please???

I have to get it tidied up before Saturday AM, I can't bear the thought of H's comments if he sees it in this state (and I don't like it being like it anyhow).

So I'm going to HAVE to get it sorted, will probably be slow going, the way I'm feeling 2 minute jobs are going to take me 12.....but its' got to be done - but could do with someone else helping me along..........

Ok. How much did you get done yesterday?

Oliveoil · 26/03/2008 15:29

my main tip would be

GET OFF THE COMPUTER!!!!!!!

FAQ · 26/03/2008 15:32

Saltire - virtually nothing - just couldn't cope with the thought of it.

OO - I know but that's eaiser said than done when you're feeling like I am ......although DS2 wanting to play on the Cbeebies website will help......

to make you feel better, I found a list of URGENT JOBS pinned to my kitchen wall

Sort Out Understairs Mess was alongside Write Christmas Cards

so that shows you how far behind we are in this house

I now just reach in and lob out whatever is annoying me, have done one wall so far

that way it will eventually be sorted

Oh God yes - this thread is an answer to my prayers. I feel really ashamed since I fell off the Flylady bandwagon and now with the kids on holiday I am just drowning...

So yes, I'll happily join you.

I'm going to deal with the dirty dishes NOW

FAQ · 26/03/2008 17:32

Right - my dishes from last night and this morning are done.

I've made a start on the table, and I've just done 15 minutes of letter writing/form filling/signing and put them in envelopes ready to post.

About to get DS3 from upstairs and have another short break before cooking dinner.....

Well that's good. I supervised the Dses and their friend playing Monopoly. Then I started the tea for them. SO will make an effort to wash dishes and tidy kitchen afterwards

Janni · 26/03/2008 17:48

Well done on the paperwork FAQ. That's something I tend to put off until Hell freezes over ..

I am going to sweep the kitchen floor.

Janni · 26/03/2008 19:30

Youngest child in bed, my eyes now strained from reading the most recent very heavy MN threads..

Will now tidy the living room.
How are you doing FAQ?

Janni · 26/03/2008 21:05

FAQ - I'm lonely here! Are you OK?

Going to tidy the kitchen surfaces now.

Janni · 26/03/2008 22:10

LOL - just read your other thread.
Well , my flat is tidier now, thanks to you!
