I hate ironing so don't do it
so far I have
showered
put towels on to wash
rearranged furniture in nursery (looks bigger now), hoovered and cleaned floor, dusted skirting boards, door frames.
Now have a pile of stuff for ebay and have decluttered loads into storage containers including a duvet & pillows. Off to sort out more of LO's clothes & pop dinner on.A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea
Where does the time go? :think:0 -
Hi All,
My Gran has been very poorly all week (95 Years old today), we've been called in several times and arrive and it looks as though its the final few minutes but she keeps hanging on, its horrible to see her suffer and hope that she passes soon so she can get some peace at last. Therefore my list is perhaps not great this week and doubt that level 3 will be achieved even after today's cleaning efforts.
Good luck to everyone else, and well done to those who have received their stars so far :T

Hello,
been lurking but not posting but am now pleased to report I have managed all 5 Stars!!! So pleased, the house looks lovely, just need to keep up with my dailies and the lists should be easy to do.
I have also started clearing out the conservatory/outhouse, just got to wait for the rain to stop so I can get into the garden to clear up out there! Really want spring to come now.
Hugs to all that need them!
