Dead pleased with myself, i have got quite a lot done this am, even put on a load of washing. Right time to head off. Have a good day!!0 -
Mornin all, my day wasn't going well yesterday, wasn't finished the list at 9pm but went in the bath for a soak to wash away some stress, anyway while I was up there I heard the vacuum cleaner on, thought DP had dropped something, came down and he was vacuuming the sitting room and had done lots more tidying!!! I nearly passed out in shock!! Ok he did dump loads of it in the kitchen that he didn't know where to put things etc but he made the effort and I was very pleased
Wonder if it'll last or if it will be another year before he does it again I don't know :rotfl:
Anyway, I finished what he didn't do this morning, waiting for one side of the floor to dry so I can do the other. Can't start on upstairs yet as he's still in bed but at work tonight so leaving him a while. Going to concentrate on the dailies until he gets up. Then bedroom blitz, will have to use drier for sheets but needs doing.
Aswell as the dailies, night time stuff and the list I must

Hi.
Things are going well and my home is nice and tidy and clean.
Thank you all for the inspiration to get my life in some sort of routine.
It seems daunting but once you get into the swing of it things seem less of a chore.
Many thanks
