Morning all. Stressful weekend which I don't want to talk about (To anyone!:o) so I'm going to play catch-up in a way. I desperately need to hoover through upstairs and I have a stack of washing to do as well, but I'm not going to go mad for a change. I've decided to start timetabling me time DAILY, as in get in from school, do the dailies, some (if not all) of the list and then put one of my Paul McKenna CDs on (and a timer to wake me up ) and do a small workout when I get back up. Well thats the plan, whether it will come to fruition is another matter :rotfl:

• Level One
  • Clean floor
• Level Two
  • Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces

Jobs for this week (no dining room)

Right, off to sort DD out who is on a go slow again :mad: :wave:

Morning.

We are up and dressed a bit quicker than usual this morning as i am expecting my 'wrong' delivery. Was just collecting my thoughts together so i can post my list, and then get on i think. Charlie's in a good mood, so i will see what i can get done, but i want to start sorting out his 9-12 month clothes as well this week. He will get another few weeks out of the clothes, but i think he may need the vests and sleepsuits sooner, and knowing how long it takes me to sort everything out, then i think i need to get on with it in babysteps.

Monday 4/6:
Manic Monday - Kitchen and Dining Room

Clean floors
Level Two
Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces
Clean cupboard door fronts and the front of appliances
Sort fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front

• [STRIKE]Make a nurses appointment[/STRIKE]

Anyway, there isn't really that much there to do if i can get a good run at it. So i will do my best and report back later.

So many plans for today, but I can't seem to get going!!

Saw the girls off to their school trip, came home, sat down.. and that's it.
It's 10 o'clock already! I've got to get cracking but my head keeps filling up with excuses.. shall I go see a friend.. shall I take a nap, shall I eat some more..

sigh

Somebody, PLEASE motivate me! (or kick me up the backside..)

hollyh - hope your better now - dont rush it and make yourself ill again
niki - good luck with the me time
michelle - well done on the 60 papers
and hello :wave: to everyone else
right this book - please write it and let me know when its published - i would love to know how you all juggle everything. if i start now with just me maybe later in a relationship it wouldnt be so bad .

Had a lovely weekend in the garden. cut the lawn, hedge, moved the woodpile 5mts (from by the backdoor to now behind the bathroom so you can look out the kitchen window and it doesnt look like the gardens a tip) put the plastic furniture in the shed and left my lovely new wooden ones out. It now looks respectable - nothing like Shirleys though .

Right today

Manic Monday - Kitchen
Level One
Clean floors
Level Two
Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces
Clean cupboard door fronts and the front of appliances
Sort fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front
Level Three
Wipe window sills, clean any marks off windows if required
Wash the washer drawer out if it's gunky
[STRIKE]Clean oven if you didn’t do it last week[/STRIKE] Still havent used it - guess thats the joy of having a oven/microwave which gets wiped every time its used
Declutter mission task
Sort any cupboard, doesn't have to be in the kitchen/dining room, even if it's just for 10 minutes

We must also go shopping. I looked in my food cupboards and we can have:
baked beans for 4 nights (i hate beans and have no idea why we have them)
3 jars each of soya sauce, ketchup, mayo and marmite
packet of sweet and sour sauce to have with rice (no meat though!!)
packet of thai red curry sauce to have with rice (again no meat!)
a huge jar of gerkins
homemade frozen roast potatoes
now ladies - what can you make with that without going shopping!!!! I have no idea how i have gained the most random things (i do know why i have 3 jars of marmite - something to do with the amount i eat) Very very random!

Have a lovely day everyone and see you soon!
