Morning all, just a quick post from me before I head off to work. Have so far kept kitchen looking sparkling yay and lounge/dining room don't look too bad. Off out in a bit, need to drop dd1 at school first pop to asda for some bin bags as I have run out, then get to work. Won't be home till 6pm so won't get started on the bedroom till later, feel like I'm getting a head cold though....feeling a bit stuffy so must get so meds from asda whilst I'm there.

Have a good day flying ladies......;)

extras:
bleach down loo, and cleaned it - i noticed it was a bit pongy when i spent time talking to God and that made me feel worse - probably my nephews visiting last weekend, which reminds me, should also wash the bathroom set as they normally tinkle on that too - BOYS!!

Morning everyone..,
Well the best laid plans of mice and men...DD2 is of sick from school today. Currently in bed sleeping, so my intended morning regime is down the plug hole, for today at least.
I'm going to try to do quiet things today ( turbolist!!) and just general dailies. I was doing the bathroom today, so I can either do it when she's awake or just do it tomorrow when I would be doing children's bedrooms.
They do their own tidying and decluttering, I just go in and dust and hoover.
They also strip their own beds and then remake them. Its quite light work for me, even for 4 of them...

So, I'm going to put the kettle on and empty the dishwasher, TD some clothes and then sort out, also give kitchen a S&S and then see how the rest of the day goes.

Hope you all have a good day.

Virgin coming this morning to install TV so don't know whether that'll mean disconnecting the internet while he installs it.

I've hoovered and tidied all downstairs and put a load of washing on the line. DD is still off school so don't know whether I'll get much more done today.
