I'm going to give this a go
I've been keeping up with housework as much as I can but Thomas demands a lot of my attention so it's not as clean as I would like.
Could someone link me to toots' list? Thanks

Congrats JoJo and fingers crossed for tomorrow.
Not sure how much I'll be in. I barely have the energy to post, let alone do housework, but then I will need to clean up the dog hair when the dog goes, and do some laundry, clear out the spare room so it can be emptied while I'm away.... And pack for my next work trip

hi all
I'm in this week and will try not to fade as the week goes on....as I usually do. Then I lurk out of shame.
We are having the loft insulated to a greater thickness tomorrow so have majorly decluttered it. Result was the landing hall and stairs have been vacuumed already.
I'll let you know how it goes.
Thanks to FCC for the thread. It does motivate me when I stick to it.
