    Oh Moggins can I join?

    That list for tomorrow looks just like what I need (DH has just shined (shone ?) the sink - so just need to keep on top of it tomorrow).

    Good luck everyone.

    I'll be on when I'm not working - and when I'm working I'll be plotting my plan of action.

  • Count me in too please. Have been "flying" for a few months and there are huge improvements-but still a way to go.......
    Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most..... ;)

    I need to sign up for this too as I need someone to tell me to tidy my room. I live in a shared house so there is a cleaner for all the bathrooms / kitchen etc but my room is in real need of tlc. I need to half the amount of stuff I own really - ebay here I come - but sorting it and doing the paper work etc is a real priority I think.

    Good luck to everyone else joining hopefully we will all learn to fly soon.

    Thanks for the list Moggins - here's hoping!
    Actually I'll be behind for a day or two as we don't take down cards or deccies until just before twelfth night so I'll add in a quick tidy of dining room and kitchen to make up!
    Resolution:
    Think twice before spending anything!
  • Thank you Moggins

    Am out from lunchtime tomorrow and think will be having a lie in if I manage to stay up till 12.(Must admit am tempted to go to bed now).

    Sink is shined and will definately take the decorations down tomorrow and will need to hoover after. Have already done the cards just need to add one more person to my list for next year. Dont know if will get the 30 min filing done and the 27 boogie but small steps is the way to go.
