De-cluttering

Its not often i get to feel relatively ahead of the game but things aren’t too bad right now. Granted almost every single item of clothing we possess is still heaped on my floor, but its clean :~) and downstairs is in danger of being tidy. Obviously children who disappear for entire days at a time has helped and i have manged to declutter every single hotspot downstairs that exists. Even the craft supplies cupboard is now in stacking crates, arranged in appropriate “project type collections” and i have thrown out the tat. I can’t see a heap of anything anywhere. *Grins* I did have to have a fake tantrum at the kids finally today but once i had, they got their room sorted in a few minutes.

Fran and i kept it very much to the minimum today, when she eventually came and asked for some one to one time – a few sums, a wordsearch, a Bob book – about 25 minutes of nothing very much – but you can’t beat them playing together happily really, so i don’t try to interfer at all. For most of the day today i apparently had two children called Hannah and Bethany… lol.. you go to all the effort to find names, and they change them!

Ammi’s talking is still coming on in leaps and bounds – my fave at the moment is “Treggy” for Shrek!!!!
