Two hours later, I have an understairs cupboard that you can walk into again. I've also discovered I have enough wrapping paper for the next 2 Christmases I think!
Am going to finish the living room now (there was no point in doing it until the cupboard was done, because everything had to come out into there to be sorted and put back).I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

Hope the dentist was OK Dusty.
Thank you for the list Soappie, lucky I did the living room then! My understairs cupboard is still OK since I did it a week or two ago.
Hope Toots is OK too.
Washing all dry and put away and dinner is cooking.

Mainly as I did it last night and this morning... so only when I saw what was on the list could I update it... I have nothing in the hall or landing so it really is a matter of cleaning the light fittings, plug sockets and vacuum/mop... I have no clutter... if I see any I either throw it away or put it away.... keeping this place tidy is my No.1 mission!Well lets see - I dip in and out of MSE all the time but I still come back - have done since 2007!!!

Hi All,
I'm new to this thread and need all the help I can get - it's either that or I will be buying a large box of matches, ha!
Can I start from tomorrow, guess from reading others posts, that a list is posted? Will check back tomorrow, and here is my tree for being a newbie :xmastree:0
