I'm suppose to be leaving here in about 50 minutes to go for a "sleepover" at DP's house with the DS's.

My house is in quite a state - I have 2 immaculate kitchen worktops - a kitchen floor that I would rather pretend isn't there , I've put a load of washing on the line - it can stay there until it dries and all my dishes are done.

The lounge is a mess as well - do I spent the next 50 minutes racing round like an idiot trying to make sure we've got what we need for our overnight stay and tidying up, or do I just stuff the lot of it and sort it out tomorrow evening (we're coming back here in the morning, but have stuff planned out of the house during the day).....

I want to just leave it.........

Who will see it??? LEave it and sort it later.
Though checking to make sure you have everything you need would be a good idea

Just go out. Never let the housework get in the way of actually having a life.

No-one will see - as no-one else has a key and it's just me and the DS's here.

I'm just so used to not going away for the night and leaving the house a mess that it somehow feels wrong

as long as the toilets are clean and you can get to the kettle and fridge upon return, then leave the rest. tis only for a night....

for a week I would suggest leave later and clean (as that is what I do), but not for one night.

go, have fun
