My home is a mess

Hello Messy Peeps,
I am mega impressed with all the folks who are now joining this cluttered band - and how well everyone is doing.
My house is a guddle again - it isnt so much that I am bad at doing jobs, it is that when I am not tidying I am messing things up. Everything that was done at the weekend needs done again (apart from the wardrobe stuff).
So plan for tonight is : dishes and wipe round kitchen (possibly hoover), tidy and recycle from the cr*p in the living room and put clothes away! Possibly an hours work but hey - Im pooped so all I can do is what I can do.
Well done everyone again - this wee bits n pieces works well so I am off to check the TV guide and see what is on when and when I can do my wee tasks.

Very important job, must do it too
I managed to climb 1/3 of the ironing mountain. I usually don't have that much to iron. It is just that I had a huuuuuge back log of bed linen and I like ironing the linen, especially when I don't use it very often (linen for guest bed)
My linen cupboard is the only tidy place in the house, I have developed OCD when it comes to putting stuff away in there

Well i didn't get the whole of the garden done today so i'm a bit disapointed about that
BUT it does look alot tidier
. Once the girls (my chickens) have gone to bed i will sweep up thier food that they take out of the hen dish thingy and if i'm up to it i might empty, wash and refil there water trough (sp*).
I did clean & hoover the stairs and the landing and i also cleaned out the clutter from my handbag so now i can actually find things in it :rotfl:.
All in all not to bad a day but i would like to have got more done, but hey, baby steps it is for me and that works better :j:j.
I've not got it straight in my head yet what i am going to do for tomorrow so i best get my thinking cap on:eek:.
Keep up all the good work everyone :A.

Princess skint a lot, I loooooove making list and plan, etc. But when it comes to housework, I find that sometimes, it is just best to go with the flow (like I said to rigsby
) :j 0 -

Haha, so maybe have a very tiny list of things and then see if you can add to it
I find that if I plan too many chores, I don't do them
I really don't know how I can find the self discipline to study on my own and yet I can't discipline myself to do the housework
