I am taking a break to finish some homework while waiting on some clothes to finish so I can put them in the dryer and start a new load. My hubby is still in bed! I have done this so far this morning: Made breakfast for me and the kids Laundry 1 load in progress, 2 loads sorted and waiting Picked up bathroom (still need to scrub and clean) Picked up 1/2 the living room and swept (filled 1 30 gallon) garbage bag Not bad if I do say so! I am going to finish this history essay question and hopefully the wash will be ready to move over to the dryer and I can work some more on the living room. I'll be checking in with my progress.

You are ahead of me, today, Jenn. I have a load in the washer, and sorted the other clothes-probably 4 more loads not including my bedding/sheets.
I ate a twix bar for breakfast (maybe that is why I feel sluggish?) I took pictures of my mess so I can see the progress, hoping to get the place clean so we can relax tomorrow for superbowl. Also must do most of the laundry as dh is going out of town for work for 2 weeks, leaving Monday. I'm going for an overnight Monday night to Tuesday, then out of town next weekend.
Impressive that you filled a 30 gallon trash bag...what a difference you are making! You inspire me to get moving!

Did two 30 minute challenges with family in the living room. Scrubbed toilet, tub, sink in bathroom. Filled, ran, unloaded dishwasher. Put away the pans that I scrubbed (I often leave them sitting out until I use them again.)
Cooked bacon and eggs for lunch. One pan still dirty.
Washed 3 more loads of clothes, drying, folding and putting away as I go. Had kids fold their own clothes out of two loads of clean/dry clothes that have been sitting for a while.
Couch was funky smelling, so had oldest dd oxyclean the cushions. The cushion covers are running through the washer. Needs to all be dry by tomorrow!
Changed dentist appts for teen daughter so they won't interfere with basketball. Did Bible study for class in the morning...story about a miraculous healing by Jesus...fun!
Need to do another 30 minute challenge in the kitchen with the family. Need to vacuum living room/hall. Keep moving on laundry and reassemble couch.

I just read the other thread about your upcoming surgery! Wonderful that you were able to stay focused today and to get so much done. I don't know if you have any available money, but one idea is to drop your laundry off at the laundromat and pay for them to wash it. Some of the laundromats here offer the drop-off service. Does it ever feel great to drop off baskets of dirty laundry in the morning on the way to work, and pick it up all clean and folded at the end of the day! I've only done this a few times, but just knowing that it is a possibility is helpful to me. And now, since you are under a timeline, this is a great time to take advantage.
