    Yay Liv!! You'll have to put some pics on FB, would love to see their new room once done
    For the drains I don't like using Draino or anything, so I use 1/2 Baking Soda & 1/2 cup Vinegar. You just pour it in there, leave it for a few mins then flush with boiling water.
    It fizzes up a fair bit, so be prepared Also, they recommend not to use it though if you have used a "commercial" drain cleaner in the past few weeks.

    After coming home from a 12 hour night shift, I have;

    Washed dishes
    Tidied up kitchen and dining room and wiped down table and benches
    Tidied up lounge room
    Vacuumed entire house
    Washed floors
    Folded and put away two loads of washing.

    I am now completely and utterly stuffed and I still need to put away the Christmas tree. Think I might b going to bed instead.

    WOW LC!! What an effort after working all night! I hope you're tucked up in bed now after all that!

    I'm pretty motivated today, have stripped my bed & tidied my room. Am halfway through sorting out DD's bedroom, culling toys, rearranging etc. I have also just listed some unwanted things for sale too. So hopefully they sell fast! Off to finish DD's room now, then hang out some washing & put another couple of loads on. Then will see what else the arvo brings

    How are you going Tan & Liv?

    Cat- What an effort by you yesterday

    I haven't done a single thing so far today because the kids were being so good I decided to reward them by spending the morning at the park instead. Hopefully this afternoon I'll be able to get some things done.
