Oh, and Chore Wars helped me realize my baby might really be ready for solids, as her ped suggested - she’s eating 7-8 times a day, sometimes every hour or so. She never ate this often, not even when she was a newborn

Would the experienced moms here agree? She’ll be 6mo the day after tomorrow.
 
**OK…I am digging myself out of a three week long hole. I will kick butt with points. Only…I don’t know how to join. 😊 **
 
**OK…dummy here just got it! :doh2: **
I am: C99
**I know, I know…how creative…:rolleyes: 😃 **
**Thanks for letting me join! 🙂 **
 
**It said I maxed out my points and have done over eight hours of work today…funny…it didn’t take that long to do it as I remember…hmm…:o …I must be “speed queen the power cleaner”…:o Though, you wouldn’t know it from the looks of my apartment. 😃 **
 
I just joined…what fun!!! Thanks a bunch for starting this group! I DEFINATELY need some sort of motivation for doing chores…i’m gonna show this site to my hubby…maybe he’ll start doing chores too for once :rolleyes:

Don’t worry, you can log the rest in tomorrow! 🙂 Just choose “yesterday” where you can say when you did the chore.

Anyone figure out the hit points yet?
 
I can’t get into the site today for some reason - I’ll keep trying, I think we are ready for a new access code. Write down those adventures so you don’t loose track!! 😃

I just logged some adventures and had no problems with the site.
 
Yep - it’s back up now. Here is the latest code if you need it:

Hey all! This is so much fun that I made a personal account for myself too! I made the adventures better match the work I do (or need to do 😉 ) in a typical day/week. I don’t have kids, but we do have multiple pets. So I made more pet chores, in place of baby care. Also, I put extra points on dusting, vacuuming and cleaning the tub, as these are so very hard on my asthma. I wanted them to be extra high point values for sure.
**My personal household group name is called: “Doggie Duty Drive” in case you have the ability to veiw other groups (I opted not too.) 🙂 **
I will try my best to log for both accounts. Maybe we should make a miscelaneous category in two parts.

Miscelaneous…heavy duty/high effort (60XP)
Miscelaneous…light duty/low effort (20XP)

For all the chores that really don’t fit anywhere else.

**Just a thought! 🙂 **

**Well…I am foaming at the mouth over cleaning. Somebody help me quick…before its too late! :eek: **
 
I am so glad to see that I am not the only one who struggles with keeping their house halfway decent! I may have to join up too, just for the motivation!
 
**I found some info to give us further motivation! 😃 **

What do I get for remembering to put the toilet seat back down so my wife doesn’t fall in in the middle of the night? Seems to me I should get a lot of credit for that 👍

One-tenth of a point? 😃

My husband wouldn’t get even that… He says: “It’s not fair. Why don’t YOU women remember to put the toilet seat back UP?”
 
Well…we changed our group name.

We are now the "Dogs and Suds"

**That about sums up my entire day…taking care of dogs and cleaning. 😃 **

**BTW: My husband joined my group. Isn’t that awesome! This is just too good to be true! Anything to inspire housework has to be a good thing…right? 👍 **
**P.S. I tried to log my days work for both groups. This is getting to be an extra chore. Do we get points for logging our housework each day? I vote yes! 😃 😉 **

I logged a third XP for Low Effort Stuff (6 XP) for logging points. 👍
