    Auntie Pigpen I'm so pleased Tabitha is doing better! Lots of hugs for you and yours still.

    Mudbath - I might be able to join in sometime with that! I might do an hour this afternoon, depends how studying goes!

    Well done for the paperwork TAG!!

    I'm going to do some more studying now, need to get a couple of hours in today. I'm so sick of this exam!

    FF- the good thing about having a husband who saves every bit of paper is that he has the receipt still. He's going to take it back after work so I need to clean it up a bit....stripes likes mud!! I'm guessing after no flying for 6 weeks my house is a LOT worse than yours so finding 60 things a minute would be easy here!! I'll stick to 60 an hour.

    Off I go xx

    Well done anyway, 60 items an hour is a great achievement - even if it is moving 1 piece of paper or pen... ;)

    Just had an update from my sis.. Lumbar puncture and bloods back and are fine Tabitha has a scan booked for this afternoon so depending on what that comes back as she should be home tomorrow.. she has stopped fitting.. I said to her it could have just been pressure on her brain from being born. Good news there!!

    Fantastic news, I'm really pleased and sending good scan vibes in Tabithas direction... :A

    OK, last push before I stop for lunch...
    Anyone want to join me for a quick HHC 1.15 - 1.45 ? (Bit late, sorry)

    missed the last HHC but going to make a cuppa now, then do a HHC at 1.45, and get 60 things from the spare room/DD's room to put in the charity bag...

    So now i've done;

    Decluttered 60 things between 7 and 8
    Decluttered 60 things between 8 and 9
    Decluttered 60 things between 9 and 10
    Decluttered 60 things between 11 and 12
    Decluttered 60 things between 12 and 1
    Decluttered 60 things between 1 and 2

    I really am on to the bits of paper now as i've done all the big things...it's worked really well though as the house is now really, really tidy. If I start on the little things now it will look fab! Tomorrow I need to start up with the cleaning again.

    Is it only me with a wide screen then? xx

    no wide screen here mudbath, but wanted to say thanks for the 60 things an hour challenge, it has spurred me on to sort out clothes and put other things away, rather than clean around them!!!!!Did 2 hours this morning and will do another couple this afternoon......

    I'm glad the 60 things an hour has helped - it's so simple and has totally turned this house around. I think i'm going to do it every Monday as that's when our house is at it's worse after the weekend. Then, when the place is ok i'll do the normal list. That way, when I get too tired towards the end of the week at least the place is tidy!

    Still wide here....strange because mine wasn't wide when you all said yours was wide...i'm confusing myself now!

    15 minutes until the next 60 things! xx
