Saturday - Today I will...

[CeliaFate]

I thought I'd start a new thread in the manner of once it's done you can cross it off the list, so the old thread has been done and we don't have to think about it any more till the next time it needs doing. Hurrah!

Today I will...
Wash uniform plus 2 other loads
Change ds's bed
Clean bathrooms
Hoover and polish upstairs
Empty all bins
Have a general declutter of surfaces

The 15 minute timer idea from Flylady really works. For those who don't know, it's easy. You put the timer on for 15 minutes and do a job. When the timer goes off you stop and have a 15 minute break (also timed). Repeat. I did 2 hours housework this way and never felt like I'd had enough.

Happy Saturday!

Sorry, hadn't seen this thread before I posted on toast week's one so have c&p'd!

I'm signing in!

My list:

1. work out a money planner (need to find a way to get a mortgage and don't really have any idea of my my total income/outgoings ...and I used to be so on the ball)
2. clear piles of crap off the top of the toy cupboard
3. sort ou the recycling
4. sort out Playmobil dolls house furniture (seem to have two of everything at the moment)
5. edit eBay listings
6. change beds
7. find somewhere to get my rug cleaned

I'm not sure if I'll get all of those things done...

...just remembered

8. 3 loads of washing
9. clean kitchen
10. clean bathroom

I'm joining in today too.

1. do dishes
2. put washing in the machine and dry
3. change the beds
4. do some internet banking
5. squirt bleach around both the toilets
6. change the bins
7. hoover downstairs

Can I join in? Todays list -

1. two wash loads
2. hang them out because it's not raining. Yay
3. clean the bathroom

I know it's not much but I have to take dd to dancing, take ds1 to my mums and take dh to his hobby. Then I have to pick them all up again and fit in going to the shops.

I wonder if going "public" about my to do list will kick start me?! Well, here goes..

1. clean inside of car with hoover and then soapy cloth. 2 dogs moulting...
2. do humungous pile of ironing
3. rethread my overlocker which necessitates plugging in dvd player to watch it being done cos I can't understand the bl**dy instruction book. It stands between me and a finished pair of pyjamas which I have been making for DH since OCTOBER!

If I can complete this list, I do believe my Karma will improve

PS Have not included taxiing DS to and from matches this afternoon, 3 loads of washing (so far), walking dogs, booking family holiday.....

I'm glad I'm not alone :)

I love these threads. I've already hung a load of washing out. My list is:
Cut grass
Ironing
Sort paperwork out I've just caught up on 2 years shredding so want to keep on top!
Pick up parcel from main post office
Pick up prescription

I'll probably be out till about 4 so most of it will be done when I get back!

Have already arranged with dh to clear off with the the dcs for a bit so I can crack on with :

• washing (one load in)
• tidy /decluttering kitchen
• clean living room
• declutter porch and get rid of winter stuff
• clean bathroom
• put dry clothes away
• Hoover bedrooms
• tidy/declutter our bedroom
• Ebay pile and may e start photos

I know I can't get it all done but heyhoo you can't get it all done if you don't know what needs to be done.

Oh and the shopping!
