Re: The magic of tidying

..with you in spirit @Oaktree  no energy here today. I maxed out finding a load of washing so as not to stink in dentists chair tomorrow lol...

Re: The magic of tidying

I am suffering from cbf too @TAB but I have to get the house ready for the weekend. I have the kids and their partners coming over for dinner on Sunday. We are having chicken tacos.

I have spent too long doing absolutely nothing.

Re: The magic of tidying

yeah true re doing nothing. i cant write off as much time as I have using heat as excuse. @Oaktree 

Re: The magic of tidying

You did a good job @Oaktree . If I wash the walls of my bathroom or toilet I'll have to try to do the skylight shafts - not easy.

Washing is an achievement too @TAB . I did a load too and a massive wash-up. And I have to mop up after the cat most days, poor old boy has a few problems.

 

Re: The magic of tidying

Yeah kitchen floor past due for hot damp mop and rinse here. Not today but soon @Dimity  dentist today. Thats enough.

Re: The magic of tidying

Wow, so impressed you cleaned the walls of the toilet, @Oaktree ! Well done! 

 

Hope your dinner with the kids and their families on Sunday goes really well 🙂

Re: The magic of tidying

I need to get motivated again.

I found the Fab Five helpful...

  • Five focussed minutes
  • Floor
  • Flat surfaces 
  • Force it to fit (in 1 of 3 categories: trash, has a home, doesn't have a home)
  • Finish

@Dimity 

 

I need to get motivated quickly, I have a cleaner coming on Monday afternoon and I need to find flat surfaces for her to clean.

Thanks for the list of 5 things.

 

 

Re: The magic of tidying

@Oaktree The 5 minute thing worked for me last night, it helped me tackle the bedroom.  Tackle the floor first, it looks better and gives space to vacuum.

I got out the ironing board a couple of days ago, I have a pile of ironing waiting to be done. Maybe tomorrow!

Re: The magic of tidying

Good job for last night @Dimity 

Good luck for the ironing tomorrow. I believe in you. Don’t procrastinate just do it!
