Back to normal

So it's been awhile since I posted anything on here so i thought it was time that I got back into it. Christmas is past and so are the school holidays. Everything is getting back to normal. On the kids first day back at school I spent the whole day cleaning the house after it had been total chaos for weeks! It is so nice to be a routine again. As much as I don't like getting up early in the morning it is nice for the kids to go to school and learn and for me to have the time to do everything that needs to be done around the house and have a little bit of time to myself.

Housework is something that I constantly battle with. I hate doing it but I love to have a clean house. I can't win! I do need to come up with a better plan of attack though. I do try hard to do the dishes every night and tidy the lounge room and dinning room. I feel so much better getting up to a house that is clean and ready to start the day. Sometimes though by the end of the day I just want to put the kids in bed and sit in front of the tv for the rest of the night.

I must admit though that laundry is my nemisses. I really hate laundry. No matter how hard I try to keep up with it I just can't do it. I hate sorting it, washing it, hanging is out, bringing it in and folding it and putting it away. basically I hate the whole lot. If I could hire someone just to do all the washing I would!

Hopefully now I will also get some free time to do some craft projects. I have a few things that I'm working on at the moment, mostly for a baby shower that I am planning for a friend. I helps me to have a deadline. Things get done a lot quicker that way. Can't wait to show you.
And just because I don't want to blog without a picture. Here is one with Caitlyn, her cousin Zoe and her friend Monika feeding the ducks!
