Back again with another :coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee::coffee:. Help yourselves. Just done a bit of vacuuming upstairs then the Dyson died! :eek: Might just be the fuse, but I came downstairs to get one and stopped to do a HHC in the new study, putting files way etc, so quite pleased with the progress in there. So my list is now:
Wonderful Wednesday (Temporarily Thursday! :rotfl:) - Master Bedrooms and Landings
Level Three
Vacuum mattress
Clean tops of drawers
Clean doors including handles downstairs
Leftovers:
Manic Monday - Kitchen, Utility and Dining Room/Area
Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs on way round
Clean washer drawer, filters on the dryer, dishwasher and cooker hood filters
Terrific Tuesday - Living Room, Den and Stairs
Level Two
Vacuum and wipe (if needed) sofas
Level Three
Dust anything above eye level (if safe to do so)
Clear anything that shouldn't be where it is!
Wipe the bits next to the steps on the stairs.
Extra Mission Tasks - as usual try one or more of these
Check where important documents like passports, birth certificates, driving licences, medical cards are and make a note of where they are and if any need replacing, changing etc
Clean out the vacuum cleaner, empty the bag/bucket, clean filters if they are washable MAKE SURE YOU DON'T PUT THEM BACK UNTIL THEY ARE DRY!
