    Healing thoughts for your GD Embb she will be back causing chaos in no time :)

    Right today Me and DH have gone mental. Not only have we sorted our RoD so that everything has a place and now it's in it :j- needs a good hoover but it's as decluttered as its gonna get without buying a new bookcase (tempted the old one is falling apart!)
    Got all my craft bits and bobs into the cupboard apart from the sewing machine :j

    But we emptied all the wardrobes. The draws and attacked the laundry mountain. It was a clothes massacre!

    Sorted into Charity shop. Attic for future use. and What we wear now.
    OMG:eek: the extra big black bin bags bought for the purpose - well two of them are toooooo heavy to lift with charity shop stuff!!!
    mostly things in a size 10 (Like I've ever gonna see that again!)
    One HUGE bag for the attic and everything else actually fits in the draws and the wardrobe. Heck we even removed the storage boxes from under the bed! Clothes emptied and sorted!

    Storage boxes can be used for further decluttering in the garage - but not this weekend :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    You ladies have a [STRIKE]good[/STRIKE] bad influence on me! I mean c'mon, cleaning?? on a weekend?? :T
    Good on yer gel :T
    Happy Birthday maybemischief.


    Embb hugs and healing prayers.

    Hello All.

    I am back from holiday and will join in next week. This weekend is devoted to washing, drying, ironing and teaching my children to. help out a bit! They are pretty good (making beds, tidying toys - well DS1 is brilliant anyway). I am now trying to teach them to dry the dishes. They are 6 and 5 years old which I think is a good time to try as they are still keen to join in. DS2 who is 3 is not interested in anything so I am starting with dressing himself and going to the loo on his own. It seems in this house I do everything and it is driving me nuts. I am training future husbands. I have given up on my own.

    Hugs and spoons to all. Sorry if I have missed anything while AWOL. x

    Triker you're right, your health is worth so much more, have you got something in mind?

    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
