  • Hallway, stairs - dusted, hoovered, etc
    Livingroom dusted, hoovered
    Only me so doesn't get bad now I am on top of it.

    However I am a 'layer-down' rather than a 'putter-away' so am working through the piles (mainly paper) on my flat surfaces.

    Plus have one bag for charity shop collection on Thurs :j

    I really need to sort kitchen cupboards. It's a U shape which means I have two cupboards that go back under the middle bit IYSWIM. So have to decide what gets put in there that I want to keep but don't use very often (like the marmalade pan)

    I know how you feel; I think I burnt myself out last week!

    Come on! Just fifteen minutes here and there won't kill us. We'll do it together :)

    I've put Lily Allen on and I've hoovered the lounge now. Going to clean down the TV and surfaces next.

    Thanks for the kicks!

  • Afternoon everyone.

    I've been good. I've been out for a walk, and paid in cheques, made an appointment at the bank to open the baby a savings account, and got myself some bargains from the local supermarket. The windows are clean on the outside (not me - but definitely worth £2.50).

    I've also flung some bits of paper, done some shredding, and read a magazine which can now go :T

    Baby just woke up again, so i will grab some lunch (soup from the freezer, which is hopefully nicer than i remember it being last time) and then try to hoover the living room. He doesn't mind the noise of the hoover, so i'll do kitchen, living/dining room, and the hall if the cats are behaving.


    For those of you downhearted, I was moaning to DH last night about how little i felt i'd done, and he said, actually, you've done loads, much more than i would have managed if i'd been the one at home. And you know what - i think he is right. It is just my perfectionism again. ;) Remember the motto. Progress, not perfection in 2007! We are all making a difference. We just need to believe in ourselves.
