Morning everyone!

Well done Mumto5 :j:j
Yesterday afternoon didn't quite go to plan as my friend dropped by unannounced in my child free hours but at least the house was ready to receive guests and I am faily on top of the lists

I came down this morning and just looked around at how tidy things looked compared to a few weeks ago and smiled.

We are probably meeting up with friends today as the holidays are nearing the end but this is how it looks:

Wednesday - Master bedroom and Landing
Level 1
Vacuum the floors
Level 3
Polish any glass bits.. table tops, lamps, mirrors etc
Declutter and wipe the bedside tables... or whatever area you use as a dumping ground!

Thursday bathroom and study
Level 3
Clear the desk, now dust it (behind too if you can)
Wipe the tiles
Extras
Wipe radiators, shelves and paintwork

Friday - Kids rooms, Spare rooms or another neglected room
Level 1
Declutter and vacuum the floor
Tidy away all the toys and clothes and games and books that are in the wrong places - get those responsible to help
Level 2
Strip and wash bedding and replace with clean.. vacuum and turn mattresses if needed
Sort through a cupboard/drawer/shelf ready for the ebay challenge
Level 3
Dust and deweb
Wipe over the bedframes and paintwork
HHI
Extras
Starting thinking about Autumn, plans for the garden (bulbs?), does the chimney need sweeping, the threshold repainting, boiler servicing etc

My extras are:

Hope you all have a productive day!

Going to have a go at the kitchen cupboard now before I bottle out. Oh and DH had a quick try on of his suit for friend's wedding (he needs a bigger one) and suggested getting rid of all the smaller waist stuff, I think it may be Christmas before he does it :rotfl:

Morning all

Mumto5 - well done and congratulations :]]
CY - How much!! I'd be getting that rent money sharpish before some jeans are bought to go with the top hehe

I spent the night on the sofa - DH was snoring, This morning I have recovered a chair for the DR, 3 more to go and cleared the DR table and hung some washing up on the drier, I'm now organising DH's day for him, he's going to take the kiddies out for a long walk later - a couple of peaceful hours for me :]]

Have a good day everyone, hope you got some sleep Pigpen

I am embarrassed by my cupboard in the kitchen. I have just sorted 2 full bags of carrier bags to put in the recycling at the supermarket, I also have a bag of the re-usable supermarket ones that are going in my car to use instead of getting more...and re still have 54 supermarket bags :eek: we use them as rubbish bags so I am not getting rid of them however I might suggest to DH that we reuse a few more! I also chucked 2 empty boxes that had been put in there when we bought things, I don't even know why. I have put everything else back but you can actually walk into it. We have 3 boxes from the move in there which we need to deal with but they are books and CDs mostly and I am gradually going to sell them. Eventually I want to put shelving at the end. DH is going to wonder what I have done but I am hoping it might inspire him to help me...who am I kidding :rotfl:

Morning!

Just nipping in to say bye for now. We are going out to play, until lunch, then when my mum arrives we set off for the airport. So I won't have chance later.

Living room floor is covered in toys, those kiddos better help me put them away. Rest of the house is "acceptable" might even put a wash on and leave on airer...

See you week after next, hugs to all you lovely ladies x
