I didn't get around to reformatting the computer yet -I guess I'm just afraid to be without it that long. But I did back up everything I need so if it goes kaput then I'll be okay.
Anyway... I need to vent. I suck. My house is a wreck. I work on it every day but not enough apparently. Laundry alone for 6 people is overwhelming. Not to mention the fact that we use cloth diapers - for TWINS - so that adds on at least 3 more loads per week. When the baby gets here, I'll be doing diapers EVERY day. But - the problem is that I hate laundry. I DETEST laundry. I'd rather be out PUSH mowing the yard than to do laundry - even though I am 27 weeks pregnant and it is raining. Then comes dishes. I hate doing them too. Granted, at least I keep up with the dishes the best I can. But the laundry I try to hide from.
I have mastered the kids toys mostly by making a toy closet. This works because the *IF* the kids have done their chores, then they can pick out a box from the toy closet. After they have picked those toys up, they can swap it out for another box. I still have to pick up from the twins, but at least they like to help mommy put the stuff back in the box.
Anyway, I just really need to get back into the swing of things with Flylady. And, to keep my butt moving, I'm gonna post what I get done each day. Granted - right now I could afford to do 10 loads of laundry a day for a week. But - I'm gonna take baby steps and get it done. I also haven't finished unpacking our office/home school area. Even though we don't homeschool yet, I already have a stash of stuff that I use with the kids occasionally. So that is my "dungeon" that I need to work on. Some of the other rooms still have some boxes that need unpacking so I will try to work on that as well. And Decluttering is a BIG thing that I need to do all the time.
So, if you feel so inclined... leave some comments for me while I try to tackle my house. If you think I could do better, leave me a messgage to get my butt in gear. If you think I'm doing pretty good, then let me know!! Or if you just think I'm crazy to think you would care about how I clean my house - you can tell me that too.... hehehehehe
