    Yeah Pink Fairy - I squeezed in the 5GC too but sadly it was only five minutes. It was lovely being in the garden though. I did the dog bits too - I can see doing 5 mins a day will be good as it will keep on top of that! Also got raked up some of the fallen leaves.

    I've managed to finish my list so feel better for that. Love the piccies of the baby. Takes me back! DD eating tea...DS home about 730.

    I've bought myself a chocolate tarty thing from Waitrose as a treat for when they're both in bed because....I deserve it!!! Lol.

    I'm with Hex and dusty with the Uggs.... I don't do heels either. Right, i've finished today's list and need to work out what I need to do xx

    Evening all - where has the time gone from when I got in from work? Strange day at work - various bits of brown stuff hitting whirling things at high levels. Makes for an interesting time methinks.

    But, I need to do SOMETHING on my manic monday list. If I get the kitchen cupboards washed, the spuds in the oven to bake for dinner and then the kitchen floor washed by 7pm can I then have a G&T as a reward as the floor dries?

    Please?

    :T Hiya

    Firstly, I've not been very friendly today so hello to everyone just starting up and hugs to anyone who needs them.

    Thought i'd make a start on tomorrow's list as i'm working for the most of the time the children are at school and i've a friend coming round in the evening. I remember when people visiting filled me with dread. So, here goes.


    Tuesday - Lovely Living Rooms and Safe Stairs
    Level One
    Vacuum floors in these areas, even if around clutter
    Clear anything from the stairs! Safe stairs are a must
    Level Two
    Move clutter so you can vacuum under it
    Vacuum and wipe (if needed) sofas
    Dust any areas below eye level
    Level Three
    Dust anything above eye level (if safe to do so)
    Clear anything that shouldn't be where it is, ahem that includes that cup!
    Wipe the bits next to the steps on the stairs, yours might be skirting board, edging of some sort, grab a cloth and give it a wipe

    Extra Mission Tasks - as usual if you fancy tackling something else you could try one or more of these
    - Spend 15 minutes sorting paperwork, dealing with anything urgent NOW
    - Wipe down window frames in these rooms (inside) clean any marks from window

    - Clean out the vacuum cleaner, empty the bag/bucket, clean filters if they are washable MAKE SURE YOU DON'T PUT THEM BACK UNTIL THEY ARE DRY!

    My extra list:
    - packed lunches
    - clean clinic
    - mop all downstairs floors
    - walk dog
    - 5minGC

    Right, lets see what I can do in a HHC 645 till 715 if anyone is up for it xx

    Mudbaths cheating again I see, sheesh! :rotfl: :p but no, sorry you can naff off as I haven't stopped since before 6pm :p

    Oh well my kitchens done, kids fed, sorted carrier bag collection, cleaned up after fed kids, fed them cake to keep them quiet (me and DP agreed the shop bought cake was disgusting!) :( more OU stuff has arrived so I've dumped that out of sight (out of mind, well that is the theory) DP still not up so not made mine or his dinner yet......starting to get annoyed, her first day back and causing issues already....promised kids he'd be back before bed as he said an hour at 2.30pm....
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
    GC: £200

    Me too for the HHC mudbath, or I will just sit here drawing up dream plant purchase lists.

    Mudbath and Pink Fairy you are doing so well.

    X-raph sorry we forgot you, I was only going on names in the title not picutes.

    Kids all fed, DS2 home from football tournament and they won. I am so proud of him he is 11 and wears age 8 clothes as he is tiny. To be in the A Basketball team takes some doing when you are vertically challenged. He does have the temperament of a bulldog though!

    DS1 cricket runs still to do. Bless he said I don't like my invigilators Mum (he is in the Gym and I'm in the Hall) can you do mine? I thought he'd be embarassed by me being there but loads of his friends have said nice things to him about me so I think he feels quite proud.

    DS3 has discovered chewing gum but just chews it for a minute then spits it in the bin and asks for anther piece.

    Still a massive hotspot in the kitchen to deal with so will do that next.
