Blimey Blade!!! What are you taking? I could really do with some.....
Woke fairly early this morning (6:45ish - it's early for me!) and didn't feel as tired as I have been, so "upp'd" and "on'd" in my jamies (if I shower the whole house gets up...)
By 10 I'd blitzed the kitchen (tidy and wipe down), ingredients in B/M restored order to my bedroom and the bathroom (plus swish and swipe) as well as the normal shower/school run things. Just returned from nice longish walk with son and Dog, washing machine finishing first load - second load waiting to go in.
Had I not done the challenge last week I know I would be in a right tiz this week.
I know I've got to get some paperwork sorted today and some shopping bought, so those will be my priorities. Next on hit list is to F/L my medicines/first aid stuff, then my 'ingredients' cupboard as I spend a lot of time rummaging through these.
My aim is to have got everything to a standard I'm 'happy' with by September and also have a routine in place by then as I'm going to be doing a course in holistic therapies. I believe that we practice on each other a fair bit so the 'pampering' shoud be well taken care of

:j I just finished my bedroom.
Well, almost
Cleaned & sorted everything except wardrobe. I'm going to do that after I've picked the girls up from school.
I've also done a quick clean of the bathroom & ensuite to keep on top of thingsSometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold...But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow...0 -
I don't mind telling you, I'm jiggered. I started the FL challenge on Friday, the kitchen alone took 3 hours, day off on Saturday, a wee bit on Sunday, I started at 8.00am on Monday and finished at 10.00pm last night to watch the penalites being taken, done a wee bit more today, and I have the study left to do, once the OH has painted it at the weekend, the garage, the loft and the garden, I feel very pleased with myself and have enjoyed making my wee house into a clean and welcoming home, the OH is concerned that I am getting the house ready to put on the market, as my house is only ever tidy and sparkling when I want to sell.
I can't thank Moggins enough for inspiring me to get started, it was long over due, I'm off to soak in my sparkling bath with candle lights.(on second thoughts maybe I won't, I'll have to re-clean it!)

I have now tidied hallway and stairs.:j I know its a big area but for somewhere that is not actually a 'room' it took ages to sort out. Still being home to the pushchair:rolleyes: contributes to making it cluttered. Landing I am doing as part of upstairs as all doors and loft hatch need a good washing down. Bags are still cluttering dining room as I am going to tackle bedrooms over next few days. We have architect coming in morning though so DH needs to help me [STRIKE]hide everything under the beds[/STRIKE] make the bedrooms look respectable.0 -
