I'm sure moggins will be along soon to tell you that 'feeling guilty' is not allowed.
You do what you can and join in again when your OH is feeling better.

Will be going out as soon as ive hung up my bedding, so any other jobs will be done this afternoon, once we get home. My plan, is the bedrooms today!!!!

I'm here to say that feeling guilty is definitely not allowed when you have sick people to look after. After all, you have already said you are keeping on top of the dailies and a few other things, so you are still achieving even when you think you aren't

Hi gang. Having good day so far. Actually managed to get up when the alarm went off. Hubby was surprised to see me have shower AND get dressed before he went to work!
I spent some time yesterday making up different A4 charts so I could print them off.
Have got one each of -

• Daily Tasks - covers all 7 days and includes nighttime routine
• Monthly Calendar (so I can organise one HUGE task each month)
• Blank Shopping List - added to on daily basis
• Detailed tick sheet for each room listing ALL chores
• And one page called 'MOGGINS LIST' in case she throws me a curve ball and suggests something I havent thought of. (you know you will!)

So with the help of my new charts, here's my list for today:-

• [STRIKE]Get up with alarm[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Make bed[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Shower[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Dress to shoes[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Fill washing machine[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Check/feed brids[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]30 minutes paperwork [/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]27 fling boogie[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Tackle one hotspot[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Put any dry clothes away (I dry them on the hangers, so NO IRONING!)[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Put clothes out to dry[/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]General tidy up of rooms [/STRIKE]
• [STRIKE]Hoover right through[/STRIKE]
• Enjoy rest of day until...doing that now
• Nighttime routine.

See you later. Hope everyone has a good day.

Good morning everyone,

Only just up, I was so tired after all that cleaning, I slept like a log...

Coming down to a clean tidy kitchen and mopped floor (apart from some muddy doggy foot prints, which I quickly wiped away, I must be houseproud!!)
is a wonderful feeling and brought a smile on my face

And a clean living room as well, no glasses still on the coffee table. It all seems too simple, why didn't I do all this before? Lack of insight, support and motivation I suppose.

Today

Iron uniforms
post parcel for niece
make pizza dough
make menu for next week
make shopping list for next week
hoover living room
swish and swipe bathroom

try and attempt some filing and shredding, I have a whole shoebox full of paperwork that needs to be looked through and filed or shredded, maybe do it in front of tv tonight.

Moggins list

Wiped wooden stairs yesterday, must could do with an everyday wipe as the dog hair collects there.

Make lentil soup to eat and freeze in SC.

Make a dailly list and laminate, hang inside kitchen cupboard.

Have a great Saturday Flying...

Afternoon all :hello:

DD woke me at 8.14 asking me to put up the highchair for her doll :rolleyes: Couldn't get back to sleep so I ended up getting up at 9am and I sat here at the computer until 11.30 (minus washing my hair and making breakfast) reading up on ways to make money without going out to work. Last night OH asked me to get a part-time job and I said I didn't want to go out to work, I want to be a SAHM but I was going to make more of an effort to earn money this year and make cut-backs without it showing...I also pointed out that he should have somewhere around £100 a month "free" money to play with in his account whereas he is £200 overdrawn and has been since March and that kind of shut him up :rotfl: Sooo this morning I've been looking at handmade cards on ebay seeing what sort of money they go for. About to have a look at ebooks now as I'm sure I could probably come up with a few myself

I was planning on having a "not doing my dailies to show OH just how much I do each day" day...but now I'm not going to do that now I've looked at this thread. While sitting here I'm already planning on tidying up the livingroom, swish/swiping the bathroom (Kitchen is OH's domain when it comes to cleaning and dishes of a weekend :rolleyes: ) and stripping our bed now I've had a bath.

OH and DD have gone out shopping for my birthday pressies, apparently they've only gone to Asda but that was nearly an hour ago and it's only down the road (less than 5 mins in the car) and they're still not back
Me thinks they may be upto something :rotfl:

Right, off to tidy off the coffeetable and desk, fill in the Radio Surveys I forgot to do yesterday and then I'm looking at ebay. OH can do the kitchen! Oh, and I'll need to put the washing out as well...need to check the weather forcast, especially the wind speed...anything over 10mph and I'm likely to loose the washing to next door!

Later :wave:
