I'm Currently Feeling: | Nesting Instinct?! Whats all this about?! Does everyone get it because I don't think I have had it yet lol!!! I've got to go and sort out kitchen and have decided to scrub out the oven and hob but its not an instinctive urge to do it lol, I just feel that I might as well do something as opposed to do nothing!!
Have got my Mum coming round soon and she's a major tidy person, my parents house always looks like a show house lol, and I just know that my little cottage kind of doesn't!! OH's weights and his WII fit board are sitting under a chair in the lounge, and don't get me wrong my house is clean and hygienic but its messy with just, stuff!! We don't have a great deal of storage space so knowing where to put stuff is just a nightmare, but even so I'm not getting the urge to find everything its own space and am wondering if I'm going to ever get this nesting instinct!! x |

I'm Currently Feeling: | i have it. badly. I just want everythign tidy adn neat adn I want all clutter thrown out.
Ive started the big tidy but am at that horrid in between stage where the house is more messy than when i started. Stresses me out it does.
It'll be a couple fo weeks before its sorted but it will be done..it's got to be for my own mental health.
dont even mention cleaning ovens...thats one job i'm ignoring ...for now.. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Haha excellent - my OH wants me to get nesting SO much lol, I do start to do stuff like try to find places for everything and throw stuff out and what have you but like you I get to the stage where I think 'this is more of a mess than before I began!' then I get tired and have to sit down and then can't get motivated to start up again!! x |

I'm Currently Feeling: | i wish i were nesting! i def get urges to clean and such, but my feet knees back (the list goes on) are too sore to actually do any of it and it's killing me because DH is super lazy! and when i do clean or laundry or something it only lasts a day before everything needs cleaning again or more laundry lol...and it's just me and DH here now! can't wait to see how messy it will get around here with a LO! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | YouŽre not the only one! I keep wondering when this nesting thing is going to kick in as well. I keep looking around and recognise that I do need to sort stuff out, but I just canŽt be bothered!!
I wiped some dust off the windowsill yesterday and made a mental note to do some cleaning today - have I eckers like!! IŽve been making birthday cards instead, IŽll nip out to the shop in a bit to pick up some essentials and then it will be time for Taggart on the telly - and thats my time to lie on the sofa and stick my feet up!!! Well I donŽt want my feet to swell too much!!
As for the cleaning....well theres always tomorrow!! | | | | Status: Offline
