Having the rest of my lunch and a cuppa and by then hopefully the things in TD will be ready to put away.Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170

            Well that's the kitchen floor finished, now drying so having a sit before I do the benches. For those thinking is she mad, why do the floor first ? Simple reason, I've never got round to it recently. It's depressing when you don't get round to one part as everything else is so bad hence why these lists are doing me good, so I don't miss it again! Not nice when you start sticking to parts. Oh and that mop is pants! Daft microfibre thing which looked great but it's useless, go to wring it out and the pad falls off, pah! At least I've used it now, been falling over it for months!
 Hmmmm need to find a little bottle of motivation somewhere ....One day I might be more organised...........

 Just spent an hour in the kitchen, flung a load of junk that was in the under-sink cupboard and washed it out, wiped every surface and everything that got in my way (luckily the dog was in the living room ) and washed all the cupboard doors and kickboards. ) and washed all the cupboard doors and kickboards.
