Okay girls post away on your cleaning plans for the day. Post as often as you like (tea breaks only!!) or as little as you like but let us all know how you're getting on.
My plans for today are DD's room which does not have an inch of floor to walk on that is not covered with stuff, so I shall be sorting, folding, putting away, and removing no longer played with toys down into the cellar, then cleaning it to within an inch of its life.
I know it's Monday, I know you've got no energy, but hey I've had 4 hours sleep and if I can do it so can you

Morning, Moggins!
I'm in. Today is my only totally free day this week, so I'm doing the most important bits:
Downstairs loo - clean sink, mop floor
Kitchen - mop floor
Upstairs loo - clean loo, clean sink, general dust
Paperwork - today's pile to sort (football club money to bank, Awards for All grant application, school accounts to update and distribute)
Hoover hallway
WM - on, washing to hang out to dry
Ironing
Will reward myself with getting out my knitting, and making more muffins!

I'm in, but won't get home from work till about 3:30.
I think i will tackle the hall, stairs and landing as we moved some of the junk that had been stored there while decorating. It hasn't had a good clean in 3 months.
What i will do is sneak in some planning time at work. I will write a list of what i would like to do this week, and see where i can then get with it. After all, my bump is usually what dictates the pace i currently work at.
Good luck while i'm at work. You both should get loads done.
