I think a few people do on this forum. My son is in Sheffield so not far from his sister. Unfortunately I'm over 200 miles away in Ipswich

Racyred.. slacking needs to be reported.. Moggins ticks a huge red cross next to your name though and if you get too many you are struck off the christmas list!! Besides if you slack off too much your house will end up as messy as mine.. then you'll be sorry!! lol

you've done a fair bit though.. it'll be quicker next time!!

Evening.

Have just had a 40 min tidy up in the kitchen, and started planning the weekend. WM going. Had to as there was a nappy leakage before bedtime.:cool: At least that won't be waiting for us in the morning. But will mean i have to hang it up before bed


To do this weekend:

• check banking - current and savings accounts
• move money
• buy a premium bond
• wash cot bedding
• total clean of cooker. - did hob this evening but want to take apart the grill, and clean inside and the back
• food shop - from a list to stop me spending too much
• clothes sort
• meal plan for week
• boxes in loft
• kitchen carpet cleaned
• pick up high chair and car seat from aunties house (babies xmas pressies)
• arrange with sister when she wants bridesmaid fitting
• wash towels
• clean living room window/sill
• clean front door/porch
• wash DH's work clothes
• handwash my cashmere jumper
• clean bathroom
• dust my bedroom
• iron
• spend some time doing my index for here (30 min a day)

That should be enough to keep me going. I really hope i can tick everything off this weekend.

Michelle, x

Michelle you're way too organised and making me feel guilty!

RacyRed if I didn't have to confess I'd be in the same situation I was before, wasn't nice It's not easy at first, but it does get easier. Nothings perfect here, far from it, but I've managed to clear a lot of clutter from our lives which has made things a lot easier.

Right weekend list, inspired by Michelle to be more organised, I usually do this laid in bed then end up staying up until I am shattered planning the next day

[STRIKE]Moggins list - uniforms washed, just need drying and I**n what needs doing (That's a swear word here, I hate I**ning) [/STRIKE]

[strike]Shopping from list to go with meal plan (missed F&V lady when I was poorly)
Tescos to sort DS2s specs, will be embarrassed as he's snapped them within a week! [/strike]
Make sure children do the homework (mission impossible with DS1 at minute, homework=meltdown!)
Laundry away once dry (hope to hang outside but has frozen over tonight)

Night time routine Sunday

moggins

Hope everyone has a good weekend. I'm having to play it by ear at the moment and DH is going to be up most of the night so it's no point bothering tidying too much before I go to bed.

lil_me

You too Moggins, I'm awaiting the bomb drop on Sunday (DPs Mother home on leave and we always argue when she's back) so going to try and enjoy my last weekend that is arguement free for 2 weeks (until she goes back again!)
