  • Since I'm up nice and early, thought I'd pop on, say good morning :)

    Have already had a bath and just eating brekkie before rounding up my son to get ready for school!

    Daily list for today:
    shine my sink - got some bleach and window cleaner stuff to do it with - sure I've got bicarb somewhere!
    clear out the 4 drawers in the kitchen
    begin the ironing [strike]pile[/strike] mountain
    file paperwork

    That's all I can think of for now!!

    Catch everyone later :)

  • well inbetween getting dressed and sorting my son out for school I've started the process of the sink shine - fill to the brim with water and some bleach :D Not the fly lady way I know - she likes us to get dressed to our shoes and they're not on as yet!

    Hi to lil_me, I'm finding already that I'm being more productive as I have to update my list on here!

    Right, off for the school run in a tick, by the time I come back I'll be a-shining my sink :D

    Morning all, and hello to Shell and Lil Me.

    Bad day yesterday, combined stress of work, house selling and ill ds1 meant I went to bed without cleaning, and then came down to a dirty mess this morning. Amazing the difference a few minutes cleaning the kitchen at night makes to your mood.

    I have cleaned the bathroom and got all of the house plants standing in some water before they give up all together. Not been online for a couple of days so just catching up with everything. Boys are busy bugging each other so I think we need to go out shortly :rolleyes: .

    DH brought some big boxes home last night - far too big for books so I might make a start on packing up the eaves storage. I bagged it all when I tidied it :A so it should be a quick job.

    Need to do a good general tidy, and have a good fling boogie with anything that is annoying me. Do you think DH would notice if the children and dogs are missing? :D

    sorry to hear you had a bad day yesterday - hope things fare well better today. I've got a stinker of a cold - really bad cough today but I'm plodding onwards! I know what you mean about the cleaning the night before thing - I put all the dishes away last night and going into the kitchen and seeing everything clearer that it has been recently was great! (despite the cold!)

    Also - what's a fling boogie? :confused:
