I have spent far too much time on here this holidays so this is my arse kicking thread!

Have done the bits an bobs through the lounge and dining room already,but need to hoover and mop. Kitchen next as it is a bomb site.

Sigh.

Put on some good sing along songs and dance your ways through the jobs. That's what I do when I need motivation

I tried putting music on to sort my kitchen out. However dd (6) is now dancing all over the place Hmm

Loads of time until 11! Get washing on now and start collecting clothes from around the house and a bag of rubbish.

Downstairs including kitchen and cloakroom and porch done except the hoovering and mopping!

We are having furniture delivered so need to also tackle the teens room and bag up two mattresses. Grim.

I feel your pain four dc here and my house is like a bloody bomb site.
Dh has taken them out for the day and I plan to tackle it just as soon as I've finished this nice peaceful coffee......Grin

Yep! Reaches the needing a coffee stage!

Just the hoovering all over to do now, then the beds. The teens bathroom was truly grim Envy

You have teens. I hope they are helping!

QuckTheDuck · 13/08/2019 11:21

I did it! Grin
They helped take down the bed and stashed all their crap in baskets and helped hoover their room. I did the rest.
Mattresses are outside and van ten minutes away!
