    With ref to the first post on here - what's with the
    Monday: red, yellow and orange things.
    Tues: blue things etc. etc.

    How about -

    January: red things
    February: yellow things
    March: orange things................

    Clean the skirting on the stairs? Can't do that. Stairs are cleaned in August.

    Christmas decorations? Are you referring to the cobwebs I sprayed with glitter? Oh! That was last year. Yes, they're still there, thank you.

    Flylady? I love her. When I'm depressed I always read her book, it never fails to give me a good laugh. Having said that, in this house of chaos you can usually find a shiny sink.

    A rainbow has seven colours. A week has seven days. Coincidence?

    Monday = red
    Tuesday = orange
    Wednesday = yellow
    Thursday = green
    Friday = blue
    Saturday = indigo
    Sunday = violet

    Not sure when you clear up white or black things ... Never? :rotfl:

    I like that idea! I can just put a open bag of sugar (meaning actual bag) in the sugar canister and every time I need to open a new foil pouch of tea bags just place that in:rotfl:

    Still looks pretty lmao

    Open it over the sink, you can wash the sugar grains away with a bit of cold water.

    Its official .... I'm a skank :D

    oh this is so wonderful !

    The iron in our house was last switched on a year ago, some of the Xmas decorations have been up since 2010.... and my clothes much prefer to gather together in a heap on a handy chair. DS was back from uni for 2 days before the floordrobe returned... guess he had my genes...
