tonights update will read as cleaned the kitchen floor but the oven has not been touched and didn't managed any of lil-me's extras but did finish the christmas shopping today and I have updated my tesco order for friday from the cupboard/freezer check, so all in all not a bad day.
Will check the list for tomorrow but will sneak in with a head start as for some reason - unknown to me- oh and kids started to declutter and polish the living room tonight without being asked or shouted at, maybe the christmas spirit is finally getting them!!!0 -
