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!

Quootiepie · 09/08/2006 15:21

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
