rach

Hello all

Didn't get on yesterday as we went straight to town for the theatre after work - it was fantastic! Ian McKellan, Patrick Stewart and Simon Callow in waiting for Godot and we were in the second row!

I did the kitchen before I left for work yesterday though so
Winkly Wednesday - Kitchen and dining room - DONE!!! :):)

I'm out doing GB straight after work tonight but will check in when I get back. Busy week at work for me but lots of nice walks so can't complain (til I'm on my knees at the end of the week - then I might!)

Hope all are well, hope you all have a good and productive day!

soappie

Crafty - hope you feel better soon.

No internet again this morning at home so I'm sneaking in from work just to say good morning so I can't do the thanks thing.

Have a good day ladies

My updated list. I am struggling to get things done this week, seem to have lost my initial movtivation from last week

Hi Sharon,

We all feel like this from time to time. Just put some music on and pick one item from anywhere on the list. Just one item.....dont think about anything else. And do that one.

Once that is finished, have a cup of tea and have another look at the list and pick something else. 1 thing at a time - dont look at the whole list or it starts to put you off.

Just go for all level ones for the rest of this week. Dont worry about the other levels. The rooms come round again every week and you can build up to the other levels.

HTH xx

Off to put kettle on xx

morning
don't know why but i woke at 3am and couldn't go back to sleep

kids got up at 6am :rolleyes: and dd had leftover cold pizza for breakfast (she snuk into the kitchen and ate piece by piece )
ds is busy playing his nintendo so at least they give me a chance to wake up in a slower pace ...

it's ds's birthday tmrw - can't believe he'll be 5!!!!!!!!!!
they'll be at nursery tmrw so that'll give us enough time to wrap everything and put the swing up in the garden - he could choose if he'd rather have friends round for a party or go to a 'special' place - we'll take him to diggerland next weekend dh is off


Jo what an idiot (replace idiot with rosepinks word for it ) - good girl for telling him what you think of him! he really needs to stop calling you!!!!

Thanks Jo great tip. Only one flaw in that theory, if I sit down with cuppa I may not get up again lol

As it happens I have now done all the kitchen/dining room except for sweep/mop and degunge the fridge. I Have one of those big American fridges and its so full of stuff I just can't bear the thought of dragging it all out to clean it so that one may not get done anyway

Lol - i know what you mean about the tea.....sometimes I skip that step too!

Re the fridge - just do the top shelf. Chuck any stuff out of date, clean the rack/shelf then replace.

Tomorrow, do the next shelf and so on.

Its the horrible big jobs that put us off, so just do one bit at a time xx
