Ooooh I got a bit muddled and thought Bedroom was Tuesdays job so I got a bit muddled - happily sorting the lounge at the moment Bedroom will be done tomorrow - I'm sure there is a carpet under there somewhere.

Many thanks for the birthday wishes whether here or on facebook, I have been spoilt by OH, girls, DB & SIL - new watch and a lovelinks chain and beads - heres hoping life really does begin at 40.....

Flying wise well yesterday the kitchen was cleaned to within an inch of its life dont think I have ever had all cupboards and appliances, worktops and floor all so shiny at the same time.

Living room has been decluttered after work but will finish that tomorrow and will tackle the mess that is the bedroom over the next couple of days.

anwmum - was that a basket for your ironing that you have uncovered.:rotfl::rotfl:
embb - hope you get your car back soon and that its not too costly.
pigpen - teeth :eek: hope he is back ok and not too drugged up


Okay girls in bed and OH just appeared with a glass of wine so off to find some rubbish on the tv.

Ive just decluttered some money but in a good way. Ive just paid off my loan :j:j:j so only the car loan to pay off in the next few months from joint finances, so almost debt free as my overdraft and credit card will be cleared by year end :j

Happy Birthday Jjef! Sounds like your day was a good one!

DH and the 3 eldest are out watching Orient v Brighton. There is wild excitment about the forthcoming FA cup 5th round tie when Orient entertain Arsenal.

Little ones are tucked up in bed. Kitchen has been S/S and I've reloaded the DW and done 2 x WM. There is a load in the TD.

Good night

Since we got in Miss A has helped me put DH's clothes in the loft, whilst I was up there I threw down a load of baby clothes which we have sorted and given half to th new baby next door along with a card and present. The other half have been sorted for a little girl and a couple of things have been kept by Miss A.

we now have an empty box, a plastic crate and an ironing basket spare will use then on a temporary basis whilst we are restoring order to the rest of the house. The idea is that chaos is contained within these whilst it is getting sorted.

Going to spend 30 mins with W and his new Star Wars lego, Miss A is doing some maths revision for mock SATS and then it will be time for dinner.

what are you on and can I have some - you certainly are getting stuck into the decluttering and sorting of the CHAOs - well done angel:T

:eek::eek: Are you toots in disguise???

*wanders off mutter oh flip I'd better get on with the ironing*

and since when did I become a baddie around here - I am in the cream puff now!!!:p

I have decluttered 358 emails, a pile of receipts and various other useless bits of paper, had 2 phone calls, and generally trying to sort out hotspots of paper!
