    Cheers Lil_me.. I think I've got myself back on track.. though I might just be pretending lol.. thanks though.. xx

    Toots.. thanks hun.. and yes I HAVE to keep on at it all week.. it is revolting and I cannot stand to sleep in it it is so bad.. I am hoping to be able to paint it next weekend.. hubby is buying paint this week.. but the walls will have to be done one at a time and they ALL need sanding.. and the carpet is being binned so I can slop it about as much as I like.. and even let hubby loose with a roller.. he makes a frightful mess!

    Vivw.. no I am absolutely NOT ahead. I will be playing catch up ALL week.. honestly you have never seen anything like my room..

    hubby just doing food and I'm going to go fiddle with my TD's and WM's.. children put away the dry laundry.. and the rabbits keep undoing the cage door and running wild...

    I'll stick with it too - I started well last week but petered out a bit towards the end partly because we were trying to get decorating stuff done and that seemed more important. Our bedroom definitely needs looking at though so that's a good incentive to have a go at that tomorrow night.

    Thanks for your efforts on our behalf Pigpen - and good luck with your major decluttering session!

    I'm in, just removed some boxes from the landing to the loft so that's handy.

    I've still only managed to hoover downstairs, hoping to get further tomorrow.

    Just doing Cheese on toast for DS3. He doesn't like roast and was at a friends whilst I was at the hospital and got given roast at lunchtime - 2 in a day is 2 too many for him. Then I will hoover the stairs on my way up.

    Serena - I hope you are coping with your bedroom being a storage ground - I'm guessing you will be going off plan tomorrow.

    I'm in again.
    Master bedroom already not too bad - nothing much lives on the floor and nothing lives on the landing floor as if it does somebody always manages to fall over it when going to the bathroom in the night without turning the light on!
    I may investigate some of my bedroom drawers but my wardrobe is fine as I do a trawl through each spring/autumn when I pull the new seasons clothes to the front & if I don't keep it tidy I can never find what I'm looking for.
