Just dropped the children off at school.
I really should be getting on now rather than procrastinating on here Grin
I haven't included cooking tea, going to work or doing the school runs on my to do list as they're every day occurances that don't need listing as such but I've just written a to do list and there are 13 things on there to be done today!

How many things on yours?

I could probably write one with a lot more than 13 things on it, but I’m a big fan of keeping things realistic. Grin

1 load of washing
Change bedding
Wipe kitchen cupboard doors
Mop kitchen floor

Quite a few as I've taken the day off work. Mine are sanding and priming a new door frame, planting things in the garden and watering and making some hot cross buns in the bread maker.

This morning I'm going to put a load of washing on then take the DC to the park. DH will do some cleaning and tidying while we are out. This afternoon he is taking them to a friend's garden while I work on job applications.

  1. 1 load of washing
  2. tidy bedrooms
  3. sort DS wardrobe
  4. do some work on uni essay
  5. uni zoom lecture at 15:30

Making my way through them, DH is off tomorrow so he can help maintain tidiness which is a massive help.

Flowers I’m sorry for your loss.

BalladOfBarryAndFreda · 01/04/2021 09:54

Oh @IWantMyHoney, I’m so sorry. How are you doing? Flowers

NewMumma1819 · 01/04/2021 09:54

I have loads to do (whilst contending with a 1 year old) but today we're:

Washing the dog runs out
Doing 3 load of laundry
Putting dry laundry away
Collect car from MOT (it passed 😁)
See if I can plant anymore seeds in greenhouse
Buy niece a second dairy free easter egg (the first one melted on the windowsill, massive aunty fail 🤦‍♀️)
Make a quiche for lunch
And maybe do some Easter crafts with DS...

mum2jakie · 01/04/2021 10:25

Sorry for your loss @IWantYourHoney

Well done for even making a list!

I'm trying to keep my task list short and manageable as I have a day off to myself before the kids break up for Easter tomorrow.

Dishwasher on
wash on
Load put away
Hoover
Change one bed (I have to stagger them otherwise I struggle to get all the bedding washed and dried)

Just need to do a top up shop, online payment and I've got a medical appointment this afternoon

mum2jakie · 01/04/2021 10:25

Apologies I got your username wrong @IWantMyHoney

Not very much today really, waiting for work to come in from a client but there's been a hold up which means I get a surprise day of 'relaxation'. I write it like that because I want to try and catch up on everything I'd usually do over the weekend so we can just relax and have some Easter fun!

JMAngel1 · 01/04/2021 11:28

Dishwasher
Hoover
2 hours work admin
Reference 2 Uni course work pieces - I hate referencing
Breakfast/lunch/dinner and tidy up
Take DDs to park for a couple of hours to meet their friends
Sort out easter eggs and MILs birthday present wrapping/card
Order curtains from Ikea and a curtain pole
Do Apri Fool pranks with DDs on DH

Feeling very anxious and stressed tbh
