Morning all
Welcome Spud, looks like everything has been explained very well for you
DS and DH have done their usual of hiding their washing and producing it all in one go so I have a couple of loads to go on today and then I want to whizz the hoover round before my friend arrives. DH spilled beer over the keyboard yesterday and some of the keys are sticking, so I may have to take that apart to clean it too.Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

Am out for dinner tonight, so no cooking for me today, yipee!
EDIT: Damn, dinner tonight has been cancelled, so now I have to think of something to cook. Won't be anything too elaborate as I haven't taken anything out of the freezer and can't be bothered to go to the shops!Sorting my life out to give a better life to my:heartsmil 2 gorgeous boys :heartsmil0 -
First load of washing in, one load folded and taken upstairs, kitchen floor swept.
I have just discovered that someone appears to be eating my teatowels. I like to have a clean one out every day and there are no clean ones. I've gone through the dirty washing and only found 5. I can't go out of the house today (which is a shame as it is lovely) so I'll have to run into town tomorrow to pick up some more.Organised people are just too lazy to look for things

Good morning,
Right, today is catch up day, as i havnt had the energy to do much the last couple of days, soooo -
Need to dust and hoover upstairs,
Hoover the stairs and downstairs,
Swish the bathroom and toilets,
FINISH THE KITCHEN DRAWERS!!!!!(i know, been saying that all week!!!)
Cook roast dinner,
Clean kitchen floor,
Finish paperwork from Friday - sort out ebay stuff that needs sending tomorrow,
Sit down, and watch a dvd!!!!
Not as long as some lists, but enough for me - hopefully the children will tidy their rooms whilst im busy, so that i can dust and hoover without any fuss.
Right - better get started, want to do all this early so i can relax later.
Happy flying!!!!0 -

Reporting in for the week!
I've managed to keep up with everything that's been set on Moggin's lists every night.... well nearly!
All I have left to do is : sort out a section of wardrobe and some hotspotty ones. So today, I'm classing hotspots as my ironing pile and trying to get an hour of that done.
I was hoovering up yesterday and I actually enjoyed it...it's the first time that I felt proud of our home and its state of tidyness.
Got all the family here for Sunday Roast today, so it will be bedlam with 6 grandkids (ranging from 7-7months) mum and mum in law and uncle tom cobbley and all! Never mind, I love it and its only once a fortnight.
Just been reading through the list, isn't it amazing how we are all getting more organised with a bit of support from people we don't even know? It's so heartwarming... big hugs to you all
Try and have a happy and restful day all
Take care xxA family that eats together, stays together

Morning All
Sort of fell off the FL wagon mid week but house still seems ok.
Today I want to clear washing basket and ironing pile - a good start to the week if I can do that. No cleaning as such but need to spend some time on my hotspot which is my office.
Sink is shined everyday still, isnt a very nice sink and doesnt look much different when it is cleaned. However am hoping that will have a new kitchen by March and then will really be able to shine my sink.
Have a great day whatever you are doing.0 -

My priorities are still a little different this week as I need to make sure I get my tax return done, complete reflexology homework, start on 2 other assignments and get some case studies underway.
so far today....
Tried to do tax - but online self assesment still down
called tax and found out I could offset loss from 05-06 against some tax paid in previous years (yipee!!!)
Showered & dressed (oops, no shoes and hair still wet)
Opened my cards
Wash load in machine (last load - now an empty basket.... ok I 've cheated and no bedding done this week, nor ironing yet!)
I'm hoping to nip down to the allotments in a bit to see whether anything is available (on the list for one, but the others said come down on Sunday)
Happy flying everyone - haven't had chance to read all the other posts, but I gather your little D was unwell again Mogs, give her a big hug from me? And try not to wear yourself out - when extra challenges are thrown at us something has to give.... don't let it be you!
Love,
