This weekend goes down as the weekend that nothing in the house got done! You could choose to see that as failure but I don’t. Having a clean and organised house is lovely and important but this weekend, I spent time with my mum and my nephew. We had Oli on Saturday overnight. Babysitting Oli has been a little bit traumatic for him and us recently, he’s an only child and used to the attention of his parents and he doesn’t like change so he’s been very upset when Grandma and Aunty Nic come to the house and his parents leave, without him. This weekend he was delightful and it feels like major progress. This week I’m going to have to do a bit more housework when I get home from work but it’s a small price to pay for hearing Oli tell me that he and I are friends!
Kitchen
- General clean (sort out the recycling and rubbish, sweep floor) This gets done tonight in time for the Tuesday rubbish pick up!
Cooking
- Food prep for next week. This I did get done, come on, I’m always going to prioritize food and sleep!
Bathroom
- General clean (sweep floor, change towels, empty bin, clean bath, sink and toilet). Towels were changed but that and scrubbing the toilet is all I did. Bathroom will get a proper clean on Tuesday night.
Bedroom
- General clean (sweep floor, change bed). Nope nothing done, a task for this evening.
Living Room
- General clean (tidy sofa, put things away etc). Fortunately, I’ve hardly been in the living room so it’s pretty tidy and can go another week.
Hall
- Hoover – Not done, needs doing, not likely to get done until next week – I hate hoovering!

This update it such a good way to stay on top of housework! I love your gallery wall in your kitchen!
Thanks, my thinking was that photos of the people I love would make washing up less of a chore!
Oh and is the moving going?
