Day 8, 9 and Oh what a weekend!

Week 2 and I'm already falling behind!! Gahhhhhh

Yesterday, as I don't have any of the rooms on the task, I decided to tackle Mr Magoo's room instead! Weeeeeeeell, that never happened!!! 

Miss Tilly had Dance in the morning, then I was bragging and showing off my nice clean rooms to my friend that came to visit, Mr Magoo was sleeping in it, then I had to take Miss Tilly to M+CHN (who wasn't there), do the school pick up seeing as I was in town anyway, then get Miss Tilly ready and back into town for a little Dance concert at a church hall....... It just wasn't going to happen!!! I felt like I had failed, so cheered myself up by doing my nails lol

Today, I decided to attempt it again! Seeing as the only main task was to de-clutter a junk drawer.  Weeeeeeeell............

Mr Magoo had a longer than usual nap, Miss Tilly nearly fell through a window and then Footy Training pick up! While Magoo was asleep, i did do the organising task, and got my Calendar/planner done.  I also spent some more time on the organising task for yesterday, which was to set up a Family Responsibility System. It's not completely finished, but I will share with you the drafts. :)

So my junk drawer.... It's supposed to be for kitchen wrapping stuff, like glad wrap and Zip Lock Bags etc, but it ended up with a whole lotta junk! Here is my before photo: 

So cannot see the kitchen stuff in it!

I took EVERYTHING out, wiped it out, then only put back in what needs to be in there! It looks so much better! Mr Mister said "Whoa! Now its a kitchen drawer again!" Here is my after photo:

After - Nice and neat!

All nice and neat again! Lets try and keep it this way ........

Also on today's tasks, was to organise a calendar or diary! I have my planner already, however it is still new and there were dates that Kat had suggested putting in that I hadn't added yet... So I went and did all that this afternoon.... I will be doing a full post on this when its finished, but here is a sneak peek:

This was before I filled it out.

I love it!! And I may have spent longer than needed playing with it....... and looking at it, and filling it out....

Here is a sneak peek at the Family Responsibility thingy:

The Kids' Special Jobs

Lets hope they stick to them, and that I can keep them motivated ! I have a tendency to just do it for them if they give up on it, instead of urge them to do it! I get into that frame of mind, that its easier to do that, than argue with them lol. I am going to make them up on the computer, all pretty, and interactive, so hopefully that will give them more incentive to use it and actually DO their special jobs.

So onto tomorrow! Tomorrow  { day 10 }we're cleaning the oven *groan*, de-clutter kitchen cupboards and do organise the Tupperware cupboard..... { printable }

OK - with everything else I have to do  tomorrow for my birthday party - the cupboards probably wont get done..... However I will clean the oven! 

I'm still feeling extremely deflated for not getting Magoo's room done this week like I wanted... and I am feeling a little overwhelmed at all I have to try and get done tomorrow. We have sports day, I need to pick up the cake, do the food shopping, and a few other bits and pieces that come with organising a party!! I wont be able to get Miss Tilly to Daycare either, so that means I will have 2 extra kids out in the miserable cold weather while I measure how far the kids can throw the discuss LOL { if I don't laugh I will cry hahaha }Oh and YAY!!! 2 weeks down..... we're half way through!!! 

So wish me Luck tomorrow! I hope you all have a great day! Enjoy your clean ovens!

Talk to you tomorrow night.
