Hair decluttered! A few more emails done.

Looked up from laptop and my friend was on the screen - she's in doctors today!

I watched doctors, I thought it was a good story line. Which was your friend? Was it Ruth's friend!!

You did well you've got a 100 sts, I only have 21 on 12mm needles using Sirdar ribbon. I'm going to carry on knitting, just so I don't have to go back to packing, ran out of bubble wrap this morning so had to order some more, never mind gives me more knitting time. :rotfl: (Excuses, excuses).

No toilet roll fairy here!!

Little breather then I start to tackle here in the study

HHC at 3.15 for those not on the school run?
grateful - I work full time but shiftwork - a bit and often makes me feel much less churlish about the whole housework thing - no one expects you to be perfect and we all fall off the wagon every now and then - I STILL prefer CSI tho' :rolleyes:

I am a bad person. Yet another of those flippin telesales people foned up and said: "Is that Mr.....?" I said: "This is a WOMAN'S VOICE, NOT A MAN'S VOICE!" He said in a very meek voice: "Ok thank you goodbye."

is it possible to do this and work full time, or do i have an excuse?!

I work full time and commute 4 hours daily meaning i leave the house at 7am get home at 8pm.

I started last week i don't always manage to get the WHOLE list done but i try and get AT least level 1 done and as much of level 2-3 done as i can, this week i've enrolled my two sons (age 7-9) palming off any suitable jobs onto them, but i managed pretty much alone last week... it was hard but do-able.

Yesterday was my worst day to date... only half the list but as someone else said it's more than i used to do so thats a bonus.. somethings better than nothing right???

1 week in and my house is already looking much more organised and i can already feel the work getting easier.. for example last week my oven needed a really good scrub because it hadn't been done since christmas, yesterday it was a 2 minute wipe and i figure the longer i stick at it the easier it will all get.
