No one has to join me, but I need to motivate myself to have everything clean and tidy before my Christmas guests arrive. So...

Sunday: laundry and ironing, clean kitchen cupboards and ready for Christmas goodies, clean cooker (eurgh)
Monday: prepare guest bedroom, sort through DS's toys in preparation for new ones
Tuesday: clean our bedroom and DS's bedroom, dining room and hallways
Wednesday: laundry and ironing, last minute shopping
Thursday: bake, bake, bake followed by clean kitchen
Friday: clean bathroom and living room
Saturday morning: whizz around with Hoover and polish and ready for guests!

I'm almost done this will be the most organised I've ever been. Sending DH and DS out tomorrow morning so I can whizz around with the hoover and the duster.
Presents are wrapped (bar one that arrived today). Bit more ironing to do (namely tablecloth and napkins).
I'm beginning to feel quite festive!
