Did a few things but can't put any clean linen back on my bed cause I can't find any :mad: the ones I took off need drying and teenie has 2 (!!!!!!?) duvets on his bed and he's used both my spares grrrr so need to either a: dry the sheets and do the bed tonight.... or b: buy myself a nice new set, it's been about 10 yrs since I had new sheets hmmmmmmmm...after a moments thought I'm gonna dry the ones I took off, only Asda open now and I fancy some nice quality thread count ones when I do buy some more....ok I'm waffling...

Wednesday - Master messroom and landing

When you come back from Messy Church, maybe you could explain to us old ones, what Messy Church is?

As I have never heard of it.

I've totally failed today. After a really good start to the week. I had good intentions but with an 11 month old touching everything while I was trying to sort out....I gave up. I managed to strip his cot bedding and sort ou a big pile of clothes that are now spread all over the floor!
I will try and get some done later but need to cook dinner and I went on a mamouth shop today in the pouring rain and I don't want to stress too much or I'll give up altogether...What's the best tactic for days like this? To try and get it done tomorrow as well or just to leave it until next time?...Obviously I will strip the bed tomorrow!

I've had enough of work... I seem to spend my whole time filing emails so I can send things out!

I'm off to do some baking... I want to see whether I can make red velvet cupcakes, and then possibly some pink ones, and then whether I can be bothered to make any more after that!

ETA melliec we all have days like that honey -dont get stressed - forget about it and do tomorrow's list tomorrow and if you have time you can do bits of today's afterwards- until you get used to the flying dont worry about playing catch-up it gets too soul destroying to always be behind! It all comes around next week anyway!! toots xx

rach

melliec - a lot of us find we start the week well but struggle later in the week.
My suggestion would be to do what you have to to make it passable for this week, e.g. put the clothes away but leave the cleaning list until the same room's list comes around next week.

When you first start the best thing is to just do level one the first week, level 2 the second and so on.

:o:o in my defence though the fire people were meant to be coming on monday but they cancelled and are coming in march instead... we did have some but they went off everytime you cooked anything they were that sensitive so i got rid of them:o our stairs are in the kitchen so i couldn't shut the door (it was on the landing) when i was cooking to stop it from happening
