February tasks
I must confess that I have been so out of sorts that I have not even looked at what I had set myself this month.
I think what I will do is just not bother with the monthly tasks as it is not working well at the moment.

Thge bug has bitten
Strangely though I did not do much during the day.
Things started to happen once I got home with the younglings.
I cleaned the bathroom. Then when I was doing the dinner I washed the dishes. I then decided to carry on cleaning after dinner. I cleaned the cooker and I cleared the floor in the kitchen.
Then after the wee ones went to bed I did some work in the bedroom when I was looking for the younglings costumes for tomorrows world book day.
After I had done this my friend called and I cleaned the hall and did more work in the bedroom while I chatted to her.
I feel shattered now, but I am so glad with what I have managed to do.

Not the greatest start
I have not been following the weekly scedule well so far. I have been letting myself get distracted.
Though I did clean out the fridge and I have also been doing something that my friend does. I have been making sure that I have washed all of the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen before I relax at night. I find that it is much better that way. I can relax properly without thinking that I need to get the job done before I go to bed.
that is one thing that I really need to make sure that I keep doing.

Progress and change
I have been doing really well this week. I have done all of the jobs one the day that I was supposed to. Though on Thusday I did not do as much as I would have liked to and the place is still not looking as tidy as I would like.
this has made me realize that I need to make sure that there is one day out of the wee that I take off. It will either be Monday or Friday. I am thinking that Friday would be the best day to rest when I am most tired and give me something to aim for.
I will just make sure that on eht day when I clean the wee ones room I will also clean the bathroom and hall at the same time.

Very happy with myself
I have decided that I am going to make sure that there are either no dishes, or if there are it is beecause they have been created when I am about to go to bed.
I was really tired tonight and I nearly left the dishes until tomorrow. But I decided that I would make the effort and get them done. As there was not that many, it did not take me long. I am so proud of myself as if I'd have left them until tomorrow there would have just been more for me to do. Now when I do the dishes tomorrow I will not have many and it is nice to go to bed with the kitchen looking clean.
I really need to make sure that I keep that up.

My mission for tonight that all of the dishes are washed. The food preperation sides and cooker are cleaned.
I am feeling happier as my home is becomming clean again (it is nice to take time off at Christmas, but I am fed up of the clutter and mess)

Cleanning bug
Is here and I hope it will stay.
I did some work in the kitchen today (though it is still a mess)
I decided that as my partner was not taking the wee ones to his mums that I would work on the bedroom instead. I needed to clean up one section so I could take a photograph.
I then carried on and by the end of the day the bedroom is looking really funky. It is a shame that I will not get to sleep in it tonight as my step daughter is staying, however I will make sure that it stays tidy so that tomorrow night I can take advantage of it looking really good. I really need to make sure that it stays like that as it looks so much nicer.

Gutting the living room
I did not get the chance to really clean out the living room last night, so I have managed to get it done tonight. It took me over three hours to get it clean but it looks so much better.

Decorations down
The Christmas decorations are now down. The place looks bare and messy.
The wee ones were great and helped me put them away. I just have got the task of cleaning up before I go to bed.
I really need to get the flat sorted out and while it will be easier once the wee ones go back to school, I really need to get something done now.
