Where to start ????????

[Trix11]

Has anyone got a long list of chores that they try and do each day, and jobs they do certain days each week.

Help - I need that list. I just dont know where to start but I work well off lists.

I find a good place to start is by turning off mn - I just can't seem to get that far !

I keep coming going off starting something then just pop back and have another 'quick' look

Trix - it's something I always struggle with too and for months have meant to start a list. You've now given me the impetus to do it - so here's the start of a list. I'm sure I've missed loads of things I should be doing!

Monday

Tuesday

Dust, clean and vacuum living room and dining room
Turn and plump sofa cushions

Wednesday

Monthly

I do other things as & when necessary but doing the basics everyday helps me keep on top of it,BUT I only have one son to look after.

Thank you both. - Maybe we could keep these lists and add to them if we think of any thing else.
