    Really know where you’re coming from with regards housework Emz - it’s a constant battle in our house. Check out The Organised Mum Method - she has a blog and fb page. Really does help keep on top of things (admittedly I’ve slipped again lately though!)

    Thanks for this post :) - that website looks great and I love the free lists and stuff on there. I'm going to print some out and it'll help with keeping on top of everything.

    I can't believe I've done it!! Well, apart from my toenails, but I can do that whilst watching the TV tonight.

    Housework-wise, I finished the kitchen and had enough time to start on the bathroom (cleaned the bath and sink). I'm really chuffed with the kitchen though, it looks good :D

    I've cleared out 10 skirts. This is mainly because I've gained so much weight and my size 8's don't have a hope of fitting now :o - half have gone into a bag and I'll put them on eBay, probably this weekend, and half are going to my sister to see if she wants them. If she doesn't, I'll sell them. There are still more in there, but it's a bit by bit job!!

    With the £10 goal, I actually earned £10.07. I didn't think I had a hope in hell, until a good Prolific survey came along!! So the £10.07 is made up of:

    £2.50 - Valued Opinions
    £0.50 - Yougov
    £0.43 - Qmee
    £0.55 - Onepoll
    £6.09 - Prolific

    Right, off to do my toenails and then will be back later to do tomorrow's list.
