Evening All

Hope you are all well. Had a very exhausting week at work, thank god its friday tomorrow!!

Also had a very productive week at home as well. I've done all my flying for this week (except for my dailies) May have to run the vacuum round the house the weekend but that it.:j

Just about to start tea, then going to chill out for the rest of the evening.

Take Care

DH has gone upstairs for a bath so I have at least an hour of peace and quiet. Its weird but because he is at home (not working) he has found loads to do during the day but seems to want my undivided attention in the evenings. He has been chopping kindling and tidying the garden so is soaked and really cold.

sexymouse get well soon, make sure you get loads of rest before you go back into the classroom full of germs! Each time I changed school I ended up with something horrible or else I seemed to have a permanent cold for the first term.

emmb so pleased to hear that things are going your way at last and you have something good to look forward to.

I have to admit that I still didn't get upstairs to do my bedroom, I got kind of side tracked by the dog who thought my hall was his toilet. I also could smell a doggy wee wee smell when sitting at my desk, so tried to crawl around to find the source and used a washing powder solution as someone recommended a few weeks ago and the smell has gone.:j

Wow, ended up having an hour and a half challenge!

Dishes washed
Baby cooked for and fed (minger had liver and onions with sweet potato and pasta - shopping coming tomorrow, can you tell? - but also smuggled in mouthfuls of malt loaf that she'd hidden between her legs. Gross)
Bathroom S and S'd
Kitchen all S and S'd
Hallway cleared
Sitting room cleared

Whew! I feel much better, but now am snoozy. Off to get something to eat. See you all later. x

Hi Guys

Not been on this thread for ages...I got a bit addicted to entering comps and dthe house has really suffered for it.
I dont know what it is about Jan but it always make my house seem really grubby.
I really do need to get back into my routine that I had as I'm either going to sell or rent the house out towards the end of this year or early next and its really making me panic how much I have to do.
SO baby steps again for me...going to get the kids in bed now and get on with one or two of the rooms until OH gets back from work.

started well this week but then all went downhill when I got ill Tues night/weds morning. Feeling a bit better now so I really need to get on top of things again. Can someone tell me how the half hour challenge works?

Got most things done on today's list so happy with that just need to swish and swipe the kitchen before bed and remember to have an early night tonight:o

Right then tommorrow the kids rooms both look like a bomb has gone off in them!

Finally Friday - those terrible kids rooms and spare rooms
Level One
Vacuum Floor (even if it's just where you can see)
Level Two
(kids rooms) Strip beds, vacuum mattress and replace with fresh linen
(spare rooms) Check if linen or curtains need a wash
Level Three
Dusting and cobweb checking inc the high reach places if safe to do so
Put anything back in it's place that isn't where it should be - if this task is huge just spend 10 minutes on it
Extra Mission Task Choices

• Time for the Friday Flylady Fling, aim for 27, if you can't find that many, well done, you are obviously making a difference
• Sort through some toys/books/clothes even if it's just for 10 miutes, making sure any broken ones are dealt with/flung, dirty ones get wiped/washed before putting them back and anything that should be parted with is gone!
  
• Clean kids rooms windows and the sills!
  
• Wipe any sticky marks off doors and walls in the kids rooms, may aswell wipe the lightswitches and handles over too
• Spend 10 minutes making any important calls or doing paperwork filing
  

FRIDAY EXTRA - Don't forget your ME time this weekend, even if it's just a nice relaxing bath or catching up with an old friend, go on you deserve it!!

Hope you all have a good evening see you later!

Will follow the list tomorrow as DS's room is in need of a through clean
