We are having an inspection done next Monday so I guess we have been here 3 months. We are not unpacked and most of the place is a shambles. G is not worried and is in bed with an infected leg at present so is no good for anything anyway.
I am freaking out and majorly overwhelmed - there is just so much to do even in the rooms that are not too bad let alone the rooms that are wall to wall, floor to ceiling junk.
I have made a list of things to do today and even that is too big......I just don't know where to start. There is so much stuff around that everything involves moving stuff to get at other stuff.
I'll start by hanging out the washing, folding and putting away the clean washing and doing a quick tidy of the sitting room.
Here I go!!!!

Well I'm back and I have got quite a lot done - not everything on the list but enough so I don't feel like I have wasted the day.
I am always amazed how spending some time here making a list can help me focus and get things done, so thanks everyone!

Thank You CL-SS
I have had a busy day away from home today but I might get some things done this evening.
I did take a bunch of boxes to the recycling place this afternoon and I clean up a bit in the kitchen while I was making dinner.
I might even do some dusting.....

The inspection is this coming Monday.
G has not done anything - I am getting really Peed off with him but I know that if I get on his case about it he will refuse to do anything - sometimes I really wonder why I bother.....
Right now my biggest fear is that he will do nothing and the inspection will go okay. He really needs to be held responsible for his stuff and if he wants to have so much stuff then he needs to keep it tidy and clean. I do not think I am being unreasonable.
I did dusting - it is so much easier to dust when there isn't a hundred things sitting in every square foot of space.

I love to read happy ending to stories here so I thought I better post my one.
We had the inspection today and it couldn't have gone better.
G did do heaps of work. The shed and garage are still full to overflowing and I can't find anything but he did some work on the office room and his room and things were quite clean even if they were full of stuff. The rest of the those looks really good and clean.
The property manager is evening going to look into replacing our shower and sink bench.

I have a gap between school and work and I have just completed working on my essay for 30 minutes. That was my goal for today - I am fighting terrible procrastination. I was sudden struck by the thought that if I spent a few minutes tidying up then my home will stay cleaner and tidier longer......this may seem like common sense to some people but it's a big deal for me! So I am going to:  put dishes in dishwasher and turn it on if it is full feed the hens (and the cat) walk the dog (just a short walk cos it's very cold!) put on a load of washing Wish me luck! |

Way to go Razy !!! Congrats on passing your inspection AND getting G to help!!
If you want to, join us over in Working in Threes. It's helped me a great deal to make things stay cleaner longer. I'm maintaining living room, bathroom and dining room, because of 3's. I have a long way to go in other rooms, but it will happen eventually.
Take care and have a great day!

Hi MerryMaid
I usually don't go to WITS as I seem to live on the other side of the World form everyone there, they are working while I'm asleep and so on.
I am going to work in an hour so I am just going to much around and maybe do some reading.
Hope your day is going well
