PMSL! Nah, I just accomplished something really cool that I wanted to share with you all.
I decided that I want to really try and keep on top of my housework, it’s important more than ever now because the babies are getting more and more mobile everyday.
Well tonight I decided it would be the night to start. You see, I have always found I work better at night. Not only because I have no children to worry about since they are all in bed, but also because it is really lovely waking up to a nice clean house. So that’s my motivation, I picture how good I will feel waking up in the morning, it gets me through scrubbing those horrible pots and pans! Yuck!
However I had a bit of trouble getting into it all tonight. Israel was out at a work function and then Jeep club tonight so things were a bit busy until 7:30. At 7:30 I decided to sit down in front of the puter and finally eat my dinner. I was thinking I would just cruise around on the net for about 30 mins and then gets into some serious work. Well as all my net buddies know, 30 mins easily turns into an hour. The thing that finally got me off the puter at 8:30 was Gemma waking up. I tried resettling her for ages but she just wouldn’t have a bar of it. I tried some pain relief as I know she is teething at the moment but that didn’t seem to help either. Finally I offered her a bottle and that did the trick. So really I didn’t get into the housework until almost 9pm! And for the last 50 odd minutes, I have been going like I am on speed or something!
I have cleaned the kitchen and put a new load of dishes in the dishwasher, washed bottles, washed all the benchtops, swept and mopped the kitchen and dining floors, cleaned the toilet and potty, mopped bathroom, tidied the laundry (it was chaotic in there!), and done a major clean up of general crap all over the floors in the main end of the house. I can’t wait til Israel gets home and sees what I have done, and all in under an hour!
I am hoping to do more washing and vacuum tomorrow and also sort out the twins room.
Since I am having a bit of a show off moment, why don’t I show off my latest LO. It’s a really dodgy scan and it’s come out way brighter than in real life but you get the idea. I think if I end up submitting it I will re-scan it.
