Well, I got a bit more done yesterday and I'm pleased with my progress. The flat looks so much better already - and it was lovely waking up this morning/coming home from work to a clean flat.
But - can you believe this - I didn't do the flipping washing up! I ran out of time and I went out last night, and was too tired/tipsy when I got in. Honestly, I didn't even manage one day of my MACAW challenge! Anyway, I've done the washing up now (even though I'm tired and hungover), I've had a nice cup of coffee, and there's a hot bath running. I probably won't do anything else tonight, but I've had a little bit of a tidy, and I might do some decluttering while watching Gok's Fashion Fix later.
