yorkiegal73 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Might not seem like a major acheivement but today i put some washing on AND hung it out, cleared the sink of pots and scrubbed the surfaces. That's more than i've done in the last 3 months. Am having a break now then back to work and emptying the fridge. Think i'm a long long way from being a Stepford wife though!

yorkiegal73 Posted July 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 i found a website www.flylady.net it's extremely ott but has some good tips on how to start cleaning up if you've really let things build up. they have a thing where you rush round the house with a bin bag and fill it with 27 things and then stop. it really works.

Fairy Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 I don't believe it, you really are like a Stepford wife Pass on those top cleaning tips Seriously though, it's brilliant, I hope you feel really proud of yourself. It does become a nightmare when things are left too long and takes so much motivation to get back on track.Fairy xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkiegal73 Posted July 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 umm no thanks. i still have weeks of cleaning ahead before it's straight and a few midnight trips to the big biffa bin which really belongs to the flats over the road. I've found tons of loose change and a 7yr old phone bill. My mood was spoilt slightly by a phone call from someone i think was a debt collector (bloody credit card!) but I put on a funny accent and said wrong number lol. Will deal with that later in the week. I've bought a new begonia for my sparkly kitchen too as a reward. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
