Hmm...bathroom is still on my list!
They are turning off the electricity in our building for part of the day so my list won't be as long as it should be, but I got a lot more done yesterday than I had anticipated.
-clean bathroom
-tidy Akeelah's room
-sweep hall floor
-do online banking

I got the bathrooms cleaned! Yay!
Today I need to:
- Tidy up enough for guests as 2 different sets of friends may or may not come by
- Figure out what's for dinner
- Deal with the errant, and late in getting back to me, investment company
- Laundry. Always.
- Work on the tree control, but not the image processing because that locked up so I booted it back to the guys who wrote it.
- Do all the bills
I'm having serious motivation problems with this pregnancy. Last time, second trimester I felt great and had huge amounts of motivation. Granted last time that was after a first trimester of being so sick I couldn't eat and slept 14 hours a day, so I guess it evens out.

Lexie, don't feel bad. I was supposed to clean the entire house (bathrooms included) do the laundry and finish cleaning Jake's room to make way for an extra dresser. Instead, I took my kids to a water park. I am doing laundry and managed to get dishes done, but that is about it. Tomorrow is going to be very busy as I have to have the house ready for my exchange student. I know it isn't always going to be perfect, but when he gets here, he is going to be half dead and culture shocked so I would at least like the house to be free of clutter. I know that when my house or room is cluttered, I can't think straight in it.
So tomorrow, I need to do a ton of shopping, clean, clean, and clean. I did wash all of the laundry tonight so tomorrow is folding day.

Actually I did get the bathroom clean yesterday. And it's a good thing I waited, because Dh came home from work yesterday and shaved his head. I always need to clean after he has shaved his head, even though he is very careful to stay neat, the bathroom needs a total cleaning afterwards. He stays bald or keeps his hair very low, so when he shaves, there are tiny, tiny hairs everywhere!
Today:
-finish tidying Akeelah's room
-tidy our room (since Akeelah seems to have just moved the mess there)
-go to the post office (if it's not raining)
-go to the dollar store

Today I must:
- Do all the bills. Urgently.
- Pack for our 4-day renovate-a-thon (I'm tired already just thinking about it. sigh. Hopefully we will get close to done, because I'm coming up on 5 months pregnant and I have about a month before I can no longer bend at the waist).
- Tidy up for not being here.
- Fold laundry from yesterday
- Double-check the 4 pages of algorithms from yesterday I worked to figure out which pumps to buy for the new heating system (for some reason, being pregnant messes up the "math" part of my brain. yargh.)
- Make sure the tomatos will last 4 days without my intervention.

I'm a list person, only it seems that since I started working full-time I just don't have time to make lists anymore.
Tonight before going to bed (it's already 6.15pm) -
- Wash J and X's sheets
- Wash dh's and my sheets
- Hang out all the washing
- Get J and X washing up after dinner (it's already cooking)
- Sweep the kitchen floor
- Make dh's and my bed and get the kids making theirs
- Sort all the clean washing so I can get all my baskets back to start all over again tomorrow
- Put clothes away
- Watch Australian Idol
- Tidy loungeroom floor
- Vacuum (so that first thing tomorrow morning I can shampoo the carpets throughout)
- Mop (so that the dirt from those floors doesn't get trekked onto the newly shampooed carpet)
- Get kids to bed

Did nothing today I feel so ashamed. We had a swimming party and I was so exhausted after that.
Tomorrow doesn't look much better I have to go to my mom's and mow grass. That totally zaps me.

Right, in a fit of organisation, I'm putting my list up the night before - do I get any brownie points? 
Tomorrow is going to be a shock to the system. I've got work 8.30-5, then I'm tutoring 6-7, then I have a workout class 8.30-9.30. I am going to be so tired! I'm still on holiday mode mentally. However, here are my seven tasks to do  :
To do, Monday 1st September:
Write and send thank you notes for this weekends events (done!)
Do a load of laundry (darks)
Ironing
Prep stuff for further tutor sessions (done!)
Clean kitchen, do dishes (done!)
Find an engagement card for my little sister (and research gifts!) (done!)
Empty bins (done!)
And after all that, I will sleep like a baby! 
Bwahahahaha! This list was WAY to optimistic for the first day back at school....
Hence why Tuesday's list contains a few 'recycles'!
Today's tasks:
* Do a load of laundry (darks)
* Ironing
* Clean kitchen, do dishes (does this chore ever stop?)
* Tidy the chair o' doom (I've now been trying to do this for a week! )
* Buy groceries
Have a great day, all!
