FFP - sort the laundry while you're getting the first load in. You'll be amazed how much more manageable it'll look if you just tidy it into piles. I do this with laundry, washing up, filing etc... it helps as I then don't feel so overwhelmed. And definitely don't iron it. Where did it all come from anyway?!

Right I will do that when I'm up stairs. The thing is the boys pulled all the clothes out of their drawers looking for something and I wasn't sure what was clean and what was dirty as it had got mixed on the floor, so I'm washing the lot! hence the big clear out we had the other day. I threw out 5 bin bags of clothes out of their room and the wardrobes and chests are full so goodness knows where I'm putting this little lot when it's washed (and not ironed)!

Morning all, really hot and sticky here already. DS2 not liking it much hehe(he's not good in the heat, must fnd his hat and get the suncream on him for creche this afternoon)

Flying wise, tidied round downstairs yesterday, not that you'd know. My darling children decided they were going to get every toy out of the box this morning!!!!
Today I am going to concentrate on getting some of the upstairs sorted, my room isnt to bad(made a start on it on Sunday), but kids room and spare room is a tip!
Need to get some washing done and on the line now.

Morning all

I've done the bedrooms today so I'll claim my star for that when the right day comes round

I did the computer desk/computer stuff yesterday so that's part of today's list done, and I did the lampshades in the bathroom/toilet/landing while I was doing the bedrooms.

I also vacuumed through downstairs, there's only two of us now and it still gets bad every day even when you discount the pet hairs. I'm so clumsy.

Two loads of washing on the line, including my bedding. It rained hard earlier and it's still cloudy so it's a bit cooler so far though humid. A bit of a respite I think.

Hope everyone's OK. Off to catch up with the posts while I wait for my Asda delivery.
