upstairs is all clean. Just need to hoover half the stairs and the whole downstairs and I am all clean and tidy!! Oh, and bathroom is clean too.
I put a wanted post on Freecycle this afternoon and a kind lady on there has a desk for me. She is just down the road so just have to get some help in the form of my ex and I can go and get it. I need to get rid of the unit that I have there at the moment so will just put that on Freecycle later on. What goes around comes around and all that.
It is way to hot to be hoovering, I am boiling!! Sooner I get it done the better.0 -
