Dustykitten, Thanks for HHC It kickstarted me into action this morning.
Monday - Levels 1 & 2 Done
Tuesday - Levels 1 & 2 Done
Wednesday - Levels 1, 2 & 3 Done0 -
Nothing done yesterday - caught up today. Bathrooms done, showerhead cleaned (looks much better without that orange gunge!), family room floor cleaned & ceiling relieved of spider webs.
Trying to feel delighted I've caught up - rather than guilty that I've not (yet) put the loose covers on to wash or cleaned the filters on the Dyson0 -

Thanx, toots. DH is being subliminally involved:rotfl: I've been asking him to chuck out some defunct paperwork even if it's only for 5 minutes. He's such an obliging man!

Just finished removing all the mess I created, so now I can go crack on in the bathroom.

And for those that wanted more info - it's one of them flash wall mounted jobbies :T but it's peeing down so I havent tried it out yet.
Hmmm mebbe I should do a HHC at 3 - I guess most of you folks will be on the school run then"I know that Prince Charming doesn’t come save me, we save each other and fight back to back against all comers that’s what marriage is to me. Nothing passive, no being carried off on a white steed, give me my own damn horse and lets ride into the sunset side by side." - Laurell K. Hamilton.0 -
paulies_nixie I'll join you in the HHC as I still need to get some ironing done and the kitchen needs a quick once over after OH has been frying bacon.
Cat_smith :T well done on getting the new client"Let your boat of life be light, pack only what you need- A homely home and simple pleasures,one or two friends worth the name, someone to love and someone who loves you, a cat, a dog, a pipe or two enough to eat, enough to wear and a little more than enough to drink, as thirst is a dangerous thing" Jerome k.

Hi, can I join you all!! I have no motivation when it comes to housework, (or diets!!) and just seem to stumble around and do bit's and pieces
All I seem to keep on top of is the washing!
I don't have much time really, I have 2 1/2 hours every morning while DS is at nursery, which is more like 2 hours once i've taken him and picked him and and oh, done a bit of shopping on the way back!
I go playgroup (for chat as DS at nursery- lol) on a weds morning, so ALL other morning's are so called 'free'! Obviously afternoons get taken up with looking after DS and preparing dinner.
I also work in the evening (Cleaning :rotfl:) for 2hours and get home around 7pm, which is when I like to switch off, and enjoy the peace.
I also Have a DH and 12yr old DD to look after:money::money::money::money:
I love to save money0
