Anyone fancy a (better late than never!) Sunday list!

Having only just managed to get DD down for her 9.30am nap, my day has been slightly de-railed and all I feel like doing is sitting on the sofa drinking tea and stuffing my face with malt loaf.

Anyone fancy a Sunday list as a last-ditch attempt to stay on track?

Mine is:

  1. Clean bathroom
  2. Finish job application- due Tuesday.
  3. Change the beds
  4. 15 minute blitz on myself/DP bedroom
  5. Attempt to clear some of the ironing mountain
  6. Wash work shirts for DP.

I NEED to tidy,
have a mountain of ironing
have to go to the shops for messages.
DS looks suspiciously like he doesn't need a nap so this will drastically effect my success I fear!
I'd like to unload/reload the dishwasher and clean the downstairs loo, but I fear the latter may not be possible................

Hi comely

DD has been awake already- was hoping to get a good 2 hours from her!

I have managed a couple of jobs so the list is now:

  1. Clean bathroom
  2. Finish job application due Tuesday.
  3. Change the beds
  4. 15 minute blitz on myself/DP bedroom
  5. Attempt to clear some of the ironing mountain
  6. Wash work shirts for DP.

We're just trying to get dd down for her nap now, our list today.

  1. Load of washing (done - me)
  2. Hang out washing on line (done - me)
  3. Cook lunch (done dp)
  4. Tidy kitchen cupboards (done -Dp)
  5. Cull the fridge (done - dp)
  6. Wash up after lunch (done -dp)
  7. Strip chicken
  8. Do a cull of dd's toybox (done -me)
  9. Sort out toys ^ and others upstairs to be binned/charity/put in loft.
10. Get load of washing in and away/on the airer.

I'm sure there are a few more things, I am nesting like crazy (38wks pg) so very productive at the moment. Seems to be rubbing off on dp to Grin .

Oh dear, DH took us out for the afternoon so I didn't get anything done that I'd planned. DS has just gone down so after some food maybe I'll get some ironing done, but I think I'll just have to say "tomorrow's another day".

comelywenchlywoo · 03/03/2013 20:17

Am I thrown out the thread?

Paintyourbox · 03/03/2013 20:22

Nah comely I'm not the throwing out type!

All I have left to do is ironing but as I am parked on the sofa wedging chocolate into my mouth I have to admit that it may not happen!

Glad I'm not the only one!! Tomorrow it is then!

DeathMetalMum · 04/03/2013 07:54

I went and had an afternoon nap, so only ended up stripping the chicken and quickly getting in the washing as I couldn't not do those things. Today it is!

Paintyourbox · 04/03/2013 10:02

I didn't do any ironing so I need to tackle it today while DD sleeps- chocolate won last night!

this was my (rather ambitious) Sunday list
Clothes- (done)
pants
socks
bras
pjs
dressing room
drawers

Paperwork-
Guides stuff
bookcase
admin (just about made a start...!)
desk

Bathroom-(done)
Wash mats/towels/flannels
clean

Misc-
Jewellery (done)
dust
decide next week's dinners
write shopping list
decide on meal for visiting friends in a couple of weeks,
Pay for bootcamp (done)

So, not ideal, but not outrageous either. Had a lovely lazy day with my H too so can't complain!

comelywenchlywoo · 04/03/2013 18:42

I made it to the shops!!!
Managed to get the dishwasher loaded/on/emptied
Did dogs
I WILL iron tonight if DS goes down at a reasonable hour!

Not bad since we were at baby gym this morning and visiting relatives this afternoon.

Tomorrow I'd like to hoover and tidy. It's do-able. Maybe.

comelywenchlywoo · 05/03/2013 23:51

I know I'm the only one left since it's Tuesday and Sunday was ages ago, but I got loads done today (by my standards), and I even got the ironing done.

Just wanted to share that since I'm rather chuffed about it!
