this is not a competition - there is no prize except feeling good that you are starting a new year with an empty basket - try to encourage each other - we all want to succeed
dont wait until the week (or day:eek:) before to get started - try to do a little bit as often as you can.

You could all try the TAG method of ironing you know.
15 items ironed everyday. No more, no less;) Valli understands that bit:rotfl:
Only takes 15 to 20 mins.

Hello all!

Hope you're all well! Thanks to Pigpen, Soappie and Toots - you're all brilliant as usual!

I didn't get very far last week, but I need to get organised this week, so I'm back with a vengeance! I didn't do the Christmas organisation last week, so I've added it to my list this week. I'm also co-hosting a jewellery party in 2 1/2 weeks so I need to get on with making some jewellery bits - I got some new beads at the weekend, so making jewellery is going on the list!

Monday~ Kitchen of Grot and Dining Room of Gloom
Level One
Declutter and mop/vacuum the floors
Clear and wipe the worksurfaces
Level Two
Wipe the big appliances and units.. don't forget kickboards!
Wipe small appliances and replace.. do one thoroughly.. descale or decrumb or degunge!
Clear a sticky dishevelled cupboard
Level Three
Wipe the table and replace the cloth if necessary.
Binbag dance!
Clean the oven and hob..
Extras

1. Clean blinds/curtains and light fittings
2. Wash the windows
3. HHI
4. Take a freezer/fridge inventory and see if you can start using it up and making space for christmas goodies!!

My personal list:

1. Write a christmas list.. whether it be cards or presents or just food shopping..
2. Make your christmas plan.. what crafts things do you do? What meals are you cooking and when? What size lumps of meat do you need?
3. Finalise those christmas lists.. Cards, presents, food etc..
4. Make a note of any wrapping paper/cards etc you may need to buy.. don't forget the sticky tape!
5. Make jewellery

hi all

Haven't had chance to catch up (as ever!) and am going to put my feet up and watch Saturday's casualty now but I have done some flying, as well as doing dinner and washing up after (DH had already done the washing up from this morning, he does it every day when he gets in). I've also cooked a small chicken I got yellow stickered for £2 from M&S which sorts tomorrow's dinner (with some yellow stickered carrots and ready prepped veg I got yesterday - a 100% yellow stickered meal ).

Great day today, just one of those days which makes you feel good, despite sleeping badly everything went off well, my colleague has a cold but I've tried to stay as far away from him as possible!

bins need to go out later...did I mention that our wheelie bin got nicked AGAIN?!

my list looks like:

Monday~ Kitchen of Grot and Dining Room of Gloom
Level One
Declutter and mop/vacuum the floors
Clear and wipe the worksurfaces
Level Two
Wipe the big appliances and units.. don't forget kickboards!
Wipe small appliances and replace.. do one thoroughly.. descale or decrumb or degunge!
Clear a sticky dishevelled cupboard
Level Three
Wipe the table and replace the cloth if necessary.
Binbag dance!
Clean the oven and hob..
