Not too bad tomorrow! I will give the hallway the once over I think

Need to address the wardrobe situation. I need those sucky storage bag things as whilst I've gotten rid of nearly all my clothes, it's still opening itself because there are two duvets in there with nowhere else to go. I might have to try sitting on the black bag, tying it tight and trying to make them airtight that way. Nobody watch though, okay!

Hey Doozergirl
Why not store the two duvets underneath your matress (on top of the base)?

Morning all

Snow is still here but more like slush/ice than snow. DDs snowlady survived the night thankfully.

DD has got her best friend coming around for tea tonight for the first time. Could prove interesting as they're TROUBLE when together :rotfl:

Today I'm planning my usual Friday routine of flying throughout the house in 1 go (with MSE breaks of course). Simple version of my list:

• Dailys
• DD bedroom
• Our bedroom
• Bathroom
• Stairs
• Livingroom
• Kitchen
• Laundry - didn't do it yesterday.

Will have to see how I get on. Thank goodness our house if competely decluttered so it shouldn't take me that long...except for the kitchen and bathroom Guess I'm going to learn how big an impact completing my dailies makes to my cleaning time since I haven't done them properly for 2 days

Later, time for school run already!!! :eek: :wave:

rach

Think it will be a busy day again. Last 'flying' day for a while as we are going up North for next week .
Will be seeing Sian in Chesterfield on Sunday and taking her out for a birthday meal, then its OH's family visits in Manchester and family history research mon - weds [including OH's uncles funeral on Tuesday] and Leeds for my family history research Thurs and Fri. Am thinking that we may also pop into Sheffield to see my son on Sat week[unfortunately this weekend he is with his dad in Norwich or we would see him then].
I just hope my 'stomach and bowel' problem can cope...we intend to take it easy and if need be come home early. Next week will be my test to see if I can cope with going back to work.

Well DD1 keeps nagging to go to playschool today, but she still looks really tired so i dont think she would make the walk there and back.

So far this morning I have

Dusted Lounge (even under video, DVD player etc)
Stardropped some marks on the carpet
Hoovered all downstairs
Cleaned skirting board in hall
Wash laminate floor in hallway
Cleaned bathroom (tile grout needs a good scrub, will buy DD's new toothbrushes so I can use their old ones - next week)
Sorted load of washing & WM on
Cleaned laminate floor in larder/comp room

All the time pretending to be an orange monster trying to catch the girls - now this is what I call multi-tasking - still my jobs got done and girls had fun:D

Still to do:-

Girls want to do sticking & glueing
Do 27 fling boogie in conservatory (kids toys in there so while they stick and glue I can fling without their knowledge or objections;)
Roast for tea so prep veg
Upstairs - Dust, hoover, change bedding all rooms
Hoover stairs
Clean upstairs loo

Think that will do for mo.

Happy flying everyone

Good morning everyone,

Having a lazy start today, but a bit more to do than yesterday. Moggins list will be done on Sunday, so its just my normal Friday dailies for today.
Although i have been sat here for a while, i have made the beds and cleaned the bathroom and toilet upstairs. Kitchen is clean after breakfast, so just need to dust the living room, clean the downstairs toilet and hoover (which will be later). Im also wanting to finish painting the ceiling in the downstairs loo - so might do that once ive finished my cuppa. Sure there are other things i need to do, but cant think right now.
Ok, im off to get busy!!!!

:idea: Hadn't thought of that! Genius!

I want to go out (I only did the pm school run on Wednesday and haven't been out since) but the car was sparkling on Wednesday and if I drive it, it's going to get really disgusting with the slush. I've left it under a thick blanket of snow. The only one in the street!
