DeniseNZ.. she either likes you a lot, or hates you a LOT!!! lol I'd have a power cut for a few days if I were you lol
Cos today is the kitchen and bathroom! Plus toilet if you have a separate one like me.
Empty worktops and clean them, put stuff back after giving everything a good wipe over. Clean cooker and OVEN!!! wipe down cupboard doors, hoover and mop floor. Clean fridge and chuck anything that is turning GREEN! .. told you before mopping is mans work!! I can't even see most of the floor because the washing from the weekend is STILL threatening to engulf us all. Cooker top is clean.. oven is 'self cleaning' and I'd hate to interfere with the marvellous job it does!! *grin* doors and hob I can do.. worksurfaces I can try!! I really need to do the crumby bit round the toaster and bread machines.. we need a flock of starlings on there it is covered in bread crumbs
Clean bath, sink, tiles, mirrors, skirting boards and doors, shine taps, find 5 out of date bits of makeup or toiletries to chuck out. Clean bog! bath needs doing, I neglected that last time because I got so engrossed in cleaning the loo I ran out of time. I was just looking at the floor in the loo while peeing earlier and thought it could do with a swish over.. you must have heard me! There is no make-up in there because noone wears it and the toiletries are all new ones bought for christmas. I may find a dozen empty razor packets and a few empty bottles or almost empty I can pour into one. Can't clean the mirror either, I pulled it off the wasll last week so am banned from touching it until DH has had time to fix it back on the wall.. I'll have the sink off this week you watch!
Don't forget dailies and nightime routines... blah blah blah!!

Hi all,
Was wondering if i would be able to join in with this thread, can't even begin to tell you what this whole house looks like!!!:rolleyes:
Everyday day i think right i will get on top of it and start doing daily things each day, but then i look around a think *sack it!*, always feel like i'm taking one step forwards and two steps back.:eek:
So tomorrow, I am am gonna start !!!!:D
Without trawing through 76 pages can anyone "more experienced" please tell me what the dailies are? Then i can pick up the rest and jump in with moggins daily tasks. (hopefully)
hugs to all, your'e all doing a great job:T

Dailies are the things you need to do every day to keep on top of things
eg. Washing (think Pigpens forgotten where the washing machine iseither that or she has buried it under the pile of dirty laundry!
Making beds
Getting showered and dressed (to shoes preferably but Pigpen prefers being barefoot and pregnant)
Preparing meals etc etc.
Nightime routines are things you need to do so the morning doesn't catch you by surprise. Have clothes ready to put on, school things sorted, lunches made, a quick swipe of the kitchen and tidy the living room before you go to bed.
LOL, see pigpen! I can get my own back sometimesOrganised people are just too lazy to look for things

Thanks Moggins.
Ok, will do dailies/nightlies tomorrow, they are usually the things i HAVE to keep on top of anyway washing, drying etc. Food, clothes etc.
And will do Tuesday's terrible twosome as well.
But - be warned i may need a hammer and chisel for the oven!
OOOhhh cant wiat for tomorrow. Let the games begin.....0 -
Oven is OK. Only gave it a GOOD clean last week.
Can't do worktops as I'm in 'mid marmalade make' so worktops full.
But will have to have a proper clean when I have finished. :eek:
Bathroom not bad but will tackle the basin cupboard. I know there is 'old' stuff in there that I will never use.0
