Moggins list
Todays mission is to get ready for Monday. Uniforms washed and ironed, clothes ready for work, at least two meals ready cooked and in the freezer.
Have HM Burgers and Nuggets in Freezer (made today), Leek and Chicken Pie and Lasagnas. Only one little at nursery so no uniforms to do. DHs got 2 shirts that need ironing for next week. ALL DONE
Hoover the hall, stairs and landing - will be done first thing along with bedrooms (did stairs yesterday) ALL DONE
Night time routines, make sure that living room is neat and tidy to come down to on Sunday morning.
Dailies
Put wash on Done
Hoover EVERYWHERE!!!! Done
Dust EVERYWHERE!!!! Done
Do bathrooms and loos Done
Polish mirrors Done
Shine the sinks Done
Fluff pillows Done
Hang washing out Done Xtra pegs as very windy
Little ones have gone off to Grannies for the day and its my weekend off work so am feeling a bit lost to be honest. DH says I should sit down, go for a bath, relax. However, I think I may go put the weed killer down, tackle the half basket of ironing and have a tidy round in the garden. Not sure I know how to relax - am I weird
Viewing seemed to go ok, we had an offer this morning from a couple who viewed on Monday :j but they have a property to sell so not ideal but at least now we know there is interest:T
It only took me about an hour to do the whole house top to bottom because I am on top of everything, it was a pleasure to do it :A
Well gonna have a flick round for a while and then go get some more jobs done.
Enjoy your weekends everyone - after the weeks flying we have done we deserve it.:T0 -
Fed up! Was really pleased as I had managed to put up a load of washing outside today - bright sunshine, not a cloud in the sky, but a bit of wind - perfect I thought to myself, it should be dry in a couple of hours. Well, I'd been in for 5 minutes, when my neighbour knocked on the door to tell me it was pouring down with rain. She helped me get it all in, and have just loaded up the TD - guess what? It's sunny again!!!Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170

exactly same thing here but no nice neighbour to help!!0 -
I've spent most of the day on here reading up on how to make money without going out to work :rolleyes: All I need to do now is put some ideas into action
Not planning on doing anything else except change the bed and put another load of washing on hangers to dry - I'm not risking putting it out as its just too windy here :eek:
Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
Hi everyone, I've been catching up on jobs today. I have managed to keep on top of dailies this week but I also worked an extra day and longer than normal so that put everything behind. I've done kitchen, top to bottom, living room has been done and I'm tackling the hallway next as that has a few things lying there which should have been put where they belong x0
