    Try to organise yourself, set yourself a to do list stick it to the fridge and work your way down, no ones house with kids is spotless all the time .... trust me.. I ve got a huge plastic toy box from Ikea and a small wicker one in the fromt room, if she wants to get more toys out then the other ones need to go back in the box. The best tip of all is the less clutter the easier it is to tidy, Iam ruthless if it hasnt been used in the last 6 months to the bin it goes.

    It is much easier to see other people's failings than our own.

    I won this :Dhttp://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1780455&highlight=fabulousmag

    we wont be able to go to the festival that's on this weekend as it's too short notice, but it also includes tickets to boardmasters in newquay in august, which i've been to before and it's great so hopefully we can go to that one, depending on what day i've won tickets for as we're flying out on holiday on one of the days, but im hoping i've won tickets for the saturday in which case we can go.

    plus the goodie bag - no idea whats in that!!

    I'm not too bad with tidying, I manage that but it's cleaning. I can't stand doing it and I am just so exhausted with being ill and OH does so much already with looking after the LO's. I think we will try it that way and see how we go! I just need some motivation xx

    No offence taken :D

    I spend a lot of time on here, granted. But it is just sitting here. I only use the PC when LO's are having a sleep or when they are in bed. It's more the exhaustion, from being ill. I only manage about 20 minutes cleaning and I asm a mess, I try but I get really ill and shaky and end up nearly being sick :(

    I just wish I was like everyone else, a good housekeeper etc :(
