    Dinner is cooking.

    I've shifted the recycling bins up to the back gate ready to be put out when I come in from work tonight.

    The washing is doing really well.

    Ooooh new hoover - which one did you get mof77? I'm so nosey and I like hoovers.

    Went and looked at my kitchen floor and came and sat back down, *found 2 choc digestives though so not all was lost....don't really have time to do anything now as I've got to go back to work shortly.

    OH's just brought the second hand wall units for my utility room (he's ripping a kitchen out) :T just need to find somewhere to put them now as the shed roof still isn't fixed and I don't want them to get water damaged.

    Flying: I'm decluttering my desk as we speak...

    ETA: * not on the kitchen floor :D

    PS> Does it annoy anyone else that when you paste your list you've got to cross things off again? I'm not doing it all again.
    YES it annoys me!

    In my HHC I put the mash from last night into freezer containers and labled them, then had to do battle with the freezer to make space in there for them!
    Then I washed up. I hate washing up. Did I ever mention that before? Didn't really get very far, so will need to do at least one more load of washing up before I can clean the worktop :mad: Will probably do it while watching doctors.
    Am having a sit down now cos I'm really really really tired and my headache is starting to come back.

    Embb, did you find th chocolate digestives on the floor? ETA: Just seen your ETA!

    In my HHC I hoovered the entire upstairs of the house, put a load of washing on, put all of the laundry into the correct mountains, and did the whole of the bedroom list from last week, which I hadn't done before. How did everyone else do?

    I'm not going to be working this afternoon as I've still had no call, so I'm going to eat some lunch, take my application round to the school (think I'll walk this time to see exactly how long it takes to walk there) and then will walk to old neighbours to visit her and hopefully get a cup of tea after all of my exercise today.

    Afternoon all could i join this thread please? my every day cleaning jobs are almost always done :o but i lack motivation on the bigger jobs like cleaning the ovens and windows and i could use some motivation to declutter a few areas.....well all the cupboards and drawers if i am honest :rotfl: . The only thing my lovely new duster has been used for is when the kids chase the kittens away from the cats litter tray :o . Today so far the beds have been made, upstairs toilet/bathroom cleaned, kids clothes and pj's for tonight and tomorrow are ready and i have hoovered/scrubbed the kitchen floor, benches and radiator. Will hopefully be able to do some tasks on the list for today.

    I use bicarbonate of soda on a cloth, vinegar spray or stardrops to clean mine.
