Ive done the normal morning routine of getting up,dressed,dc dressed and all fed then i cleaned out under the sink as someone mentioned it the other day and it was an easy one to do!!
I still haven't put the piles of washing away.
I have 3 hours peace now.ds1 and ds2 at their dads and dd1 and dd2 at their dads.
Now someone tell me what i should do!

we have to begin our control journal... writing down "get dressed" and stick pon bathroom mirror, and "keep sink shiny" and stick above sink.

Im going to give my self a gold star! .Huge pile of washing has just been put away.Just one basket to go.Thought i would have a 5 min break.
Won't it look daft if a friend comes round and you have post its everywhere reminding you to shine your sink etc? I think i can remember without a note!

Today's kitchen challenge was to sort out the tupperware and throw out the ones with no lid etc.

That was easy because I only have about 3 pieces of tupperware!

But now I have had an email telling me how to avoid constipation (not something which is troubling me today after a night on the vino, TMI!)

shazronnie · 09/08/2006 15:55

tortoise - I decided to forgo the post it note - that would make my house look soooo messy!

Quootiepie · 09/08/2006 15:56

im not doing the notes either. I dont want the HV to come round and see a note on my mirror telling me to get dressed!!

LOL quootiepie!

coggy · 09/08/2006 15:58

Quootie - LOL!!!

I've noneed to sort my tupperware as I did it a couple of weeks back - Aren't I good!!?

I also have 8 sink-shing teatowels drying on the line!!

tortoise · 09/08/2006 16:01

I forgot to buy more tea towels! I don't have one hanging up at the moment-they are all wet.Washing nearly finished and should soon dry.
I quite fancy a cupboard clear out.No tupperware but loads of plastic tubs and lids.
I will go and do last basket of washing then the cupboard.
I'd never of done it without this thread!

Quootiepie · 09/08/2006 16:02

ive just re-shined my sink from scratch ... im not getting too adventerous (sp???) as ill get a burst of enthusiasm (sp?) then trail off.

I like the idea of setting timers

I just did 15 mins cleaning the fridge out (I'm in the Kitchen Zone) because I have no flaming tupperware to speak of so I thought I'd do something else from the more full-on lists

and boy, was it nice when the timer went off

tortoise · 09/08/2006 18:40

I think my fridge is tomorrows job! Something has been spilt and is dried on at the bottom! Its starting to smell!

Quootiepie · 09/08/2006 18:42
