In same position but only have until 12.15 when I'll have to go and collect DCs

Have done all the beds so far and hung up 1st load of laundry. 2nd lot just finished

Need to:

Do bathroom
hoover bedrooms

Lounge could do with a hoover and dust but DCs will be back soon to wreck it again so don't think I'll bother

Am going to have 10min bursts of computer between jobs

Me. But I don't have the energy. OK. My plan is to:

Clean kitchen
Do ironing & put away
Change bedlinen
Hoover downstairs

All by 2.30

I have also come up with a new rule. Any money I find lying around the house whilst I tidy is mine. I am 22p richer now

Have done the bed and put washing on.

My flat is a lost cause!

I need to tidy the DC's bedroom
I have washing coming out of my ear so need to get the wet stuff dry some how!
Kitchen needs a good clean as does the living room.
I might give one of the walls in the kids room a lick of paint but thats as much aas imm going to do today.

No point in setting impossible goals imo
