    Xmas card list, can someone explain it to me please?

    Just woken up after falling to sleep for about 3 hours, I 'think' I feel better for it, but not yet sure.

    I feel guilty not doing anything flying this afternoon, but every thing for ONCE, seems clean and tidy, even the one who uses my stardrop to clean his motorbike has gone out this morning to visit his sister, so I don't even have to clean round him.......

    Thanks Valli - I should be able to get the glass next Saturday as I drive past there on my way back from getting my hair done ... (if I remember!)

    I hope you've put lashings of handcream on after scrubbing your worktops

    I've cleaned all my lampshades with sticky clothes brush, cleaned out the glass lampshades in the hall, changed the lightbulbs in the hall and ONE of the outside lights to energy-saving bulbs (have to go and buy another edison-screw fit, as I seem to have lots of fittings for thse and lots of bayonet bulbs :rolleyes: )

    I also inspected my kitchen drawers, and they're all pretty clean and not that full, so no need to clean :D ; downstairs & stairs now decluttered - just books to put away and hotspot to weed this evening, and glass to inspect & clean if necessary.

    Off shopping... see you later

    I love my mummy :D Her and Dad have just dropped off a bottle of zoflora :D I made it up into a spray bottle and I've cleaned DD's bed & the toilet with it. DD's waterproof sheet is in the washing machine again, on its own, with a cap full. Then I'll rewash the bedding as all the big bits have come off and its now herby type stuff on it :rolleyes: Sorry if TMI :o

    Caught up with all my online DB123 bits (checking hints and tips for the ECA ;) ) and started some of the essay which I did in note form over the week. Problem is that DD is watching Miracle on 34th Street (Richard Attenborough version) and its putting me off. :o

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    Can I echo Kazwookie's request for an explanation of the xmas card list? It sounds intriguing.
    Hmm haven't persuaded Dad to buy me a load of cleaning stuff yet but shall be getting around to it. Don't know where around us sells stardrops, but I will find them!
    Hope everyone is well! Love and hugs xx
