Sing it with me now! I fought the lawn and the lawn won...

That made me think of this:


So my big accomplishment was switching my cell service provider from U.S. Cellular to Alltel. Time will tell if I have chosen wisely (I have to wait for my phone to arrive in the mail though, and I'm really impatient. They said it probably would arrive Thursday. THURSDAY?!?! That's, like, days from now!! And honestly, I'm not sure my current cell phone will hold out until the new one arrives... I'm treating it gently in the meantime).

Well, our dishes are still kept up....will only take minutes to do the few in the sink. The LR is still picked up and decent...and tada! the toilet, countertop and floor in the bathroom are shining didn't do the tub/shower walls yet.
I do NOT want to discuss laundry! ;(

I want to get to Monday and feel like I have done some constructive cleaning and sorting in this house!!

This morning i have to visit my Nephew for his birthday, when I return there will be no stopping me!!

I will use this thread to keep me motivated, even if I'm the only one posting!

Gosh Nands just think of the cleaning and bits we will get done

I have done little in the house, however I went shopping and bought some fresh local free range eggs and tomato plants for the children to grow.

We had fresh poached egg and black pudding served on top of asparagus for lunch, so simple but so lovely.

I have a sausage, bean and pasta casserole cooking in the slow cooker and now off to walk the dogs shortly.

Other than the dog walking I have had little excersise this week so intend to spend 20min in the wii today at some point. (lost 3lb )

I know this is the cleaning thread but my body and soul need cleansed as much as the house

......... ok I will hoover aswell.....sigh

I will be back in between otherwise I will get side tracked. First things first and all that... The dogs!

OK....I cheated......

Mom cleaned my house before she left today, and made phone calls to get my lawn mowed and my dryer repaired.


I know it's a bad thing cause then she gets in my stuff...like how i should organize, what my priorities should be, how i need to change...the whole deal.

But I haven't yet gotten the balls to put a stop to it..probably because it is so to my benifit that she clean it, that i don't wanna give that up even if thats what i have to do to be independant.

Well...ok...so i still have plenty to do this weekend...i know i have to change this pattern, but for this weekend what i need to do is precede on in a proper way towards ...... well whatever it is I'm walking towards...a little brained fried at the moment...

You know I don't think there is anything wrong with your mum helping you out Nands. My mum used to help me out no end. She did my iorning for me it was great. I didn't see it as being less independant, I saw it as being very lucky to have a mum that wanted to help

I got most of what I wanted to do done yesterday. Today I will clean the whole of down stairs and start stripping the wall paper in the dining room!

Thats the plan but the kids are going to their dads so who knows where the day will take me
