What Went Down While Mum Was Away




Clutter Rescue show

Summary: Last week I had the pleasure of hanging out with the gorgeous Professional Organisers at the annual Australasian Association of Professional Organisers Conference in Melbourne. What an amazing time we had with fabulous speakers including Dorothy Breininger, one of the Organisers on and Producers of the Hoarders TV program. I was so excited! My outfits were planned and packed all ready to fly out on Wednesday morning.  Before this, of course, there was a little organising of Hubby and Mr 6 so that they could manage everything while I was away. Mr 6 had a very busy schedule while I was at the Conference. Soccer training Wednesday night, tennis Thursday after school, school on the three days I was away, soccer game on Saturday morning and a play date later that day. It seems, from an outsiders view when I returned home, that everything went smoothly. All except one thing. And to be honest it’s not that big a deal! But it shows how cool my Mr 6 is! In our home we have two washing baskets – one in Hubby and my room and one in the bathroom for Mr 6′s washing. Because Hubby regularly walked past our washing basket he thought, on Saturday, that he should wash the dirty clothes. Mr 6, while showering after soccer on Saturday, said “Daddy when are you going to wash my clothes?”. Hubby had completely forgotten that all of Mr 6′s school uniforms needed washing! Looks like I can go away at any time, knowing my six year old will stay on top of the housework! Now all I need is for him to train his Dad! Would love to hear if you have had this happen in your home. Until next time, happy organising!
