Managing the mayhem in March - who wants motivation to babystep through the month with us?

[carrotsandcelery]

Starting from March 1st lets babystep our way through the month, throwing in the odd mission.

Sign up here if you want to join in.

We have pointy sticks -> to get you off the sofa and chocolate and stickers as rewards.

Let's end our CHAOS and enjoy our sparkly homes.

I will definitely need the timer today. Can I join in. I hope to tackle the ironing and the sideboard today.

wanders off to sweep the stairs...will be back at 10 .30

Yes, the more the merrier!

What time shall we all start? or
do you want to just do what fits in around you?

Right, ironing board is out, basket of hangers is on the sofa, rubbish tv is on, 3 items are ironed. It's a start. I am off to do some more.

That should have said 8 things - I forgot the trousers!

I have had enough. I am having a rest and then I am going to tackle the sideboard.

Some paperwork done Yay!

Well done all!

Ta da list
I have washed and dressed to shoes
Breakfast for DH and DCs
Walked ds1 to school and home
Went on my course (NVQ Catering & Hospitality)
Walked back to school to pick ds1 up and home
Now have to decide what to cook them for lunch (and tea for that matter)
I'm soooo lacking in food inspiration atm. Probably because everything I cook them gets thrown away by at least one of them and ends up with them having weetabix instead

I can see my sideboard. Yay!

It needs dusted though - how does it get dusty when it is totally covered in stuff?

I really, really need to adopt the habit of chucking out the majority of my post when it comes in the door and filing the rest of it.

* babystep 12 *

It is the "delete flylady emails" one so if you don't get emails then you have one less thing to do today

this week's missions

On the mission front, I cleaned the worktops and basin yesterday and decluttered thoroughly a month or so ago which is still under control so I think I can jump straight to cleaning the mirrors which definitely needs to be done.

1 x wash up done.

2 hotspots cleared and fire polished

job done...clean and tidy

I'm off to do more washing up. I need to keep my mind busy so I don't spend too much time worrying about tomorrow.
