Fabulous Friday 5 minute challenge
These have kind of petered out, but hopefully with the new SHBC they will pick back up. Its always more fun to play if there are more people.
I'll explain for newbies. Every time you see this thread pop up in your user cp, get up, set a timer and see how much you can get done. Then come back and post what you got done.

Re: Fabulous Friday 5 minute challenge
Thanks for starting the thread.
Adding for the newbies: If the timer approach doesn't work, feel free to make a to-do list and let us know how you are doing with your list. I've started laundry, and I'm dressed (when I have nowhere to go anytime soon, this is a big deal ). My to do list: -take out garbage and recycling -start next load of laundry -put away my laundry -damp wipe the master bathroom (dusting and walls...it has otherwise been cleaned) -make lunch

Re: Fabulous Friday 5 minute challenge
Thanks. I never played with the to do list, so didn't know how it worked.
I shampooed the rug in the dining room (we did the carpet last night, and had to wait for it to dry to put the rug down and the table back.) Washing bedding Loaded dishwasher Hand washed pots and pans Put trash out the front door Took pictures of my chaos for the SHBC Fed the kids Got everyone dressed ---------- Post added at 11:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ---------- Made the bed took out trash/recycling picked up toys

Re: Fabulous Friday 5 minute challenge
My to do list:
-start next load of laundry -put away my laundry -make lunch Revised list: -put away my laundry -finish unpacking suitcases (From 2 months ago. I would put blushing smilie, but I actually had culture shock pretty bad after going to Haiti, and I couldn't make myself deal with all my bags--I did initially take out the laundry and food stuffs) -dust all the things in my bedroom (with a damp cloth) -wash my bed linens
