I managed my challenges for last week, finish magazine deliveries and clean house for visitors. Today we have shifted a lot of my stuff from the 3rd bedroom to my new office space in the new extension. Challenge for this week is to try and keep the new office area tidy as it is now on show downstairs and the clut can't be hidden by shutting the bedroom door anymore. I also need to tidy up the old office space including the cupboard where a lot of files will remain in storage.

I can understand the desk at work needing doing, Natzini. My problem with that is that the boss comes and uses the computer while I'm not in, and leaves the desk a mess that I have to sort the next day!!! P's me off!!

I'm keeping up with my changes, but it is only Tuesday!

My change this week is to not buy ANYTHING except bread. This all hinges on a Tesco delivery tomorow, though, so it might not work.

Please can I join? I love challenges but rarely achieve them so one challenge a week might be possible! My challenge for this week will be to spend some 'fun time' with my girls every day. By this I mean not just helping with homework, bathtime etc. which we get bogged down with each day, but something that we wouldn't normally do.

That's the good thing about one challenge a week - it's much more achievable than trying to change a whole lot of things at once :rolleyes:

My previous weeks challenges:

• Keep up with inbox and computer desk; They are tidy.
  
• Do a load of washing each night. Done.
  

Will add to it this week:

• Get kids and OH to help with one housework type job each evening DS4 brought in the washing and put it on the airer for me. Funny how DS3 suddenly had homework tonight . . . OH got dinner in the crockpot ready for tomorrow night.

Managed this weeks challenges OK, so need to add one for this week.
As the weather has got warm I think making sure I drink water is a good one - 2 large glasses a day minimum to start with.

Still hanging in . . .

My previous weeks challenges:

• Keep up with inbox and computer desk; They are tidy, but only because I've done nothing at them LOL
  
• Do a load of washing each night. Done.
  

Will add to it this week:

• Get kids and OH to help with one housework type job each evening DS3 has been doing homework for the last three nights - unheard of before this!!! Washing has come in off the line by DS4, and he dried the dishes last night. OH basically got dinner sorted last night.

Everyone must be doing really well

I'm keeping up OK, but the place does seem to get messier toward the end of the working week.

Got the kids to vacuum last night, and they have been getting the washing in regularly - so that helps heaps.

Inbox has stuff in it, but it's not unmanageable
