Busy yesterday, I finally realised that there were only seven weekend days till we move, and I can only get some things done when OH is home. Spent a couple of hours in the utility and pantry, cleaning, sorting, binning. Big bag of small clothes ready for freecycle, and another two black bags of rubbish to go. Couple of hours tidying the garage. As predicted I cracked and did it, he refuses to bin anything. Still need him to go through and sort the tools but I have chucked the worst of the rubbish.
I think I need to be doing an hour a day on de-clutter and tidy just to make sure when I do start packing everything we are taking is loved or needed.'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0 -
Morning FLYbabes & FLYboy. Night Denise - hope you get a better night's sleep tonight.
Bulchy - I'm looking out for your list today but keep it small as you're just a beginner and you'll get too overwhelmed otherwise. Even those of us that have been FLYing for a while have to get back to basics sometimes when we fall off the wagon!
Rebl - wonderful that your OH was playing the last post, regardless of whether he was on the TV or not.
Sarahsaver - paying the kids to FLY, now there's a great idea....!
DH away AGAIN this week so need to get in control of my home. Got a card/book party tonight so need to prepare for that.
To do:
Make beds (probably need to strip DS bed as wet again :mad: )
S&S ensuite / bathroom / toilet
Laundry wash (probably about 3 or 4 but I'll aim for 1)
Iron bedding & 1 laundry wash
15 mins each room
CLEAN THE KITCHEN FLOOR :eek:
Finish Xmas card list as need to know how many cards left to order
Hoover downstairs
Chase mum's present
There are other things I probably need to do but I'll add them as they come up.
Have a good day everyone.

Most of the other stuff done though.. just another 24 odd socks to throw in the basket of odd socks!
It is quite satisfying to rub along the murky crevices of the stair carpet with a damp sock on your hand, and see just how much dust you pick up:) Much more visible difference than hoovering IMHO.
