  • :xmastree: have a tree so that your noticed and get a welcome pm, toots will send you a message explaining the basics :D

    pigpen puts the monday to friday list on post 1 each night in advance and we aim to get it completed, but start small and dont beat yourself up if you cant do it all as it takes time to get messy and time to get clean. 4 - 6 weeks seems to be the timeframe when it gets much easier as lots of the deep cleaning is done in the first few weeks and after that its just maintenance.

    Thanks sea-farer - lovely tree! Great start to the day - up til 3.30am then woke at 10.30 and just lost an hour on here while still in bed. Still, that does mean the new diet hasn't gone to pot yet :rotfl:

    I'll look at the list and put mine up later. See you x

    Am starting a bit late today as got myself in a kerfuffle this morning getting up late and then really shouting at DD :( I felt really bad, so took the dog for a long walk to try to put things into perspective. I don't think I will feel better until I see her after school, so will crack on with my cleaning so i can make cakes with her later :)

  • Morning all, I'm in again this week. I hope everyone is well and happy. Thanks as always to FCC for the lists and everyone for the motivation!
    It's absolutely chucking it down here today. Kids at school & nursery, OH out doing errands so nice and peaceful at the moment.
    I've had some good feedback from the assignments I've submitted for my course which I'm pleased about. It's given me a little more motivation to finish the next assignment which is about a month overdue!
    I have a wardrobe being delivered tommorow morning so todays main job is to sort out the bedrooms I need to move 2 cupboards into the childrens rooms and have a genaral tidy up in our room ready to build the wardrobe.
    Love & hugs. X
