A FROG a week equals a special treat!

Bossymoo that's great progress. With that app, why don't you delete it off completely and reinstall it? Or check if there've been any updates? Or do it on your PC?

The only way I'm going to be able to tackle these Frogs is to promise myself an hour on stuff I want to do (patchwork) for every hour I have to grind out de-Frogging.

Starting now, at 4.00 pm today. 1 hour on a Frog.

Sounds like a great reward system!!

I'm resurrecting this thread as I am drowning in 'little' frogs that are just not getting done!!:o

I haven't decided on my treats yet but my frog list is as follows:
1.Paint and fix the door jambs - Froglet
2. Clear out the understair cupboard - Tadpole
3.Clean the grout in the hall - Froglet
4. Seal the hall tiles - Frog
5. Sort the stair spindles - Tadpole
6. Spot clean the carpets - Tadpole
7. Lay loft insulation - Froglet
8. Replace bathroom light pull - Tadpole
9. Clean bathroom tile grout - Froglet
10. Do a test removal on hall tiles - Frog
11. Replace hall tiles if test goes okay! - Big Frog
12. Touch up paint around windows - Froglet
13. Clean hearth - Froglet
14. Clear rubbish from garden into sacks - Froglet
15. Clear out greenhouse - Frog
16. Clean all reusable pots - Frog
17. Replace greenhouse glass - Froglet
18. Dig out plants to keep and put into pots - Enormous Frog
19. Dig over border - Godzilla size Frog
20. Plant seeds for veg - Froglet

So, they are my first 20 'frogs' to clear - I'm making a start this weekend so hopefully I will think of some special treats to help motivate me!!

Wow you have a great list which deserves many treats well done. Makes me feel lazy just reading it :rotfl:

I love this idea. Too many frogs to list (and I’m not sure I want to go public with some of them!) but what a great motivator. I have already decided that this is going to be the year of finishing the craft UFOs. This would be a really good way to achieve some of them. Thank you for resurrecting the thread.

Five down!! :j I'll update properly tomorrow but I'm really pleased with today's progress hopefully tomorrow we will finish the indoor jobs except for the bathroom light pull and the hall tile removal.

It's been a really positive day - the only downside is that I now have additional things to go on the list!! :rotfl: never mind, I'll munch those frogs too!!

Okay, time to sleep- frog munching to continue tomorrow!
