Change any bedding you need to get washed before the fat guy arrives.. and I do not mean the OH/parent/ etc
Spend at least half an hour doing something for yourself.. reading.. relaxing.. goggling... remember you are important too.
Change pet bedding and wash blankies etc.. we don't want them putting you off your christmas sprouts!
Dust round the whole downstairs
Tuesday - Time's nearly up!!!- Vacuum through downstairs.. and the stairs!
- Prepare a list for that last second shopping
- Have a skim through the TV guide and decide what you want to watch.. it saves missing bits of stuff if you know what is on and when!! Don't forget to make time for Queenie!
- Toy boxes can be banished upstairs!
- Wash any soft furnishings in need of freshening up
- Tidy up coats and shoes and suchlike
- WRAP WRAP WRAP!
- Spend half an hour doing NOTHING!!.. absolutely nothing!!!! Just sit.. and relax with a drink and a treat!
