  • My wishlist for tomorrow too:

    1. A general tidy round
    2. Clean the bathroom
    3. Tidy the kids bedroom, sort out drawers and wardrobe, charity, freecycle, ebay any outgrown stuff.
    4. Sort out the black hole, otherwise known as the hall cupboard. Need to be RUTHLESS awith this, as it's full of clutter
    5. The undersink cupboard needs a sort out, again RUTHLESS.

    If I manage all this it will be a flippin' miracle, But a list to kickstart me will help.


    Oh and tip of the day. Next time you are at tesco, grab one of those cardboard wine carriers, with the separate sections in. Great for flying round the house with your cleaning items in the little sections.:D
