Just taking a quick break from cleaning the bedroom. Yes, i know, was gonna do it yesterday. Good excuse though. i'm still not 100% well from the tummy bug. i'm having one day yick and one day ok. Yesterday was yick day, so today is clean the bloody room day.
Which means i did find my walking DVD again, so now there is no excuse - yay (oh).
Have been trying some of my clothes on again. With the help of my friendly little tummy big, the GDs and not feeling particularly hungry i am now pretty much back to where i was before christmas. One more week and i will be back where i started. Recovering lost ground in 2 months is absolutely excellent for me. i'm very excited and have now set the new goal of size 16 (14 to my US friends). This will be an exciting goal to reach. i have not been a 16 since i was about 27. This will be the slap i need to wake me up - hello! yes this is real. you are losing weight.
Now, what will be the special reward i set for obtaining that goal? hm, this could be interesting.
OK off to get yoghurt for afternoon snack and then back to work.

Today i have designated clean up the bedroom day. We both have a habit of putting things down and leaving them there. We start little stacks everywhere and just move items from one stack to another, until a big mess is what we have.
So today, the big mess formally known as our bedroom is getting the treatment. Yesterday it was the lounge and kitchen, putting away the cases and things we had taken on the weekend with us. i know, slack arent' i?
The bedroom is mostly my domain. i used to have an office when i was running my business, but now there is no business, the office has been given back to Master to use as His den. Two rooms in the house i don't touch, His den (we affectionaately call it the office) and the dungeon. They are His private spaces, places where He can do as He likes. i do use the office while He's at work. He has a kick arse computer, which i've named Big Mumma. mine is very slow to do everything, even with ADSL2. He doesn't mind me using it because He knows i don't go snooping. As long as i hand it back as soon as He's ready to take over, which i always do.
Next week my BA studies start, so my time will not be my own. That's why i'm trying to get the house in thorough order this week. All i will have to do after that is just keep on top of things. i've discovered i don't actually mind housework. i used to hate it because it never ends. you do something today and tomorrow it needs doing again. Actually, i've realised if you have everything done and just need to do maintenance cleaning, its not long, hard or boring. Its letting it get to a state of utter chaos that's the problem.
Currently, our wardrobe is the bed in the spare room. Washing gets dumped there and we pick new clothes to wear from it. i will be tackling that tomorrow. So by Sunday the house will be in proper order. Let one thing go and everything just piles up. i've decided the best thing to do, is each day i will start by doing the quick clean, take about 30 minutes to do the essentials (toilet, bathroom, make bed etc) and then each day will give a more thorough go over of one room. Then i will be free for the rest of the day to spend on study and whatnot. Now i just have to stick to the plan lol.
