I should be in bed.............but I just want to write an 'online' list of things.......

[fannyannie]

that I WILL get done tomorrow. I'll no doubt be up in 4hrs time (there abouts) so I'll write my list now (yes I should already be in bed I know I know I know ).

Things that will get done tomorrow (including the blindingly obvious

Empty Dishwasher
Get Dressed
Dress DS3
Breakfast
Lunch
Dinner
Tidy Kitchen (the 'aftermath' of preparing and cooking the dinner - also includes loading dishwasher)
Tidy Bookcase
Wipe cupboard doors down
Mop (or at the very least Sweep) Kitchen Floor
Load of washing
Ironing (if it's dry in time)
Make DS1's bed (clean sheets everyday as he will NOT wear nappy/pjpants etc etc but still wets the bed )
Pop to Morrisons (few bits and pieces to see me until Monday when the Child Benefit comes in)
Dust other bookcase
Bottles (wash, sterilise and make 'em up)

Yes I bet you all think I'm bonkers - but I'm on here instead of doing it I'll see my list in "theads I'm on" and feel compelled to do it (otherwise list lives downstairs and I can't see it so forget about it )

Right now that's it I'm off to bed. May add more stuff (obvious things to make me feel like I've done loads ) tomorrow

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE????????????

GO START THE HOUSEWORK

(for when you come back in the morning )

I was just cheking my list .

Well I'm dressed, DS3 is dressed, I've emptied the dishwasher, done a load of washing (not sure whether to hang outside or in the house so may leave it 1hr or so to see whether the weather does clear up), we've all had breakfast so it's just the rest of the stuff that needs doing

I know I'm only talking to myself - but hey it beats the continual conversation from 6 and 3yrs old DS's, and 7 week old gurgles .

But the only things left on my list are

Tidy Bookcase (nearly finished - got most of the stuff off it and chucked loads away now just needs replacing)
Wipe cupboard doors down (done most of them - 3 left to do)
Mop (or at the very least Sweep) Kitchen Floor (hmm not sure whether I'll do this today or leave until tomorrow now......)
Ironing (if it's dry in time) (just put the clothes back on the line as it started raining earlier - should be dry in about 1 1/2-2hr time so I may do it then)
Dust other bookcase (I'll definitley do this tonight)

Fannie Annie,If you want some other manic listers may I suggest you join the fly threads, we don't bite and (very occasionally) we actually get some of our lists finished

Great list BTW can I borrow it ?

Reading that back it sounds a bit sarky (it wasn't meant to be)

nah - I've tried "flying" 3 times before (over decent lengths of time to give it a chance) and it just didn't work for me........I'll stick to my list taa

Besides - I'll NEVER get my lists finished - a) as long as I've got 75% of them done I'm happy b) I've got a 7 week old which makes life rather unpredictable - some days just having fed and watered the older DS's is miracle enough

Fair do's
My list for today was to drink a cup of tea...

how did it go fannyannie?

hmm not great - I've ground to a halt....- see my "Why is it.........." in "parenting" to see why .

I may yet get off the chair and do some more - but unlikely...oh actually I lie - I have to finish the bookcase - all the "stuff" that lives on it are strewn across the dining room table at the moment

could you just do the top two jobs to be done or the worst two - to get them done. you are busy though with your baby and other kids - perhaps a rest would be best.
