    What a great photo, getting all of them in one place must have been a challenge in itself! I'll try and post one of my 2 tonight on the who's who page, trying to get hosting site to work! Will post my long list tomorrow, hopefully DS2 will be better and able to return to school. His uniforms out ready (not that I am wanting rid or anything!)
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

  • I had a day off today and had grand plans on what I was going to do BUT DD is poorly so I spent the day keeping her company and watching telly. Did lots of ironing this morning, loaded DW. Lounge and kitchen are tidy and so is bathroom but bedrooms are decimated. Didn't wash today either. Ah well it made her happy having my full attention. Had a huge delivery from ASDA and sorted that out and ordered my veggies etc from local organic place.( hope they are good)

    Moggins list:
    [STRIKE]Clean dining room, hoover,[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Water any plants.[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Home office/computer desk. declutter, dust. while you are working run defrag on the computer.[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Clean and hoover landings.[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]27 fling boogie and[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]tackle hotspots.[/STRIKE]

    Almost did everything. I have to say the house is looking really good, and now everything is clean and tidy it's a lot easier to keep it that way. The BF split something on the kitchen floor this evening and then wiped it up saying he didn't think I'd want that on my nice clean floor :T Am tempted to take some photos as we don't have any of what the house looks like now, just the ones from when we moved in and during the building work.

    Jobs for tomorrow:
    moggins list:
    [STRIKE]Master bedroom - dust, hoover, fling open those windows, clear any hotspots and clean out bedside cabinets. Clear any developing floordrobe.[/STRIKE]

    Check understairs cupboard for any necessary tidying and decluttering.

    Carried over from today:
    [STRIKE]Change of address for old company pension[/STRIKE]
    Washing

    Plus:
    [STRIKE]Clear out the last of the filing cabinet - just a couple more files to go.[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Sort out goals for Feb[/STRIKE]

    Pigpen, your kids are really, really beautiful and the picture is soo full of personality! Your little toddler girl reminds me of mine - I could just eat fat little legs like that! :heartpuls

    Fell off the wagon today, pretty much did my dailies though so I haven't slipped behind at least. Didn't check in on this thread which I realise this evening is very important for motivation, as I'm raring to go right now! (I won't though!)

    Master Bedroom is pretty good but I will do the tasks and then I will shame myself by posting a picture of the dining room as is. That should provide all the motivation I need to sort it!
