[Jas]

Mission

Morning Guys.

Not going anywhere today so need to get a move on with the cleaning.

Please can someone give me an important hosework job to do every hour today and then if I come back having done nothing I will feel terribly guilty.

Not even dressed yet so off for a shower now and will give the bathroom a S&S afterwards.

Morning

Thanks for the thread Jas

To do today

Buy cat Food, bulb and Battreys
Clean Conservatory Floor for new Sofa
Get Prescription from Doctors and take to chemist
Furniture delivery x 2
Put all clothes in new to us bedroom furniture and tidy bedroom and change bed
Soft garage a bit for drinks
Wash car if have time - it gets so dirty

My tip for today is get a wipe and wipe off your car headlights, number plates and brake lights - DH was stopped my police man last night (he lives near by) and asked to do this, we only washed tha cars on Sunday, but the roads are so grotty

Well off to sort the rugrats - catch you all later

Waves to FGS - erm not so good with the things to do - hence why I needed to Fly.

How are you all feeling this morning?

Morning Jas, THM and FGS

FGS I hope you remembered to s&s the bathroom after your shower Next job is to unload/load the dw and s&s the kitchen (HTH)

I have till 1.30 before the kids come out of school so need to get the house straight and sort some presents ready for a wrapping fest this evening.

Dd and I had a wonderful time carol singing last night and I came home feeling all festive and Christmassy Looking forward to it all a bit more now. Dh is relaxing already as he finished up most of his office work last night so perhaps we'll survive the holidays after all...

Right, better go and finish my morning routine, then get the presents gathered together. Back later x

Ooh Ooh, well done Bianca. Yes I have SS'ed the bathroom. I have done the dishwasher but will go and give the kitchen a quick once over thanks...

Morning all

I have an exciing trip o the bank planned oday, then more FLYing. I'm not dressed yet either[blus I haven't even fed the dc yet (DD1 is the one who always asks for breakfast first, and she still hasn't go her appetite back from being ill last week.)

Can anyone recommend an easy to use ecard site (free)? I can't find anything that doesn't have only tacky rude cards, and I want to send one to my mum......

My washing basket isempy and I even mopped the kitchen before bed last night. I need to keep the momentum going so I'l get dressed, feed everyone and come back later.

OK, I have cleaned the kitchen surfaces and done a hotspot while I was at it.

DD2 is playing quietly in the playroom and DD1 is watching Bob the Builder

Will go and unload the w/m. Can someone come up with another job for me? I will then feel this 'eager to please' sensation which I do not feel when lookign at my enormous list of things to do....

Jas - nice ecards

Morning All

jas thanks for the mission & the thread.
FGSYou are insiring me again with your drive to get things done. You could wipe out the fridge?
bianca THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PARCEL FOR ELLIE & THE LOVELY CARD.[FGRIN]So kind & thoughtful of you. Its just been delivered & I've placed it beneath the tree.
TMH thanks for the tip.I'll get DH to do that before we leave tomorrow.

I am doing whole house today before we had off for the festive Period tomorrow.

to all to follow must go & get on.

eeewwww. EHM - The fridge.

OK, just put DD2 to bed and DD1 now has lazy town (we are having a TV day to rest and get over a busy week in case anyone was wondering )

Right, fridge it is. Wish me luck.

good luck FGS I am off to do the same as freezer is defrosting...uck!

FGS put away anything from the living room which doesn't belong in there

I am ploughing through the last few Christmas cards and sorting the presents which we need to give to friends we'll see this weekend.

I have a load of washing on, all the beds are made and the house is basically tidy

I want to get everything done as I need to watch a Christmas film with the kids when they get home as we need to return it to the library before 4.30 this afternoon

Missed those posts, you're already doing the fridge FGS...I might do mine too in a while. It needs a clean inside and out before we get the groceries in.

EHM parcel arrived quickly it was only posted yesterday! Glad it got there in time before you go away x

Ok. The fridge was nearly empty as DH is going out tonight to do our Christmas Food shop so it wasnt so bad. Perhaps I have been flying for a while, non?

I did the inside of the microwave at the same time. I never use it but DH does. It was worse than the fridge

Also, got a microfibre cloth and shined my coffee, sugar, and tea canisters while the kitchen spray soaked in to the fridge

Feel like I am very much on a roll so now going to try and do Bianca's lovely living room suggestion. It's not too bad as we had bistors last week and I had to hide lots of things.....Back in a bit..

Watching a christmas film sounds lovely..

Jas - Tomorrow

we have just returned home and it is old dear madness at the moment took me 25 mins to find a park adn then 1 hour in shop for 1 bag full of stuff,

I have come back to a letter from the hospital my test date is 7 January, with about a four week wait for the resultsm however, we will be discussing survery and stuff at this next appointmment so DH is coming with me.

Off to heat up lunch pre made sausage cas and mash (got it out of the freezer before we left)

Bit more organised (have .. whisper... thrown a few old toys out)

Eaten cheese on toast and cleaned the kitchen

Waiting for MIL .. ho hum...

Hi Ladies,

I won the battle!! have done Sainsbury's - now have to decide whether to tell Dh how much the bill was.. I couldn't resist adding in a few extra decorations and some nicer paper napkins for the party on Sunday. Hmm With party food & Drink (no alcohol) it came to £200!!!!!!!!!!

There are about 60 people coming though so can't really pass round a mini pack of dry roasted peanuts. Thank God we are going to Mums for Christmas!!!

Anyway more ironing to do and going to put the new decorations up and see if Dh notices.

Hope everyone is well..

Hi Guys,

Back. Loving room has been tidied (a bit) and dusted.

Ruby - hope your bin bag is now overflowing ;)

Madhouse - hopefully you'll be able to not think about all the medical stuff over Christmas as you'll be so busy!

Yaddah - well done on the toy cull. I have created a secret drawer in the playroom bookcase. Toys unused for a while are going in there and if not missed will go to toy heaven.

Jen - I think you've done well if that is for Christmas AND a party!

HI guys...I havn't been around at all much lately, I havn't even been doing much MNing.

I have been doing minimal FLYing (Shiney sink once a week & S&S once a week )

I just wanted to wish you all Merry Christmas and a Happy new year.

I hope/plan to be back in January to get my life organised.

Right now I am off to give the elves a helping hand to ensure that their inventary is all in order ....I may be gone a while!!!!

Hi All

Just had a call from DH he will be home at 3pm - wee hee

Furniture has arrive and all OK, really pleased.

Need to get back to the cleaning, as once he gets in I am going to mums to sort her out, as she is still in a strop.

Fgs .. loving room .. way hay !

Now am in a quandry, Breakfast at Tiffany's is on .. shall I do the ironing (non essential) and watch it.. or tackle the kids rooms (desperate need)

G g g g Gah !
