    Exactly Penny Pincher, easy peasy isn't it!

    Yay thanks Moggins that's what I need, a big blue kick up the backside :rotfl: Thanks serena, things can only get better as they say! DPs brother kipping on the sofa so he'll be getting an early morning wake up call, hang over or not! I'll have al the bedding to shift back upstairs etc aswell. I'll add Mogins list to my own ever increasing one for tomorrow and post it tomorrow morning :) (or tonight if I finish it)

    I have sort of done some of tomorrows, but the lazy way :o, round the sofas instead of under them so will drag them all out tomorrow. I have actually mopped then sat with my feet up on here since so I don't mucky it at all :rotfl:
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Dishwasher loaded, grill washed up, worktops cleaned, sink shined, sandwiches made, uniforms assembled, living room tidied. Dry laundry folded and wet stuff put on airer. Just off to put lunchbox in kitchen, place bookbag in hallway and I am all ready for tomorrow. Must find out some smart clothes for tomorrow when I am off to DS's school to find out why some supply teachers are giving him detentions for things which are unfortunately part of his Aspergers.

    Also have to spend the first part of the morning at DD's school to find out why the wicked witch of the west sent my DD home in tears on Friday.

    Lol, [strike]I don't remember this being on Moggins list[/strike]
    Personally I'd still like a daily 'home pc maintenance' fly list, but we need to track down someone knowledgeable to assist on this one!!!
    Thanks to being cheered up by my lovely MSE friends I did finally get flying and I am thrilled to say I have no washing nor ironing!!!!
    I can't recall the last time I was in this situation, and it is lovely (and there shouldn't be washing lurking in the bedrooms either)
    House is fairly ok, so I'm going to have a quick tidy before I go to bed, and hopefully I'll be able to maintain it through the week & get some homework done. I'm so thrilled!
    Thank you Moggins, not just for earlier, but also for giving me extra motivation to keep flying (or trying to). Good luck tomorrow, I'll be thinking of you.
    Hope everyone gets a good nights rest,
    Love

    Edited to say 'thank you Serena :A - I'm working backwards through the thread and only just got to your post'

    Good luck with the school issues Moggins, sounds like you need it, thinking of you ;)

    Oh and thanks for the reminder, book bags and homework bags, something I've not done yet, lunch bag still wet argh!!

    Home PC maintainence, delete what you don't need, run disk clean up regular (I do mine weekly) and Defrag less regular (every 2 months does mine) arrange everything you do need into apporpriate folders then right click in the folder to arrange them neatly (same with desktop) mine are done alphabetically or by type depending what it is. Just done mine tonight, bet DP goes in a strop when he checks the PC as I have 'tidied' all his things away!
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
