    2. Wash the paintwork
    3. Deweb and ust and demould these rooms!
    4. De-Clutter the Bathroom Shelves/Medicine Cabinate and Window Sill
    5. Put away the washing (or more the the point get the kids to do it)
    6. Finish the washing the washing basket
    7. Drive to my husbands work to take him lunch (dumbass took the massive tub of curry which was ment for ALL our tea, rather than his small tub of cassarole...numpty)
    Morning Lady's and Gent's not in work today as i took 2 days holiday to watch the kids Woohhhoooo get to spend the day at home with the kids.

    It "should" mean i can get some good flying done today... well heres my list.

    Now im abit undecided what to do today, hubby did "try" and do the bothroom yesterday, but he didn't use any cleaning products just a wet cloth, while it's much better than it was i can't say he did a brilliant job :o

    Now he is trying... and just getting some kind of effort out of him right now is HUGE HUGE achivement.. i didn't even think he knew where the cleaning clothes where haha. :rotfl:

    So what should i do??... do i "re-do" the bath/toilet and sink and risk him noticing that i re-did them?? or do i just leave them as they are even though they are kinda streaky and as still abit mucky??

    It this point im just wary of making him feel like he's not doing a good job, because it will discourage him, he's not gonna bother helping if he thinks i'll re-do it all anyway... eekkk decisions decisions.

    The list is a pretty easy one for me today my bathroom is tiny.. haha.. the only major job is on level 3 .. clear the PC desk, EEeeeek i have 2 desks one is my husbands and im not touching that in fear of my life haha, but ill do mine ... might take a while as it's REALLY bad.

    I did clear the desk bit on monday but the shelve above and the little cuboard are chocka with things to be de-cluttered.:eek: On the plus side i've been meaning to do it for AGES it's still full of my UNI stuff and i qualified 2 years ago haha, im sure i can find a better use for the space. :T

  • :hello: Morning everyone:hello:
    Had a bit of a crisis with 2DS last night so never got a chance to get back on here. He burst out crying and told me he is being bullied at school. Poor wee soul only told me as yesterday in class the bully said to him that he has sex with his mum and he didn't want anyone saying nasty thing about me. :mad: Been on to the school this morning so hopefully they will sort it all out.

    Toots, Piper thinks she is the bee's knees with that moving star. She was running around shouting I got a star, I got a star! Thanks it made her day.
    Flylady_Flower and Kazwookie thanks for Piper's stars she was really chuffed. When asked how many stars I got and I said one she said that's because she worked harderest!
    Thanks to everyone for there encouragement for Piper she is up and ready to go this morning. First words out of her mouth were whats on Auntie Pigpens list today! Might actually get 1 out of the 3 to help me:j

    Good bathroom day did it on Monday but it's needed it again so here goes!, Well after a cup of tea!

    Bathroom floor washed... by hand as it was just the one, and possibly more thoroughly than when I mop it!

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I can't believe you two... mind you, a bit of competition is good - although you are both stark raving mad... :rotfl:
    I know there are a few others on AOL.
    Have any of you set up your email on Outlook?
    I do have the instructions printed out, but being a feartie I want to be sure it is straightforward.

    Just go for it Crafty, Outlook is pretty easy anyway, tells you what to do - just go to 'tool' and 'account settings' to get the ball rolling, and if you have the instructions that should be fine, and you'll know if it works when you start getting your emails, if you don't you know you did it wrong and need to check stuff... ;) (that made sense in my head!)
    Just trying to catchup with all the posts. I read this to mean she didn't get her smile from me :rotfl: but read it again and I know what you mean.
    Ahh, sorry, no, she did get her smile from you, but I meant it was from an outsider not just her mum, which I'm glad you got in the end, she's lovely...:D :D:D
