Morning Jas, I just usually do the mission when I finish everything else. My goal is to have everything finished by nine in the mornings.

Maybe Kelly will have set a mission by then. You are good, getting it all done early. Do you go out to work, or are just just really organised?

I'm doing the bathroom first today, plus I need to find something to entertain the children in the rain.

Just like to get the day started I guess, no I don't work. I find it easier to get most of the housework done while dd and DH are still in bed. They get up around 8 so it gives me an hour to finish things off. I don't know why I feel I have to do it before nine.

Why don't you take them to the movies. Thats my favorite rainyday activity

Morning Jas and paula

I'm a bit like you paula...I like to get all the daily tasks like D/w and W/M on and running first thing. You sound like you manage to keep on top quite well.

jas how about swimming?

Right I have a fair bit to do and we are all off to a birthday party at noon so need to get a wriggle on. Everyone needs a bath, and the house needs sorting out before I go too.

Will pop back to see if the mission has updated in a bit.

Morning all.

I've been a busy bee this weekend and have painted my ensuite bathroom. It is a bright blue/ A bit darker than I hoped for but with the white suite & tiles it looks ok.

I also defrosted both of my freezers

DH is working. The rest of the house is in chaos as a result of my work at the weekend but DD2 has just dropped off and DD1 is watching her favourite DVD so I'm going to try and tidy up downstairs now.

tortoise · 28/05/2007 10:25

GS Wow, well done you.
