Well seeing as I did the filing cabinet so I now have one(had a drawer with runners on desk for 3 years, and someone had some of the foldery things on freecycle
) I have decided to put the rest on hold and sort paperwork into it. So far we've found 3 boxes, which are all very big, full of paperwork that needs sorting out. So with only one drawer some will have to be flung
Shredder at the ready!
(Finding receipts from things you bought in 1998 that you don't even own any more is bad by the way)
DP has took little DS out as he needs to repair the quad, and must be after something as he made me a coffee before he went :eek: First time in about 6 months since we were on holiday. Wonder what he's after, or did he just realise I was getting stressed and I am burried in a mountain of paperwork.
Ours are back to school on Monday, I will actually miss them and I don't miss the morning stress! Or the ironing uniform which I will have to do this weekendOne day I might be more organised...........

I've cleaned the bathroom and toilet properly (not just a swish), done a load of washing and draped it round the house (drizzling) and cooked and cleared up lunch.
I'd like to empty the wastepaper baskets but the binmen aren't coming until tomorrow and there is no way I can get even one more bag in there (2 days late this week because of New Year).0 -

Thanks everyone and have a great day!Smoke free since 16th December 20120 -
I'm not doing so well today.
My cold has got more stinky, the baby has been rather grizzly for a good part of the day, and i can't take anything for my cold or cough cos of the breastfeeding.
I have managed to change the bedding on my bed, and unpack the last bag from our time away. I also put some of the clothes i got for xmas away, and got rid of tags and bags. WM is loaded but i haven't found the energy to switch it on yet. I've done a couple of computer bits, and swiped the bathroom. DH sterilised bottles and breastpump for me this morning, washed up and made me a cuppa before he went to work.
I'm going to have a bit of a snooze while the baby does today, and then hopefully i will feel loads better for tomorrow and be able to get on a bit better.

Sorry getting distracted againI should really have switched the PC off so I can get this done, by my MSE addiction getting the better of me!
Sorry to hear you are unwell Michelle. Hope you feel better soon. Getting your rest when baby does is a great idea. Enjoy your rest.One day I might be more organised...........
