    Hi all.
    After a bad couple of days, not much has been done.
    However, I am determined to get back into it tomorrow. Will check out Moggins list later on, and adjust it to fit the rooms I've missed. Not too worried about catching up as these rooms will come around again.
    Thankyou all for your support over past couple of days. Its great to know there are so many kind people out there.
    Looking forward to F-L-Y-I-N-G tomorrow!!!:D

    Hello all,

    I am still here, and still flying, only got broadband back yesterday hence no posting. Too many rooms to clean, and a house that has been empty for a year really atracts dirt (excuses, excuses). I did briefly have a moment Friday afternoon when the whole house was clean and tidy but the demons of chaos soon did their evil business.

    I also can't shine the sink - it is rusty. I can't clean the bathroom tiles too hard or they fall off. Please may I be excused?

    Lol, glad i'm not the only one waiting!
    January budget
    Nothing left!
  • I haven't done too well today as i spent the morning (6:30 to 11) sorting baby out, and then went to my mums and only got back at 6. OOPS. Haven't seen them all since new years day though so i'm not feeling bad.

    However, since getting in, DH cooked tea, and i went into the babies room which has been a huge dumping ground, and tidied it/made up the cot to be able to get the baby in their from Friday night. Now he's slept through for 3 out of the past 4 nights, i don't need to wake up to his gurgling. Every time we turn over he tries to talk to us. :rotfl:

    I just need to take some too small clothes out of his wardrobe, and take 2 more boxes out, and then hoover, and one room will be absolutely floorless. I then moved stuff from there to the landing and spare room.

    Does anyone else seem to move things from one place to another? I often feel like i'm doing one of them puzzles where you slide the pieces along until they all fit.

    I am about to go and wash up, run the steriliser for bottles again, wipe the sides and the sink, and then write moggins task for tomorrow in my diary. I will do 'something' in the bathroom before bed, as i've got a friend and her baby coming for lunch tomorrow.

    Happy birthday Rach - you can be excused for one day. ;)

    Michelle, x
  • :D i am too, want to go to bed but not until i've seen list even though not covered much of today!!!!!!!

    and happy birthday, Rach, have fab time away
