    pheww, i've almost done a double HHC!!!! - but i am feeling better now .. after having slacked so much over the last few days :o

    in my 50minutes i managed:

    - get dressed
    - un/reload dw (with kids help - so obviously took longer than normal :D )
    - washed all the rest pots/pans by hand, dried and put away
    - washed halogen cooker
    - cleaned mw
    - cleaned surfaces
    - cleaned hob/oven
    - put all ystd cooking into fridge (i normally forget and then have to throw away lots - i HAVE to try and do it straight away from now on!!!)
    - swept kitchen floor
    - tidied playroom (again with kids help :rolleyes: )
    - swept playroom floor
    - updated menu plan on wall


    how did everyone else get on?!?

    it still amazes me how much i can achieve talking to you ladies (and gents)
    it DOES help!!!!
    and once i actually get started, and if i try to clean/tidy things straight away it doesn't take long to actually get the house nice and tidy again :T
