Have a good day Josie.

zoo you can do it. The room doesn't have to be perfect or finished. All you have to do today is 15 mins. Just 15 puny minutes. You can do that!

CatsSleepAnywhere · 30/04/2012 11:02

Have just cleared some toys back up to bedrooms and hoovered living room floor. I can't believe that took nearly an hour! Shock
DD has a habit of bringing a toy down from upstairs every time we come home from being out so during the week that is 2 toys a day.

I am now having a rest and a Brew

Well done Cats. Maybe litte kitten needs a new job of putting her 2 toys away at bedtime with a sticker or smiley face on her chart every time she does it.

Ta Das:

folded and put away an enormous amount of laundry
ironed an enormous amount of laundry (there is still stuff on the pulley though)
wrapped all the ebay stuff that has been paid for
cleaned kitchen table
