Do you know I think I just might - and remember those far off days when not only did I get to put lipstick on in the morning, but actually reapplied it during the day, too!

I'm hoping that No 7 is cleaning the bin... cos I've just done that!!!!

pigpen

cleaning the bin sounds perfect!!

lipstick.. ??? Is that what we wish we had when the little treasures won't stop nagging????

Afternoon everyone.

I've got the worst headache today. Think it is a bit of a food/alcohol hangover from the weekend after abstaining for quite a while. Also, baby waking me up at 5 by kicking his feet against the side of the cot and talking to himself. My tummy feels sore as well. Doesn't help that i've spent the morning with my sister and 3yo nephew, plus the baby has been sicky, so i don't feel good.

(Just had a bacon/cheese/mayo butty plus a coffee, plus 3 choccies. OOPS. That blew the diet again - although has helped me feel marginally better)

Got my letter of application written and sent off last night, so hopefully i feel better tomorrow or i may not even bother going.

I'm normally a Radio 4 girl- but I fly to Heat FM - but my 'time' was the 80s!
Just do as much as you can - then move onto the next day's work tomorrow. The kithcen will come around again, and the bits you did last week only take half the time, so you can add on a task every week. I could hardly walk after last week - and I've got time to check in this week before I go to pick up DS#2 from pre-school. And I have sparkly windows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:T

tazz, you do as much as you can in the time you've got. The same areas will come around next week and you get to have another go. After a few weeks you will find you have done most of the clearing and deep cleaning and it won't take you long at all

Thank you for your support, It is actually very rewarding seeing the fridge clean! Right onto the oven..
