    Manic Monday ~ Kitchen & Dining Room:j


    Darn it... I thought Id be first today!!:rotfl:

    toots... STAR FOR TODAY PLEASE...:j:j:j

    I second the welcome to the newbies... and I am living proof that by following the lists and doing as much as you can, even if you dont complete the lists for the 1st few weeks, it isn't long before you see a HUGE difference!!!

    Todays extra tasks..strip wallpaper in master bedroom reading for painting this week (only one wall so shouldnt take too long) and sort through DD's wardrobe(:eek:) as she has just inherited a load of clothes from her friend!

    Off to do my exercise!! Oh and did a booze free day yesterday!!( I know.. it's like someone else has taken me over!!)

    Keep flying girls!!!

    Mrs B xx

    Oh and hugs and kicks to all who need them, of course!! xx
    :rotfl:If you have made someone laugh today... check your skirt isn't tucked into your knickers!!!:rotfl:
    Mrs B you're a legend.

    It felt a bit of a waste of time as I will have to wipe through and hoover again after the plasterer has been but it will make it easier later. For the first time in a year, from tomorrow I will be able to mop the kitchen floor again, I am looking forward to having flooring down.

  • Morning All :hello:

    I've a busy day today. DD1's school is closed today, so we're running round getting tasks done.

    I'm aiming for a list completion today. - well, I did say aiming!!!

    Diva :D glad to be of service. I had a fun night too. It was my last blow out for a good while so I'm glad it was fun. ;)

    Toots squeezes angel. Hope you're well.

    Lell it will eventually get easier. I know it doesn't seem like that now. How about trying tasks in different rooms? Also there's a book called Siblings Without Rivalry which is really useful. I make it worse for them if they involve me, than if they'd tried to resolve it themselves. Mine are older, but I've always used that approach. All the best with it lovie! :D

    Just stopped from my 9.15! I decided to do a deep clean and re-arrange on the kitchen rather than just the list so nowhere near done. Just stopped for a coffee and then back to it.

    Lots of cobwebs which reminded me has anyone heard from Greenbee? Is it this week she starts her new job?

    Lell - my boys are 16 months apart and it can be very grim at times although it is getting much easier. I buy two of everything if I can, and same as Sarah they always regret coming to me to sort the problem out, or shrieking loud enough to attract my attention.
