@ the bumbo on the counter!

Im back!
After a really tough few weeks (Dh has had a mental breakdown and severe depression) Things are now hopefully on the way up.
Im ready to tackle ALL my rooms that have fallen to disarray whilst looking after Dh and the children.
My eldest starts school tomorrow, and I am determined to have all my rooms in order/organised and clutter free by the time he starts school full time (4 weeks away).
I cant live in the mess anymore!!
Nice to be back

Good to see you back.Hope things are improving.
Don't put too much pressure on yourself to get all done.Remember baby steps.

vacuum
feather dust
mops floors
polish mirrors/doors

JessaJam · 04/09/2006 14:21

FLYlady says not all these activities will take all 10 minutes so should end up being an hour...

Apparently we are all supposed to read magazines constanly and therefor ehave massive teetering pile so fthem all over the place...

mummy2ashton · 04/09/2006 14:25

JessaJam · 04/09/2006 14:28
