Hi all
Thanks for the thread.
Last week I fell off the flying wagon. That's two in a row. Not this week for sure.
Makes me much happier if I fly as it means I have a list and can tick stuff off. Had a HHE this morning by mistake when I went to take DD to school and my car wouldn't work
Off to write out my list, tick off what I've done and crack on with the rest before DH comes home for his half day :T

In my HHC I cleaned all the dishes (including yesterday's
) put the recycling out, swept the floor, I also had the DSs tidy the livingroom, vacuum the stairs and the livingroom, hall and downstairs loo! :j
Who's up for another HHC at 11 o'clock?It's what is inside your head that matters in life - not what's outside your windowEvery worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle and a victory. - Ghandi0 -
I've managed to gut and clean out the bread, baking and food cupboard. It's looking loads better now and i can finally see what i have.
Dora hope you and the little ones are feeling better soon.

Morning all
I'll just have to be down as a lurker this week I think. The old kitchen is all ripped out, new ceiling and plastering done and some of the electrics. In the living room I've got an oven, a fridge freezer and a washing machine and a dining room table and chairs. As well as the normal 3 piece suite etc. The back bedroom is full of the stuff from the kitchen cupboards. The little bedroom has the furniture piled up one end for the floorboards to be taken up for the electrics. There is a single mattress, a headboard and a stool in our bedroom.
No washing machine available, might do some hand washing tomorrow. I made sure I brought home clean wet washing on Saturday from holiday and dried that when we got home so I haven't got a huge backlog.
I should be able to do the bathroom/toilet this week but that may be all.0 -

I'm in again this week. So far have spent 2 hours in the garden - it's an absolute wilderness as 'we' haven't done anything with it since we moved in. So far, I have cleared a spot so that we can grow some vegetables, weeded, and pruned back the shrubs. There's still loads to do, but I'm doing it in stages - 1-2 hours a day, weather permitting. I'm so fed up with being embarrassed by the state of the garden.
I've also done most of my dailies, made bread rolls, prepared for my meeting tonight, written a shopping list and had a cuppa!
Next, I've got to clear the hallway and landing, clean the bathroom and venture into OHs office (he's offsite today!). He's got a client coming tomorrow and I need to make it look reasonable-ish. The place needs hoovering as well, so I'm hoping I can do that before I have to pack up the car.
I've had a look at the list, and hope I can at least do some of that today!
Hope everyone is well?
Take care
D

Running to catch up with Jackie in a moment, but I'll do the full half hour. Last time I bleached the sink, cleaned the hob, wiped top of fridge and cleaned trays, more washing out and WM started again, sorted some clean clothes into iron/non-iron, poored some stuff down outside drain to unblock it and put a few things away in the kitchen.
Would love to say that I can see a difference already...:o
Hope you're all better soon, dorastar!
DS2 has started on his first tidying job and I'd best get going, too.0
