I feel personally attacked by this thread popping up and interrupting my procrastination Grin

Ok, so by 1:30 I have to
Hoover the whole house
Quick going over in the bathrooms
Tidy the kids playroom (that it totally unrealistic, it's a bombsite)

Let's do it! It's a bank holiday here this weekend and I want to start it with a relatively clean house!

I'm here! I've done well so far.
Hoovered sitting room and kitchen diner.
Washed kitchen and utility room floor
Hung a load of washing on the line.
Dusted and polished sitting room ( this is ground breaking for me)
Emptied dishwasher
Washed dog and cat bowls and the bird feeders from garden.
Paid a load of online bills including the tax bill ( which was huge and makes me cross)

Contemplating the ironing pile, doing a bit of gardening and sorting the freezer.

Keep going!

We have new furniture arriving on Monday so I need to:

  • Move dining chairs out of living room
  • Clear the floor of paperwork dumped under old table that has gone to tip
  • Clear off coffee and side tables
  • Sweep and mop living room floor
  • Move table in office
  • Move computer equipment somewhere (might mean spending some time making space on old table which is covered in paperwork)
  • Move current desk and chair upstairs into DC room
  • Hide craft “stuff” under moved table for later sorting
  • Sweep and mop office floor
i have all day to do it but this is part of the problem. I am also on annual leave and will spend periods being resentful that I’m doing this rather than doing something fun thus lowering productivity 😆

I'm in. Even if it's just for 10 mins an hour whilst I'm in a stupidly quiet period at work (wfh).

Before midday I will - clear the draining board and wipe the tops over, and put on a load of washing. I'll also make my bed...

Me!

I need to put away the clean washing mountain & do some of the actual washing

I don’t understand how the cleaners came yesterday & my house is already in chaos 🙈

SlothDay · 29/07/2022 10:58

Folded a load of washing
