Hi BWBB, I hope you get a lot done today.
I started working on the things on my list that I really needed to do today even if they didn't come up, but then never came back to the actual list. I got my bag ready for visiting my sister tomorrow, I cleaned up the area around the book case, and I balanced my checkbook, paid bills and did some other paperwork. I have to go out to paid work now, tonight I'll probably only have time for a load of laundry and cleaning everything up.

The kids helped me out yesterday and got the porch done, tidied up the laundry room some, and swept, and got the dishes done before supper (yet the counters are overflowing again somehow) I'm having issues with the dog pooping in the laundry room and basement, since she had her puppies, which she has already started weaning, so I'm locking her up at night, the oldest son let her out this morning, and when she came in she pooped in the laundry room again. Gahh, I've been spraying a bleach solution on the floor, but it doesn't seem to be helping. It's wood, no smooth flooring, so its leaving marks too. 1. Dishes 2. Laundry 3. Living room 4.

Hubby changed the water filters last night, and one broke, so has been leaking, we have a bucket to catch it, until he can get a new one to replace it later today, but there is lots of water in the basement from the bucket overflowing last night, so there is cleanup I should do there, but don't want to as it's concrete, and won't be damaged by the water, there is stuff that needs to be moved though. Also out of puppy paper again, but this time I at least have my van to take to town. 1. Dishes 2. Laundry 3. Living room 4. Dining room 5. Cat Box 6.20 minutes SD 7. Bathroom 8.

I finished up a couple of things last week which should clear my schedule somewhat...but not as much as I'd hoped.
Here is my list. It contains some daily things, some things left over from last week, and some dreaded financial stuff...which will force me to sort through loads of papers. Drat. I hate that.
1. Dishes. Not too many. 2. Laundry step (sort/wash/dry/hang/put away). 3. Sort papers/start financial tasks. 4. Sweep/mop kitchen floor. (will take a couple of 15 minute sessions). 5. Wipe down stove/clean microwave. 6. Take a 1 mile walk. 7. Laundry step. 8. Sort papers/financial tasks. 9. -DONE- Sack up old newspapers and magazines. 10. Lift weights. 11. Sort papers/financial tasks. 12. -DONE- Laundry step. 13. Outdoor task (trimming along fences or picking up branches). 14. Replace power strip in bedroom. 15. Shake rugs. 16. Clean one birdcage. 17. Sort papers/financial tasks. 18. Laundry step. 19. Clear kitchen table. 20. Clear kitchen counters. 21. Sweep/mop kitchen floor. 22. Sort papers/financial task. 23. -DONE- Clean one birdcage. 24. Work on living room hotspot. 25. Sort papers/financial tasks.
I have a bad attitude about this list, but maybe I will feel better about it after I get going.
Roll # 1 - 9 - 9 - Sack up old newspapers and magazines. There are still more but I started. Roll # 2 - 3 - 12 - Laundry step. Started load of street clothes. Roll # 3 - 11 - 23 - Clean one bird cage. Canary cage is cleaned. Roll # 4 - 5 - 3 - Sort papers. YUK!

Hello, boyswillbeboys. You have been working hard everyday...it is an inspiration to me. My weeks get so disjointed. I have trouble maintaining any kind of regular schedule. But I am back at it today. My goal is 10-15 minutes per item, using the list I posted above a few days ago..
Roll # 2 - 3 - 12 - Laundry step. Threw a load of street clothes in the washer. Put away load from a few days ago. Roll # 3 - 11 - 23 - Clean one bird cage. Canary cage is clean. Roll # 4 - 5 - 3 - Sort papers.

goldfinch, it can be tough to remember your goals, and keep at it. I get rather ADD with my cleaning,that's where the list really helps
