One of those ones where you do so many mins of cleaning and then come back.

My house is a mess, I've got a ton of things to do but

  1. I have no get up and go today and
  2. I feel very dizzy from stupid tablets, so got to take it steady.

Please someone quick me up the a$£e!

My cat has hidden her kittens in a cubboard that is so full of junk i am gonna have to take it all out to find them and put them back in the box. I AM SOOOO ANNOYED AT HER.

Also my house looks like i have been burgled and hope and prey no one knocks at my door. I hate this day in and day out. So i'm gonna try to battle it today.

LadyOfTheFlowers · 15/03/2007 09:41

my house lokkslike its been burgled most days but after yesterdays cleanathon, it looks lovely!!

i have to go down the shops to the post office theni will be blitzing the kids room. ithink it is time for the boys to move into their own room!! lol because i am too lazy to cross the landing inthe night i just kept them in our room!

now i am paying the price as their room has been used as a dumping ground!

MummyPenguin · 15/03/2007 09:49

Sigh. I've got so much to do today. Have to clean bathrooms which should probably be carrying a health warning. Tidy up in general. Then sort through all DS's outgrown clothes. Then get all my ironing put away. My spare room is a dumping ground. There's ironing done waiting to be put away, piles of the stuff waiting to be done, underwear galore sitting around in natty little baskets, not really sure where they're meant to live.

Someone come and help me pleeeaaase?

Aloveheart · 15/03/2007 10:02

get on with it/!!!! lol

I'm afraid i'm leaving mine as my friend is taking me to brighton!!! so i thought bugger it i'll do it later!!! lovely sunshine here.

LadyOfTheFlowers · 15/03/2007 11:33

thanks for that ALH.very kind of you! lol
have a nice time.

i have hoovered throughout and sorted all the junk that had accumilated under ss1s cot, now i have gone to their room and i wish i hadnt opened the bloody door!
because ds2 has been sleeping in his pram till now his huge cotbed is filled with clothes waiting to be sorted.

lmao- our step in postman when usual postie is on holiday makes me laugh. he knocks the door then runs away! the dogs started barking so i rushed to the door nearly killing myself getting entangled in the tubing and answered the door with it still switched on and the brush head whirring away in his face! he looked sh!t scared! lol

am eating some hobnobs andhaving a rest a minute!

MummyPenguin · 15/03/2007 13:40

Well, I've been quite productive if that's the right word. Have cleaned bathrooms and given the limescale round the taps the vinegar treatment. Sorted out all DS's clothes in one room, have one more room to do, but that shouldn't take too long. Have loads of bags for charity collection tomorrow, as I had a sort out of my stuff earlier in the week. Will also have 2/3 bags to give to my Sister for my Nephews.

Knackered now. Sitting here with rather large mug of tea.

Aloveheart · 15/03/2007 18:00

ladyoftheflowers sorry, my friends car broke down so i didn't go to brighton anyways. lol.

Well done for getting so much done I am still tackling mine just come for a littel break.

Well done all!!!!!

LadyOfTheFlowers · 16/03/2007 14:12
