    I CAN'T GET TO SLEEP!!!!!

    On here when I should be sleeping but I am wide awake, not awake enough to do any cleaning mind! Been looking for a nice table/desk for my laptop as sick of it sitting on my (clean) coffee table or my knee, where it is just now! Any ideas? Been looking in Argos and seen a nice one but it's £70+, will have to keep looking I guess. Gonna log off now and try and get to sleep, nite all x

    OK my challenge is huge. We are planningon putting our house on the amrket next week sothe great de-clutter has started.

    My hubby and I are both real hoarders and have been inthis house for ten years. We are now downsizing so its got to go.

    we are hoping to drastically reduce our mortgage in the process. Fingers crossed.

    Here is my itinery for the rest fo the week.

    Wednesday -

    Kitchen:

    Srub floor and cabinet doors
    empty at least three drawers and chuck out at least a bag full of stuff.
    Oven is done so its the sides that need attention

    what do you think I do finish a 12 hours night shift at 7am

    Morning all

    Chunky what a gorgeous girl you have there. I also love the flowers

    Welcome AndrinaP - I would advise you start with baby steps that way you won't get disheartened. How about a target of one drawer - then if you do extra it's a bonus

    HollyH - how are you this morning?

    And Toots, my lovely - how's you too?
