Morning all
Working from home today so will try and get some bits of flying done whilst I'm here. Beds really need changing and I have an urge to wash all the net curtains, but it's not really the day for it (pouring down!)
Must get a good amount of work done, am just so tired today!Mum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -
In my HHC I've:
Took recycling out
Put rubbish out
Put dishes away
Sorted glasses cupboard
Washed more dishes
Cleaned sink
Wiped oven and hob
Loaded WM
Now I'm thinking I'll peel the veg and that for tea as then the peelings can go in the recycling before the bin gets emptied today - rather than sitting there for another 2 weeks.NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

Mumto5 - hope all is ok today. Delete the person on FB so you don't have to waste your energy on their rubbish.
In laws visit later, and we are still in PJs and not had breakfast so i think i should get on a bit. I also need a shower and to wash my hair.0 -

I've had my friend and his 10 year old son staying with me since last Friday and they leave tomorrow so my all girl household.... well me and my 4 year old daughter have had messy boys about the place but have got them making sure the clutter is put away and have still kept up with the list, albeit just level 1!! They thought I was mad but I can tell they appreciate the tidiness and knowing where things are for once.
After this week once they've gone then will try to do a bit more from the list each day.0
