Anyone in?
I’m home with a poorly dd today (and a not poorly preschooler). Temptation is to sit on the sofa drinking tea so need a bit of spurring on!

Going to start small:
Clear draining board and wipe over sink and drainer- done
Put on wool wash -done
Wipe over bathroom loos and sinks-done
Take 3 loads of washing off airers, fold and put away
Put away load of washing that got moved to chair last night
Hang up wool wash
Sort another load and put on
Dust hallway and stairs
Hoover stairs
Mop hallway
Flatten cardboard boxes and put in recycling

I'm in! I find putting washing away and crushing boxes for the recycling two of the most annoying jobs, so well done for getting those out of the way early on .

Been ill for a few weeks with a cold/allergies so have been letting things slip this year. Trying to do an average of 10 minutes a day decluttering and organising stuff that falls outside of the daily jobs that need doing. Done all my daily jobs for today, but not sure what I'll end up doing this afternoon. Weather permitting, I might repot some houseplants, failing that I'll find something that needs sorting in the spare room.

How did you get on yesterday? I did well on Wednesday but less so yesterday. Today so far I’ve
Put a load of washing on
Loos and sinks
Kitchen sink & drainer
Hoovered downstairs

Sun is shining through and showing off all the finger marks on the kitchen cupboards so I’ll give those a wipe.
When I moved the dining chairs to hoover under I noticed all the legs are grubby so they need a clean.
Living room needs dusting
Living room windows need a clean

I also have some paperwork to complete ahead of an appointment this afternoon so I’ll start with that

It sounds like you're making good progress . I keep telling myself little and often is better than feeling overwhelmed and doing nothing. Managed to get some repotting done yesterday in between the snow. I was at work today and will be again tomorrow, so looking to get back to it on Sunday. Either I'll do an hour in the garden if it's nice weather or will make a start on decluttering the spare room.

Please motivate me to do something! I need to:

Hang wet laundry out
Do more laundry
Food and put away dry laundry
Mop floors
Vacuum stairs and bedrooms
Put away a pile of holiday things
Vacuum downstairs and sofa
