    I dont mind the singing and prancing. Is it Christmas songs she's singing? That might tip me over the edge...

    The past couple of days it been various pop songs, yesterday it was Queen songs ALL day, today its now various songs, she even singing the theme to Harry Potter. Some singing I can cope with, its the constant noise non-stop. I swear some days she doesn't stop at all, in her sleep she mumbles, and I've know her to still be singing/talking when eating/drinking :wall:
    Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.
    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Daily (I didn't really 'get' this last week)

    [strike]Peg out washing [/strike](using all yellow pegs, naturally;) )
    [strike]Remove detergent drawer to dry it [/strike](new washer - my last washer ended up gross in this area so I am not going to let this happen again).
    [strike]S & S bathroom [/strike]- recharge toothbrush if necessary
    [STRIKE]
    Bathroom floor mopped with water from mopping kitchen floor.
    [/STRIKE]
    Monday Melee - Kitchen and Dining Room
    Level One
    [strike]
    Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces
    Clear 1 window sill
    [/strike]Level Two
    [strike]
    Sweep and mop floors
    Scrub out the sticky fridge!
    [/strike]Wipe dining table.. (clean table cloth if necessary)
    Level Three
    Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs (are cobwebs still there LOL;) ) on way round
    Wipe and replace all those small appliances.. kettle, toaster etc
    [strike]
    Clean cupboard door fronts and fronts of appliances .. don't forget those kick boards..
    Clean out your mankiest kitchen cupboard. Can't decide - under sink still looks fab! Might do pan cupboard (it's a double! Aargh)
    [/strike]Extra Mission : help yourself

    1. [strike]
    2. Clean the hob
    3. Wipe down any tiles and shine those taps.. a toothbrush is great for cleaning away the gunk!
    4. [/strike]Sort out bank account (ahem! hangs head in shame:o )


    Well I feel that I've done really well - I've even done the cupboard tops so definite level 3 kitchen clean!

    And I've got a flybaby!

    DD has

    Made cheat's Banoffi pie
    Hand brushed her bedroom carpet to remove hairs - our carpets, despite being wool, cling to hairs and cat fur like a magnet - it looks pristine!
    And is doing another fling! I just need to encourage her to fling stuff OUT OF THE HOUSE and not into another room for me to shift!

    So I just need to do the dining room table and a quick dust/vacuum to include vacuuming light fitting to remove dead flies - they weren't there last week!

    Now I'm going to read all your posts.

    Mudbath - healing vibes are coming your way.

    Sarahshattered - nice to hear your daughter (DD2) feeling a little better and not suffering too much.

    See you soon.

    Tiamai_d - thanks for the reply about the xbox - I think I'll probably leave it to OH to deal with.
    (Good job we only have two weeks of the holidays left!)

    I'm ashamed to say I fell asleep this afternoon and didn't get very far down my list but I have changed my bed which is great!

    Off to the kitchen, hoping that OH isn't home too early from work!
