Juliejim, I hope your HHC was more productive than mine.

I made our bed, put away some dry washing, took towels and tea towels out of WM and hung on line, chatted to someone who came to deliver something here, sorted darks and put in WM for tonight and, um, well not a lot really . Oh, I did take a lovely fresh loaf of bread out of the bread maker.

Bit preoccupied as we're getting our chooks on the weekend and I keep thinking of all the stuff I really don't know and trying to find out answers.

Kids want a snack now and then we're going to go out into the back garden and tidy it up a bit.

Coffee consumed, ready to get showered and get on now. We're out at 12noon to go to the cinema to see The Princess and the Frog so I've got an hour and half to make myself and DD2 look presentable and to try and convince DD1 to change out of the dressing up clothes that my niece who is 2 1/2 years younger passed on for DD2 to wear, not DD1! So she's got a skirt and top on that doesn't cover her midriff and she wants to go out like that at 7 years old! No chance!

Hi everyone - sorry I haven't be around much this week... Been ferrying DD to cinema and doing some of my research in between cooking endless meals... But I'm back to claim a couple of stars, I hope:

Thursday ~ Bathroom, hall, stairs and landing! STAR PLEASE TOOTS!
Level One
[STRIKE]Declutter and vacuum/mop floors
Sort coats, bags, shoes and dead umbrellas!.. Get rid of any that are no longer needed.[/STRIKE]
Level Two
[STRIKE]Clean the bath, sinks, blah blah.. you know the list! don't forget the back of the toilet.. that gets gross.. and under the icky rim!
Empty out and clean a cupboard.. put back the necessaries neat and tidy!
Wash doormats, bathmats and shower curtains[/STRIKE]
Level Three
[STRIKE]Tidy the towel cupboard.. any manky towels can be donated to the PDSA or dog rescue.. they always need them!.. and blankets etc
Wipe the doors in the hallway and wash any curtains[/STRIKE] am trying to shorten the curtains!
[STRIKE]Wipe radiators.. front and back!
Replace any dead sponges/toothbrushes!
[/STRIKE]
Extras

1. Binbag dance

[STRIKE]HH doing something you want to do.. reading or whatever.
Check where the car papers are and see when MOT/insurance/tax are due!.. put them in a file safely!!.. Ditto house insurance papers!
Clean out the upstairs bins.
[/STRIKE]

Friday ~ Chimps rooms!/Spare rooms.. Can I claim the Conservatory instead of the kid's room (or the Sitting Room) this week - as a sort of 'extra' room? We've done such a lot on it this week.
If so, STAR PLEASE TOOTS!
Level One
[STRIKE]Go strip, wash and replace with clean any bedding[/STRIKE] No bedding, but I cleared the table and chairs and dusted them
[STRIKE]Spend half an hour doing something that makes you happy.. and I do NOT want details!! Or else you get mine with full colour graphics![/STRIKE] :D
Level Two
[STRIKE]Rope children in and declutter the floors and quickly vacuum them[/STRIKE] Swept the floors, collected up all the dead leaves and composted them
[STRIKE]Straighten cupboards of clothing/shoes[/STRIKE] Sorted the veggie boxes which we store in here, and emptied the bin. Also sorted the plastic recycling which had been pushed in here; and took loads of things down to the cellar for the e-Bay box.
[STRIKE]Make sure school stuff is ready for next week.. inc. homework done![/STRIKE] Yup: and forms filled in for highly dangerous-looking adventure trip
Level Three
[STRIKE]Tidy up a bookcase or a toy box.. or just a box of junk![/STRIKE] Pruned loads of plants back so we can see the mirrored wall
[STRIKE]Wash any smelly curtains and wash windows[/STRIKE] Washed half the windows (there are loads) which were green (I kid you not). Wiped the woodwork, too. Still got half to go, but this took 2 hours....
[STRIKE]Clean out any pongy pets[/STRIKE] No pets, but I wrestled with a very determined parlour palm and tied it up.
Extras

1. [STRIKE]Go spend some time with your little people.. or big people.. or friends.. or man hunting (greenbee )[/STRIKE] Have played loads of board games this week
2. Binbag dance
3. HHI
4. Spend weekend slobbing!

Hope this is OK, Toots?

Love to all
MissH

Morning everyone
we had a hard frost last night minus 5 but its bright and sunny just now.

MrsChaos hope you have a better day today - could DH go out with the boys alone and leave you to do your bits?
Holly I think I would be telling the GF too - its not fair on her if this is what he is like behind her back - and if he is suicidal then someone needs to know - the burden shouldnt be on you (((hugs)))
soappie no apology needed I have managed fine.
Mumto5 how annoying for DH - sounds like you blitzed DD's room - I hope she keeps it better now and I think its about time you introduced her to Mr Iron:D
shopaholic - sorry cant help with the steam mop - is it worth opening a thread for a discussion?
Jinky enjoy your peaceful days - dont go overdoing the housework and hurting yourself (((hugs)))
hello Aunty:hello: your lists are looking good this week- did you get out ok yesterday in the snow?
Mumof2 glad you are feeling better - take it slowly though (((hugs))) and exciting about the chooks :j- Triker and Penny (I think) have chooks and I am sure there will be a thread somewhere
MissHiggerty well done with the conservatory - juliejim has been attacking hers too - it will be all ready to use in the warmer days - well done to you both:T
Emma you are doing really well with your lists - you are putting us regulars to shame!!!

Ok so far today I have

I finally got myelf in gear and got OH the registration stuff for quack.. see how nice I am lol.. I don' think he was too impressed.

Have I had a list this week?

I have the backroom in dire need of skipping today.. might prod the children into grot shifting then most of he downstairs will be fairly habitable.. I was hoping to focus on emptying my room this weekend without children.. mainly cos I need everything out of it!
