    Go me, the bathroom window has been astonished and bleached with old toothbrushes and all. I cannot tell you how filthy it was (in the openning bits which are outside).

    Yes I hated every minute of doing it, apart from the final drying of it but I am so pleased it is done :T

    Plan will be each day to do one of the 'cleaning' jobs, ones of the paperwork ones and one of the sorting ones.

    Just having lunch now and then my treat half hour with a gardening book!

    Decluttering junk and debt in 2016
    Debts - Vanquis £3500 1/1/16; DFD - when I'm dead with £100,000,000+ interest :eek: UPDATED Feb 2016 £2739.80; DFD June 2016 :j
    Next - £1500 1/1/16 DFD about 10 years time. UPDATED Feb 2016 £1371.16; DFD July 2016 :j
    THE GOAL IS TO HAVE NO DEBT BY THE END OF 2016
  • Have made a good start on kitchen, 2 cupboards sorted, floor swept, sides cleared and wiped to within an inch of their life, sink shined (although now full again), hob cleaned, sofa covers now in TD (I seem to remember they take a long time to dry, so waiting a while before starting the next lot), crockery and mugs sorted, broken ones thrown and a few mugs added to my freecycle lot although no-one's interested...
    Feeding bub and myself, need to make a shopping list and then pop to Mr T, then S&S LR and put some laundry away.
    Exhausted already...
    So, there are these boys,
    They kinda stole my heart,
    They call me Mummy


    WW 37lb (2 STONE 9lbs! :j ) lost since July, 11tybillion to go...

    4th week of the new school term and I still haven't had a week without one of the children at home. This time it's DS2's turn with a chest infection.

    DH is in a foul mood because someone hit his car on Saturday morning. He's got a hire car now but it's a little Fiesta. He has to drive to Southampton tomorrow and can't fit all his work stuff in the boot. he's trying via 101 phone calls to get an upgrade to a comparable car to his own. It's like trying to pull teeth. I'm not happy at him driving 300 miles in a little car so I hope it gets sorted today.

    I've been ironing all morning and the end is nowhere near in sight.... more steam needed......
