I'm in again this week! Last week I didn't update past Wednesday but I did manage to get around 80% of it done so happy! I don't think I'll manage much on Wednesday this week as I'm back for my first shift at work since I had my daughter in May and I think I may just collapse in a heap when I get home!

I failed totally last week but will try again this week, the washing is all up to date and the kitchen is clean & tidy. I've also got a meal plan sorted and everything ready for packups.
I need to keep on top of what's already done and also sort out the living room.Chin up, Titus out.0 -

LynneJK J has a 'man shed' garage plus the back extension - which we were hoping to turn into an office for him/craft room - is full of his stuff. He also has stuff in the lounge, kitchen, our room, landing and keeps old boxes technology came in in S's room which S hates along with big piles of paper. S says he feels like his room is a basement
and as he is prone to asthma it's really hard as I simply can't clean in there properly. He has old clothes in the top of Z's wardrobe. Oh, and the attic is heaving too. If I try to clear any stuff and put it, say, in the extension he kicks off at me because he's trying to keep a clear area where he can sort stuff out.
See my problem? I'd love to just be able to put all his carp in one area for him but it's just not happening.Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting0 -
In for my second week!0
