I tried writing down one big job to do each day - washing/ironing/clean bathrooms/hoover whole house etc. - which was fine if the weather stayed nice and I could dry the washing - if not, it went wrong! Gave up and got a cleaner and do washing as and when!
Pile of ironing waiting now and more washing in the machine - house will look like a chinese laundry again upstairs with it hanging all over the place to dry.
Of course I could get off PC too :laughing:

I do washing through the day - it's the only household job I do apart from cleaning up after the children.
The children help me do it and they get a lot of pleasure from finding socks and deciding which trousers belong to whom :laughing:
I do a little every day so that it never builds up too badly... and I make sure my children do their bit too! :D

My DD has taken over her ironing now - suddenly realised she is 16 and I had been doing mine for a year or 2 by that age! she just said 'OK'! and I don't put it in their rooms - just leave a pile of clean stuff outside their doors - move it or else :laughing:
Mindees love helping hang it out in the good weather - matching socks and guessing whose t shirts are whose etc:thumbsup:
