Right I'm in again this week........but going to adjust the list's to suit me more.

I tried it for a week but really my problem is tidying and keeping on top of things rather than cleaning. Also finding the time to sort out 'hotspots' that have been there since we moved in 2 years ago:-)!!!

I just felt last week I was so focused on sticking to the list that I was cleaning windows when really I should have been doing more productive things. (also spent way to long trying to find my list in the thread and losing my temper with the computer lol).

So plan for this week..................Will stick to rooms that are on list and do the basics but focus on a hot spot in that room.......it will take me weeks to get sorted but hoping I will get there.

So tomorrow plan is......

1. Do ALL the washing up.
2. wipe surfaces and sweep/mop the floor.
3. Clean out fridge. Desperately needs doing!

Then.........Organise and clean store cupboard that has big boiler in it and hardly any storage!! but seems to be piled high with junk....this allowing me to do mini stock take of tins and jars before monthly shop for April.

Wish me luck!!

Hi, Please count me in this week
Have been AWOL for the past few days so flying has slipped a bit.
It is DH's birthday tomorrow and he has a day off work so probably won't get much done then but aim to catch up as I don't like all this mess :mad:
Will also try and catch up with the thread..........................................
Hope everyone is well and hugs to all of you who aren't.

:rotfl: x 1million, just nearly wet myself laughing at DP throwing a complete tantrum. Kids have hidden his game he wanted to play on, so he's decided they can't be trusted with it, pulled the wires out of the PS3 and took it to his bedroom like a proper boy taking his ball home :rotfl: he's wondering why I find it so hilarious but he's being so childish about it it's hilarious.

Problem is now he's left a big clean patch on the TV unit

Pigpen sending you a big squish hug xx
Triker hope the girls are better tomorrow, I must admit I do sometimes feel guilty about how much I enjoy the quiet when mine are poorly evil stuff that calpol, makes them all boinky again
toochoosey we're off to Filey for 11 days/10 nights in the caravan inc several days of peace just me, the little ones and the dog while DPs at work
tia if you're reading, stop overdoing it!!!

Anyway just managed to get my 2008 expenses form done which I'd kept forgetting. I need to do up to April 2009 but can't find diary so will do it tomorrow. £160 worth there from 2008......and here was me putting it off thinking it wouldn't be much! That'll be a nice bonus as I've already spent the money on the petrol holiday spending money for May if it comes through on time.

Right, uniforms are out, DPs gone to bed in a huff so think I'll give him another 10 minutes and go myself. He's had about 3 hours sleep max which is no doubt adding to his tetchyness.....

Thanks pigpen and toots for the lists. I am in this week and will aim to get kitchen and living as close to level 3 as I can this week. Every where else I’ll do my best.

I still have yr 10 statistics course work hanging over my head and it must be done for Friday as we are moderating then. I had great plans to do it last week but DS was not well. Then all my hopes of catching up over the weekend went tits up as I spent the weekend in hospital with DS. He has had pneumonia. DH took him to the GP as the antib was not improving his condition and was told to take him to A&E. So that was all Friday afternoon sat around in A&E then all weekend at hospital. Even more time sat around at the out of hours GP as DD has had a fever as well. She has the bug but is fine so far. I will be watching her closely.

My kitchen is filthy with dirty pots and dishes lying around from Thursday. I did some washing up on sat morning then went back to hos but they are all dirty again. I was too tired and feeling a bit ill when we got in today that I just went to bed and slept until it was time to do dinner. The living room is filthy as well and the dinning room as with the rest of the house is back to being a landfill again. Over the Easter break I must wash the downstairs carpets as there are spots where the LOs have been sick and it’s been hurriedly cleaned.

DH has gone off to work with the weeks shop and will bring it back at his break. Hopefully I can have the kitchen cleaned by then so it will be a matter of putting it away and heading off to bed. Hopefully LOs don’t wake a lot tonight as they are still feeling miserable. I am still feeling a bit ill and if I don’t feel better by the time I am ready for bed I will probably call in sick. I hope I haven’t picked up anything else hanging around the hos.

Sorry for the long post and for off loading on you all but this thread does help to keep it all in proper perspective and stop me feeling sorry for myself. We all have challenges and the support here is great. My MACAW this week is to pop in at least twice as my house returns to a landfill when I don’t.

I know I would get board living on easy street but can’t help but wish for a few months. A bit of success I am caught up on the thread for once if only for today.

Welcome all new to the thread and (((hugs))) to those who need it.

Iriedaughter sorry to hear about your DS, thats awful. Hope the meds get him back up and recovering soon. xx
