    I will be in this week too. Key task is to sort the junk/paperwork out so I can get to my business stuff for last year so I can do my tax return. I want to do a deep clean on at least one room to keep the momentum up.

    G n B glad your DD is better, and hugs for you and your DS Dusty.

    Lil-me, congrats on the weight loss. All of a pound lost by me but better than putting some on.

    I do like the spring cleaning of avatars!

    hex2.. I lost an entire 1lb as well.. I get really demoralised when attempting to rid myself of excess bulk as it comes off so utterly slowly, if it shifts at all I hate it..

    I'm in too. Not sure how motivated I'm feeling, but if I'm going to get the utility room finished I need to get everything else sorted.

    Thanks for the list Pigpen, and glad everything's OK... I was just wondering how many bedside tables you have if you've managed to get rid of three... :confused: and how many sides your bed has :D

    I'm working from home tomorrow, so my list includes:

    Go to school to check for paperwork
    Post office with MoF77's parcel (if anyone else wants any of the stuff out of my garage, let me know and I'll send it to you ;) )
    Clear paperwork on desk whether work or personal
    Write business case and explain it to boss
    Respond to stroppy work email received yesterday that I couldn't be a*sed to deal with
    Gym @ 1.30, yoga @ 6.30, pilates @ 7.30

    Toots - thanks for the reminder about logging off an hour before bed. My mum keeps telling me that too... but even when I was at my brother's on Friday I STILL didn't get to sleep until 2ish. Mind you, at least I haven't become completely nocturnal like flower :rotfl:
  • I'm in. Bedroom not looking too bad but DD1's room is an absolute disgrace so think I'll tackle tidying that then I can actually clean it at some point in the week. Also have a mountain of ironing and washing to wash, dry, sort, iron, fold away. Have got various piles at various stages in every room of the house!

    But I have done a good job on the kitchen tonight so I'm glad that's looking good.

    it's DH's bday on Thursday and I was thinking of asking those who know our story to wear/find something yellow for the day. His daffs are starting to poke through now which always makes me smile.

    I have a yellow Tshirt so will wear that on Thursday and think of you all.

    Off to add milk to the Tesco order and put the little [STRIKE]monkeys [/STRIKE]darlings in bed!

    I'll be in. I do my kitchen on Mondays and then I plan to do some more painting.
  • I will join you sexymouse.
    The work will wait for you to finish showing the LOs the rainbow, but the rainbow would not wait for you to finish the work.

    I'm in again - have had quite a productive weekend, have baked and S&S'd and sent OH to the tip with lots of junk and the old dishwasher.

    Good to see you Pigpen (though a week off would have been nice)

    My M.A.C.A.W challenge this week is..............
    to keep up with my marking!!!!!!
    I will join you in this if that's OK Loki?
    I also want to keep doing last week's as I am so not a morning person so having less to do in the morning is a huge help...which was making my packed lunch the night before - well getting it all together.
    Well that's not true - I am a morning person ... but I like it light - it's so much easier in the summer...
