I'm in! Was so nice to get up this morning to a clean tidy kitchen! I got in the habit when we first moved in of cleaning up after dinner and getting the kitchen clean ready for the next day, but months of awful morning/noon/night sickness put paid to that and the habit never came back! :rolleyes: Determined to get there again and stay there.

Will post my list and then print it, then OH wants the PC back for his silly AirGun forums... :rolleyes:

I feel all keen and enthusiastic about getting my house clean and tidy this week and re-starting my exercise regime. And not quite so enthusiastic about eating healthily but I will be having chocolate on Wednesday and at the weekend. And not on the other days. I normally have it every day so I feel this is a vast improvement.

I'm in again, please, thank you. Thank you to Pigpen, Soappie and lovely Toots for the thread.

Am I mean - I can't wait for tomorrow morning when kiddies and DH are back at school/work so I can start on the house and get it back to near normality. DH is changing his job in a couple of weeks and that means he'll be working through the school hols from now on - now as much as I love him and I do, I just can't wait for him to have a "normal" job. A job where he will be working 52 wks a year not 39 - and it hopefully will make a difference to his pay packet which is pathetic right now - there should be a law change that makes Teaching Assistants be paid alot more [obviously not the same as Teachers]. Anyway new job soon, more money and working through school hols - marriage made in heaven!!

Right - I'm off to make a start on the list so that I can get ahead of myself for tomorrow as I work in the morning

See you all tomorrow
