progress report

spare room almost all packed up havent dusted the skirting boards and stuff as will do that when the room is emptied.

have packed most of my ornaments, pics and candles from the front room, it is looking really bare and am almost out of boxes and need more OH has been helping lots and has been doing most of the lifting and shifting as i am not willing to risk my back going again so no worries on that score.

OH is currently cleaning the kitchen and doing some dishes and im having a sit down and will then do the living room windows.

LW just take it very very easy today and if you want to sit and have a cry then do so, sometimes its really theraputic xx

Half hour done - thanks for joining me JulieJim. How much did you manage to do?

I’ve crossed a few things off the list. Here's what I have left to do:


Monday - Sitting Room and Hallway

Sort out coats, shoes and bags.. can those winter coats be washed and put away/charity shopped/ebayed?
Clean any electricals.. don't be frazzling yourselves though!
Wipe sofas, paintwork and dusty places
HHC in the hallway.. vacuum floors/stairs, wipe paintwork, fling those broken umbrellas and junk mail!
Catch up on some calls/emails
Binbag dance... grab a bag fill it and fling it!

I have also – moved poorly cat up stairs whilst I hoovered and then resettled into cage in the living room (he had an operation last week and will be in his cage for a little while yet)and fed the baby as she was hungry.

I'm going to attmept to move some of the rubbish from the hallway now although baby isn't that settled.

I have done 4x wm, 1 load on whirley, 1 on airer & 2 of towels in td. Whirley emptied as sky has gone dull. Delivered mum's clean duvet cover back to her. Took DS1 to ice skating lesson and managed to get DS2 on the course from tomorrow. Had my foot appointment and have now got some insoles to wear that feel like havinghalf tennis ball in each shoe.

I need to get going or I will fall asleep shortly. Anyone doing a HHC name the time?

I may have to move rooms though as DS1 has a friend around and teens seem to take up so much room.

Hubby is buying me a dyson, ill miss henry though...not sure what to do with him

gardening for the day is done...not sure what else off my list ill look for it in a min

pigpen

dysons are crap.. I binned mine after never being able to use it because it never sucked anything up! .. sorry to burst OH's bubble! As for Henry.. I'd keep him.. he probably still works better than the dyson will after the first week!

Off to Tesco... 5 children here that aren't mine.. as well as my 9.. it is insane...

thinking of maybe popping to m/care/TrU/M&P to check heights on pushchairs for his shortness lol.. and then running to BnQ... Living the dream I am!

kazmeister

Few more things decluttered form list. DD not sure about the room theme, perhaps I should decorate with pics of Stig of the dump then (Pigpen will know what I mean on that one) lol, sha can have all the carp she wants in there then.
