My home is a mess

Fruball

Well, the panic will be setting in shortly

I have done, precisely, nothing in the living room, hall, stairs, landing etc I have done the kitchen and I didn't want to mess it up and de-motivate myself so drove to McDs to get takeaway for dinner last night :rotfl: Result = tidy kitchen this morning

In just a few moments, the music will go on... loud... and i WILL get everything done :A

I will post my progress here which will hopefully motivate anyone who, like me, needs a good kick up the bum!!!

Get busy, Messies

I have

washed up from last night
clear all gibble/kipple from the worktops - ready for DH to perform some magic on Xmas day

sorted out DD who is going to stay at Nana's for the next 2 days
kippled some phone calls
kipples some post in and out

Now to start something else - need to check my list - where would I be without lists

Hope you are all doing ok

afternoon all, Frugal I laughed at your McDs - that's how I feel about my nice shiny bath, I don't want to spoil it by using it:rotfl: Not going to have time for dekippling (or is it kippling?) or anything else today, going to hopefully finish Xmas shopping in a minute, buying chilled ready meals for tea because I have to shower and get ready to go out tonight, nothing worse than slaving over a hot stove when you've just showered....Wrap present for party lucky dip, and that's going to be it. Pondering whether or not to buy the Xmas bailey's today but I know it would be a mistake, the Xmas chocolate's already gone:o Oh, and DDs are going to their dad's on Saturday - so a quiet Xmas for me!:) Have a good day all xxx

Evening

I'm still really unwell and I am just managing to go to work and then I come home and go straight to sleep so sorry Cat for not answering about the xmas eve hamper and thank you Helen for explaining it in my absence.

I will do my best to keep popping in but I am really struggling atm

Update - living room almost done despite stopping to make a roast for me and the DDs

Dining table almost cleared - no space to put the small pile of stuff still on there so will just move it when we eat. Cushion covers and rug washed and dried. Sewing machine put away until after Xmas. 1 sack of recycling, 1 sack of junk. Pile of carp in corner re-organised. Still lots there but takes up less space. My bedroom will serve as a point of reference so that dear friend can see the effort I have made and so I can see what can actually be achieved when one puts ones mind to it

Not a bad effort but could do better

Got to go to MrT tonight with DDs :eek: to get all the bits for our xmas dinner tomorrow - friend doesn't know I am doing a big meal so will be nice surprise for her - we will have crackers on the table too

Then when DDs are in bed, will dust, vacuum and shove rest of carp in understairs cupboard IF I can get to it:rotfl:

ETA - Sorry to hear your are poorly, Rummer Get well soon x

Rummer - sorry to hear you are still feeling so bad, really hoping that you start to feel better soon - when are you finishing work - do you get much of a break over Xmas
