Currently, mine is my kitchen. We don't have the room we used to use as an office anymore as DS2 sleeps in there so everything gets dumped on the side. It doesn't actually take that long to sort out but it is getting roung to it. My draining board is always full of drying pots too.

my whole house is a tip at the mo.
we have had a conservatory built and the attic converted so we are waist deep in plaster dust and just have crap every where.
its getting me own a bit BUT next week is week 8 of it all and it is the last week so will be able to paint, lay new flooring and will then be able to clean clean clean.

we emptied the loft of so much crap prior to the work bieng done and it was utterly cleansing so cant wait to tackle the rest of the house.

am very posh with my conservatory and loft grin

kitchen. 2 teenagers plus dd needs 6 cooked meals a day. Plus recyling and shopping.
Its driving me nuts but everytime I clean it up one of the kids spills baked beans or chops something. Its like an endless treadmill <runs off screaming hysterically>

The big bedroom....currently shared by DD2 and ds, aged 7 and 2. Lots of toys for mixed ages, not enough storage, and lots of clothes. Add in most of dps and my clothes, plus our double matress due to us having no bedroom while we are doing other building work, and I really have no chance.

Our bedroom.

Apart from the usual bed, wardrobe and chest of drawers it's also home to the computer and printer, the clothes airer, the laundry bin, the ironing basket, most of our books, piles of outgrown clothes etc etc

our bedroom.

I pootle in every other room while the kids are knocking about, but our room will take hours and I don't want to leave them while I do it, don't want them in there with me while I do it, and weekends are too precious to do it then.

Kitchen and living room, always cluttered and I can de clutter the kitchen one day and it mysteriously attracts more by the following day.

OUr bedroom and the kitchen. Every available surface in the kitchen is covered in 'stuff'. I have to keep putting things out of reach of the kids.

ds1 bedroom is a tip. I think he follows in his dad's footsteps as his study is not particulary tidy grin.

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
