Housework

Help me!!

I have a day off work and really need to sort out the house - its a mess!!

I cant get going - what shall I do?

What makes you get off your ars* and get going?

[libby1980]

switch off your computer and put some music on. asking a question on here is a complete delaying tactic!!! i do the same....

[Champagne]

Have a cuppa tea and write a list of jobs in order of priority. As soon as you finish your tea you have to get working. Then crank up the music as libby suggests! Whistle while you work! :o)

[cascarelli]

Oh, sort it out this afternoon. Put your feet up, sit in the sun


Sorry, probably not much help?

If the internet is distracting you (!) switch off the modem and set the pc to do a full virus scan. This should hammer the performance sufficiently to deter you from surfing.

Actually I may combine all the ideas - make tea and then cut the grass. Then I get:-

A tan
Exercise
Achievement
And lots of extra brownie points from Mr Sally!!

Thanks all x

Turn the music up and once its all done you can then relax sit back and spend some time online.

De-cutter your house and it will de-clutter your self.

Your feel so much better once its done.

OK am off now - see you later all clean and tidy.

I have chosen best of the 80's CD!!

I usually invite someone over for a drink that night, that way I need the house to be tidy for my visitors!

www.flylady.net and follow the link for crisis cleaning. then implement all the routines and heed her advice.

It took me 5 years of being on the mailing list before I actually stood up and did it that I lamented for not doing so earlier.

If you take your 'baby steps' and gradually implement these routines, next time you have a day off, you can plan something lovely instead of having to house work.

good luck.
