I just cleaned my downstairs loo. All of it - loo, sink, skirting boards, door & handles etc

Jelley · 15/05/2007 13:38

WELL DONE YOU

Whoops

Jelley · 15/05/2007 16:04

No one else around?

I've hoovered and filled a small paddling pool with balls for ds.

I need to start in this room really (putting off tackling the girls room)

Hello all.
Lol @ link/wink/sink!
Shouldbe hope you are feeling ok now. You have made good progress today.
Luda Thanks. Stiull no WM part though. I am running out ofclothes! I only have a few ok bits of clothes. Am slowly getting to the crappy things!

I have had a good morning. DD's cake is finished. Will add a photo later. I am really pleased with it. I think DD1 will love it. Her Dora bike arrived too and is in the loft!

Just need to finish putting DS2s new draws together now.

tortoise · 15/05/2007 16:30

Off to put the draws together now!

Hello again
Have now hoovered downstairs and put away more toys than I care to mention (most of which are back out again now!) Collected dd and have finally sat with her and done her homework (which should've been done over last weekend) Need to make supper and will tackle a bit more downstairs if i get some energy.....I can at least wipe round the kitchen while the los have supper.

Tort that cake is fab well done!

shouldbe · 15/05/2007 16:48

lol yadda - forgot I still had that picture on there...better remove it really...not brave enough to put a photo of myself on

Madwelshwoman · 15/05/2007 16:53

Well today I have...

1 load of laundry washed dried and away
Nappies washed and on line
Toys cleared away
Strange urge to clean teapot thoroughly???????
Kitchen worktop cleaned

Really need to get into this Flying properly I reckon, barely fluttering at the mo!! Haven't even shined sink

Going to have a quick tidy around then have to take eldest 2 off to swim lessons by 6.

Catch you later

yaddayah · 15/05/2007 17:01

Waves to madwelshwoman

i always used to forget to take the teabags out ... not good (hence teabags in mugs now chez yadd )

Madwelshwoman · 15/05/2007 17:04

Waves to Yadda

See that's how useless I am I should be tidying before swimming and I'm still sat at the pc!!!

Yes I do get urges to clean strange things. The whole house may be a mess but if I decide the front of the washer or the coasters are a disgrace then I'll quite happily spend ages doing it, I have no priorities!!

Off to check the state of the coasters now.......

grouchyoscar · 15/05/2007 17:04

Patch is fine thanks Yaddah S/He has been for a ...slime (can't say walk really) round his terrarium and is happily stuck to it. S/He has tons to nosh on and I might put some soil in for tomorrow

Been writing letters to the bank to get charges refunded this aft. DS has gone to sleep and I think he's growing again. (he tend to sleep loads then expand)

I've vacced up too btw

Hey! The sun is peeping out, hurrah!
