Goodmorning all!

It is 8:12 A.M. and the kids and DH have just gone out the door. It's just me and my two yrs old now. I'm working this afternoon, so time to get dressed now and get cracking!

It's the living room today! :T
I will include washing the windows as that needs doing desperately!

I am SOO happy!.. it is 10 minutes after breakfast, and my kitchen looks GREAT! DW is loaded.. and it's all neat and tidy again. WHOOHOO!! LOL!

Daylies include:
Toilet
kitchen tidy
pick up toys
make beds.

SO off I go.. upstairs, make my bed as I'm there to get dressed anyway.

Have a great day all!
Happy flying!

Overslept again this morning :mad: What is up with me? Didn't get up until 7.15 so all my good intentions of getting things done might not happen after all

Washing machine is already on with a load, only managed to get 2 done yesterday. Most of what I washed yesterday is dry so I'm thinking that since I want to watch both episodes of the new CSI series on 5 tonight I'll take the ironing upstairs to do while watching the portable IF it was just one episode I wouldn't need to resort to the portable but OH wants to watch a film at 10 :rolleyes:

We've all woken up with flu like symptoms to some degree or another (I'm last...again!) so not a very happy household ATM. Isn't stopping DD singing "Angels" at the top of her voice while she's in the bathroom :rotfl:

Right, my list (DD gave me permission to do it myself :rotfl: )

• Dailies
  • Beds
  • Bathroom
  • Dishes
  • Kitchen
  • Wash load - another 1
• Livingroom
  • Dust
    • TV screen properly
    • Wipe skirting boards
  • Hoover
    • sofa
  • Take cushion covers off to wash
  • hotspots
• Hall/stairs/landing
  • Hoover
  • Dust
  • Cobwebs
• Mop kitchen floor
• Demould around kitchen window (didn't spot that until I was washing up last night :mad: )
• Asda - "driving" gloves for OH :rolleyes:
• School run x 2
• Make bolognese up for tea
  • Assemble lasagne for Thursday

And anything else that comes to mind :rolleyes:

Just checked on "Money" whether OH had updated it like he's been promising to do all month and he hasn't :mad: HEADS WILL ROLL... how am I supposed to do a budget for the next pay-month when I don't know how much money we have/owe! :mad::mad: MOST Annoyingly I left him a note on the desk ONTOP of his friends birthday card (which is left up to me to post!) which he has written the address on :mad: MEN! :mad::mad:

hi all

well my house does look a lot better than it used to, an now we meal plan so we eat better and cheaper but i must admit i am finding it hard to do the jobs in a routine way as have a 18 month old and nearly 3 year old at home who have chickenpox. So even the few hours when the biggest would go out to preschool are gone at the moment.

anyway - i can get things done for a little bit whilst they watch cbeebies but the 18 month old gets bored easliy and then just pesters his sitster to play with him so she gets upset as she wants to watch cbeebies.

Anyway - got bathroom done yesterday and part of kitchen.

Lots to do today to catch up plus must start to organise the garden as it has become a dumping ground for stuff to recycle, get rid off.

anyway better go and clean out the oven, i put the oven cleaner in yesterday but never had a chance to wipe it out so it has been on for 24 hours!

hopefully OH will take them out with the dog for a walk at luchtime so i can have a mad hour trying to catch up.

i am determined to do this..... i will recliam my house from the dirt and the clutter. I have been miserable about this for so long, it is time i changed things...

back to the oven....

I had the biggest smile on my face when I entered the kitchen this morning, cause I'd forgotten I'd done it and it looked fab, was organised and clean and it was well worth it, so gonna keep it up.

Things to do:-

Also to do:

* WM x 2 Done
* TD x 2 Done
* Make beds Done
* Wipe cloakroom toilet Done
* Pre-pepare tea checking freezer for stuff for microwave
* Wipe dust off new tiles in kitchen (made a huge difference to the kitchen and my well being - horrible dirty plaster is not nice to look at and it was obviously was getting me down Done
* Measure living room window for curtain rail (I'm guessing 8ft :eek: )
* Wipe over kitchen floor (again) Done - twice!
* Fold washing/put away


Well, that'll keep me off the streets for a few hours

Have a good one folks! x
