    kitchen is a mess

    living room full of doghair and kids' mess (feel a fling boogie coming on)

    bathroom not too bad, so shouldn't take long

    Still need to phone:

    Orthodontist
    hospital

    Quick update. Phoned the council to pay my rent by debit card over the phone but I didn't know how much it was ( :o ) so they couldn't take payment, since when do councils not have your details on computer !!!!!!! So then I tried to make payment online (which is what I usually do) and it wouldn't accept the reference :confused: so STILL haven't paid it grrrrrr....I'm gonna fill in a direct debit form for it then it's done with and off my mind.

    Thursday Bathroom and Study/Pc Area N/A
    Level One
    Clean floors in these rooms (even if it is around the clutter)
    Level Two
    Clean bath, toilet and sink
    Clear any clutter from desk
    Dust PC and desk
    Wipe keyboard and mouse (these usually have more germs on than your toilet so important)
    Level Three
    Clear clutter from floor
    Wipe down tiles in bathroom
    Clean shower screen/curtain if you have one/if required
    Clean windows
    Extra mission:
    Pick whichever you want to attempt
    • Make any important calls you have been putting off
    • Clean tops of wardrobes
    • Wash your bathroom mats
    • Sort a wardrobe or part of, a drawer or set of drawers making sure it has what needs to be in it and any 'extras' are put where they should be
    My list:-

    [strike]Hoover through

    Your LO looks very sweet and innocent Pigpen ;)

    No news on our money yet. We filled in the forms and sent them back a week ago. Good job we're rich and don't really need it:rolleyes:

    I'm getting fed up of keeping an eye on the account and having to move money round so we don't go overdrawn, wish they'd hurry up.
  • morning everyone

    quick pop in at work in my lunch break. Sorry to hear about lil-mes problems. Sounds scary.

    I would normally offer to run things, but i can't see where i would have time at the minute. Perhaps we could divide it between us and then have a week each at doing it if she isn't around. Will check back tonight to see what you think

    I WILL have an empty house!!!

    Woke up with a very very sore throat, must have been the paint fumes from yesterday. Have not even thought about a list, but thankfully, bathroom and PC desk is easy-peasy.

    Bathroom
    PC desk
    Sort washing
    Iron some stuff
    Put some stuff away
    DS1 to swimming

    Thats it. I just ate half a tube of smarties and I have sugar rush, which is not very nice!

    Lil_me, hope you get your neighbors from hell sorted out, must be horrid to have to deal with that in your own home.

    OOh thanks Penny, just finished the one I was drinking, and cake definately sounds good to me. Still at work, but my manager told me to make myself a drink cos he is too busy to find something for me to do at the mo! Hope he remembers to buy me some more biscuits when he goes to Mr T tonight, as he promised me a new pack after demolishing half a pack that I brought in yesterday. Apparently the cookie thing on a Friday isn't a regular thing though - must have been someone's birthday.

    Will check in again when I'm home and have had a chance to do some flying - it's very quiet on here today!
