    Well done Liz, you're doing great!

    My DH took the boys away for the long weekend last weekend so I got stuck into the house without all the distractions, it was awesome and I got everything done in 3 solid days of work . I just worked on one room at a time, I made sure I did each room properly before moving on to the next one. It isn't as overwhelming if you work on one area at a time.

    Keep it up, you'll love yourself for it soon!

    Good on you hon! You'll feel such a sense of achievement when its all done!

    I'm tackling our place too. I have a list and I give myself one task to do on the days when I'm not busy with other things. Today I did my pantry and I have to admit I've looked in it a billion times this afternoon because it looks so neat and tidy lol!

    Good luck with it!

    Thankyou everyone

    cherished1 - Today I haven't done anything, but that's because I went to visit a friend at hospital after she had a her bub on Wednesday. Plus, I worked last night and didn't feel up to doing anything this morning.
    I'm JUST finishing eating and will be going through a box and trolley tonight before going to bed.

    Queen, thanks, I'll definitely have to look into it!

    Well done hun!! Very organised indeed.
    I look forward to seeing your progress. I dont have any energy lately either, I have 2 full clothes baskets plus another load on the line of clean clothes to fold & pack away, a sink full of dirty dishes & a messy house in general atm. Oh & I've been meaning to clean my car for AGES too!!
    Good luck, hopefully when I see how much you're getting done then I'll jump on board & get stuck into mine too

    Thankyou ladies for the support It's just what I needed.

    This morning, I had a horrible, horrible headache so I didn't do anything - We spent the day with friends so I didn't do anything. I have work tomorrow, but I will be definitely going through a couple of crates

    Marydean, thankyou That's just given me the motivation to do todays work I have had barely any sleep because I finished work at 230am but didn't get home til 330am, and sleep till 4am and awake to DS at 720am - have had a small 1 hour nap, but was still feeling tired. My motivation has just hit

    Leesa, I'm going to take a few photos and post them in photobucket. I'm taking a photo of the bedroom 'before' and posting it in photobucket (cause I'm sure DH won't appreciate the whole world seeing unless I give them the link!) in about half an hour, because it's back to how it was before I did whatever on Wednesday - I will be sharing those photos here only

    Update

    Well, I haven't done anything here since Wednesday, but that's because Thursday I worked, Friday I had no energy and was feeling VERY sick so I didn't do anything, Saturday was our family day out and Sunday I worked.
    So, after reading my updates (and order my lunch ), I'm off to do some more cleaning. I will come back and post what I did and post the links to the photos too
