    Thanks for all the new job wishes folks, its not something I wanted to do, been backed into a corner really :silenced: but it'll have to do whilst I keep looking.

    Flying wise, I tidied my car and my handbag and my purse.

    Sorted out the rubbish, put all my receipts in an envelope and claimed some expenses I'd forgotton about.

    Also decluttered 'monday' which is an achievement.:whistle:

    Hi everyone, I would love to join you all if that's ok. I still live at home with my parents and where we work full time and things have been happening recently, all the housework other than the basic "must do" tasks have fallen by the wayside over the past 6 months or so. My working pattern now means I am home 3 days a week mostly so I have more time to get things done and help out where I can but I just don't know where to start! So I think this thread will really help me sort it out and eventually we'll have an amazing house!

    Didn't manage to do any of yesterday's tasks in my own home but did clean my friend's kitchen while I was looking after her 4 week old baby so she could get some work done!

    Will pop back later to update on today's progress!
