DH is asleep and I need to do some cleaning. Ideally I need to tidy the dining room, sweep and mop the floors, take all the crap outside, put out the rubbish, make it smell nice, sweep and mop the hall, have a bath/shower, mop the floor and clean sink/toilet/vath/shower and get all the clean dishes put away.

The issue is that I need them done now, tonight. I have 3 DC's under 4 all say tomorrow and I'm feeling quite achey with fibro so if I have a bad day tomorrow, I'm buggared.

Please motivate me!

Take the crap and rubbish out, then make a cup of tea.
Put a great song on, or the radio, and put the dishes away to it.
Set the kitchen timer for 10mins and tidy the worst of the dining room. Stop when the timer stops.

Do a very quick mop of the floor and then quick-clean the bathroom while your bath is running.

Then have your bath and enjoy it. Leave the rest if there is any to DH or until tomorrow.

Thank you. I've done the dining room and the kitchen plus swept and mopped the hall. I've made a cup of tea and I'm going to do the bathroom while the bath is running and read in the bath while the floor dries. DH has woken up and will tidy the living room for me :D
