    Oh no the rain has started! I'm doing a HHE tonight and going running. Did 1.5 miles yesterday morning and will do the same again tonight.

    Kids are on cheesy mash and beans for a quick tea with DH on left over shepherds pie. Not sure about me....maybe a tuna mayo wrap so I'm not too full to run.

    To do when I get back from the school run:

    Wipe units
    Sweep & mop floor
    Clean & organise fridge.

    See you in a bit.

    How did you get on FFPrincess?

    I got carried away I couldn't close one of the kitchen drawers so I took it out and there was a mass of paper work behind it before I knew where I was it was 12.30 and 2DS was in for lunch! Never mind plenty of work and shreading done and now in the compost bin (I dare an ID thief to try to get my details!)

    we are back from the park (another hour done!)
    it keeps me away from all the food which is great!!

    if just my back would stop aching i'd get on with things ... really :D

    had a right go at OH earlier (clothes on the floor in BR, bowl on the drainer and NOT in the empty dw, the carpettiles are still in the LR on the floor after 3 days!! guess who took them upstairs!!)
    :o i had a good moan and i am feeling better now :D

    spaghetti are cooked for carbonara later!

    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.

    if you quote your own post you don't have to do it all again!

    Okay, this is how I have done so far....


    Mondays are Marvellous!! - kitchen and dining area
    Level One
    [STRIKE]Sweep and mop the floor[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Declutter and wipe the worksurfaces[/STRIKE]
    Level Two
    Wipe the table- have avoided the dining room- baby steps I have been told !
    degunge the fridge- not too bad as it is so will do this next week
    [STRIKE]Wipe the units and large appliances[/STRIKE]
    Level Three
    wipe any dining chairs that are grotty
    [STRIKE]Wash the windows and sills[/STRIKE]- did the walls and doors of the kitchen
    [STRIKE]Clean all those small appliances and give 1 a thorough clean.[/STRIKE] - did the washing machine, yeuch ! :D
    Extras
    1. Deweb and polish
    2. Clear out a cupboard of junk!
    3. Wash any curtains/table cloths that need it
    4. [STRIKE]S&S the hob & oven[/STRIKE]
    Things to do- contact the union to see if they have heard anything, mystery shop on Tuesday, baking bread/ rolls every 2 days


    So not too bad really although I have avoided the dining room. My big problem is that my wife is a hoarder and won't let me get rid of anything without her going over it at first. She wants to car boot the unwanted stuff- (which is right seeing as I am in the process of losing my job)- but it does slow everything down and means we have boxes of stuff cluttering up the place.
    Divorce all finished- now to start saving for a better future!
