Hi,
Thanks for all the nice messages. I want to start getting organised with the housework but am a bit confused as to what I should be aiming to do on a daily basis. I understand about levels 1, 2 & 3 but it's the rest I don't understand0 -
OK, so I was perhaps a little ambitious, hoping to get it all done by 3.30. I won't beat myself up though, as I have all day!
Tuesday twinkles! - Living room, hall and stairs!
Level One
[strike]Declutter and vacuum![/strike] - decluttering took forever. Papers all over the table, but now I can see the surfaces!
Spend half an hour doing something for yourself! - This will be listening to the radio at 3.30 and knitting in my bestest ever clean living room!:D Have another 15 minutes to spare!
Level Two
[strike]Vacuum sofa[/strike]
[strike]Wash windows [/strike]- inside only, as someone has stolen my sunshine:mad: and I want it back. Now.
[strike]dust and deweb[/strike]!.. don't forget furry skirtings!
Level three
Vacuum right the way up the stairs! - Lovely wooden stairs, a quick go over with the Dustpan & Brush will do the trick!
Sort through coats n bags n shoes etc - Aaagghh!! I have about 20 coats hanging up, and nowhere to put them. I must though, as I can only just open the front door!
Extras- Sort through a handbag - I love playing handbags!
- [strike]Sort through a cupboard or drawer of junk[/strike] - done last week! ALL drawers!
- [strike]Sift through a pile of paperwork and file or shred as appropriate [/strike]see above!
- HHI
- Re-pot house plants, including all little babies!
- Sort out old photos. After all, I don't look at them regularly, but need to dust the boxes lots!
- Not really FLYing, but have to read book for Book Group tomorrow evening. I haven't started it yet!:eek:

The "extras" are suggestions - the acronyms are all on page one of the thread (HHI/C/E, etc). Just do as much or as little as you want/can.
Hope this helps!:A FLY FIRST, KNIT LATER :A0 -
