I need - it or similar (and some "moral" support here on MN( to get me through it)

Or stay on computer and do it all tomorrow? That's what I'd do.

FAQ - away off to your bed. It is too late to be cleaning.

harsh but fair, cod.

  1. locate black bags
  2. chuck it ALL out.
  3. Hoover.

Done in three easy steps.

I cannot imagine why it would be so important. Just go to bed. Or stay here. But leave cleaning for tomorrow.

FAQ · 19/06/2008 23:24

actually Cod my house is a mess because I've hardly had a chance to sit down for the last 7 days, yes I've posted a fair bit (but nothing like my usual amount) but most of that has been as I'm passing the computer.

Not to mention being the process of redecorating........

crisis cleaning

I am here but for a mo while I am writing a complaint to my Dss school - anyone want to comment?

??

SmugColditz · 19/06/2008 23:27

FAQ stop expaining yourself, it doesn't matter why the house is a mess, only that you are not powerless against it.

Put a time limit on each activity. Picking up rubbish = no more than 20 minutes.

FAQ · 19/06/2008 23:29

oooo NSF - you're a star that's what I was thinking of
