:xmastree: I'm back in, if i can be re-added to the list please lady pigpen.

1st day at home with the kids, so i will probably think it is Tuesday all day as Monday is normally a day of peace for me. Between acting as referree and trying to stop the house getting any worse than it currently is, i will try to do something off the list.


Manic Monday ~ Living Room, Hall and Stairs
Level 1
Vacuum floors and sofas
Wipe and water plants
Level 2
Dusting, even if around everything
Remove clutter making sure stairs especially are safe
Clean TV, other electricals and cabinets
Level 3
Wipe light switches, sockets (make sure they are not switched on!!) and banister
Clean any other glass like mirrors, pictures etc
Tidy shoes, coats and bags .. Sort through a handbag
Extra

1. Paperwork clearance.. spend 15 minutes minimum sorting through those piles of paper.
2. Vacuum under furniture you can manage to move without hurting yourself
3. Clean a window or two.
4. Binbag dance

Also, i could do with:

• booking cattery for our short break in october
• [STRIKE]posting a letter for DH and my dad[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]paying a cheque into the bank[/STRIKE]
• remaking DS1's bed as it was wet this morning.
• hang up load of wet washing on airer later - too grey for outside drying today.
• [STRIKE]try to take kids either to park[/STRIKE] or to feed ducks with old bread

So far today i have fed us all, and the cats. Got us all dressed. Collected up all the dark washing and got that in the WM. Given the kids a snack. Dealt with a few tantrums, one number 2 accident and several tumbles from a very wobbly on his feet DS2.

They are currently playing happily with balloons from a birthday party last Saturday, but i need to try and motivate DS1 to leave the house. Will report back later what i manage, but whatever i will be happy as it will be more than the past few months unless DH has done it.

Aj I always wipe the plants with a piece of damp kitchen roll, I hold the tip of the leave and wipe from the stem leave towards me, if that makes sense.

As a kid my mother used to make me use a piece of cotton wool, with a milky like substance on it, I think it was a leaf shine from someone like babybio.

Thanks for the ideas.

I think the oven cleaning may take me all day, but hopefully it will be worth it.
