Good morning, good morning! I am feeling shattered this morning, coffee is in order to get me through! Well I'm leaving the link to the next clever person who comes along! Will be back with a list after the school run.

Blimey - Babies, EHM, Stacey - what's Flylady doing to us!! Hugs and lots of love to the sick ones...

Luda - I need a good kick too. I'll give us both one. Here >>>>

Right, my list for now:
1)unpack shopping
2)put laundry out to dry
3)clear cupboard understairs (big hotspot)
4)mission
5)disinfect dustbin

EHM Hope you're soon better x x

I've emptied the contents of our understairs cupboard into the middle of the room and am now in that awful situation where things are soooo bad I have no choice but to plough on - not a bad thing in some ways but I now have to go and collect ds and know he'll want to help me tidy it all away again...
The recyling/shredding pile box is overflowing - I had magazines going back years and old blank videos, old bank statements school newsletters and sooo many photographs they're a whole new job to be tackled at another time.....Photos of the kids have made me cry at the thought of never having a baby again - they're so lovely at that age, it seems so long ago....
Better go and collect ds then get sorting. There's lots of space in the cupboard, it just wasn't being used properly so I have hopes for re-stocking it in a better fashion - I just wish I had some inspiration as to quite how that'll be....

Madwelshwoman · 16/05/2007 12:47

2 loads of laundry - washed but not dried, tentatively looking out of window at big clouds one load now on line so bound to rain now and other load on airer
Sort out boy's wardrobe
Shred big box of paperwork
Vacuum downstairs

Decided that everything else can wait as I'm taking ds in his buggy down the shop for a walk save using the car as dp had taken other ds out for the day

Madwelshwoman · 16/05/2007 12:49

Shouldbe

I know that feeling well with the baby photos dd made me dig all hers out to put in an album she had for her birthday and I nearly burst into tears every time I see it!!

Good luck with the decluttering I do that every so often with the kids toy box, nightmare!!

Madwelshwoman · 16/05/2007 12:52

shouldbe · 16/05/2007 16:33

that you have finished your cupboard under the stairs Luda...mine is still work in progress! It is tidy now and I've even managed to clear some bits from the utility room into it but the surrounding area in the living room is awful. This is partly because I am also trying to set up some files for all the bank statements etc so everything needs to be out for a little longer while I get a system in place. The kids are watching cbeebies for a bit now and are restricted to sitting still on one sofa so as not to disturb anything! It's quite depressing in the room but if you open the cupboard it's great

Better go and get supper going - dd has Rainbows soon.
