Well did so much yesterday that I thought a good nights sleep would be on the cards but no apparently not - I was still awake at 2am struggling to go back to sleep:mad:
So far this morning DW emptied and reloaded, washing up done & kitchen S&S'd, living room and family room tidied, dry washing removed from airers. Now taking 5 with a cuppa and I feel so weary I don't want to get up again:o0 -

Nice easy day today as most of it is done. Maybe I can catch up with yesterdays!

I managed to do nothing from my list yesterday despite not stopping all day. In my defence it was DS's birthday and I was working most of the day.
So, in true flying tradition, yesterday's list is now no more and today's list is this:
Living room
Clean the windows
Have posh lunch
Hospice
What I've done
Sorted three trugs of socks, underwear etc (left them to see if anyone else would do them - the answer was no! I was a child though and put all their stuff back in the trugs for them to sort - I am so grown up!).
Put washing load on
Got two children out to school on time
Had breakfast (a miracle for me and something I need to start doing)
Daily accounts (and not fainted!)
Sort notices on fridge
Mop
Wipe all the woodwork
Dust any shelves/bookcases
Sort junk drawer
Prepare for puddy cat
Walk dog
So, onwards and upwards, today is another day and we'll see what I can get done. Hope you all have a good one!
Pigpen - love the photo!0 -
Ok, so I've done the bathroom and emptied the upstairs bins
School run in 10 mins, then I need to pop to the shop for milk and toilet rolls.......then on with the college work. I'll be doing a HHI at 10:30 with the beginning of This Morning though0 -
Have just finished tidying DDs bedroom, much quicker than I expected too, and have vacuumed the living room. Work now beckons.Spend less now, work less later.0
