Tidying Motivation Needed 🙈

I need to:
Put the clean washing away
Hang up the laundry in the washing machine to dry
Put the clean washing up away
Wash up
Sweep the kitchen floor
Tidy up the toys in the living room
Put the garden toys back in the shed
Tidy the table
Throw away any rubbish along the way

My toddler is still awake and probably will be for another couple of hours so I need to work around him or it’ll all still be there when he goes to sleep 🙈😴

Aw I feel your pain I have this daily too and struggle most days. All I'd say is, put some music on if you can around toddler, leave them to play or watch tv then tell yourself you've got one hour, do what you can in that hour then sit yourself down again, chances are you'll either be all done or you'll want to finish the last few bits by the time the hours up, either way you feel much better once you've done some of the jobs as hard as it is to get moving-trust me I am the worst for it but I always feel better once I've done a few jobs ☺️

Invite someone round? Sometimes it's the only reason I tidy up! 😂
