    Not done much today yet. No washing (there's a little bit in the basket but it's pouring with rain so I'll do it tomorrow).

    I've S&Sd the kitchen and given the sink a good clean. Peeled potatoes for dinner. Washed up and put everything away. DD2 has been in and she's gone to have her fitting for her bridesmaid dress and she'll be back again after.

    It's such a miserable day, I think I'll just pootle about, I did loads the last couple of days so I'm not behind on anything.

  • Ah I see, sounds like a good idea thanks Soappie! I'm wondering how much Holly will do in that time now!
    Have been lurking on this thread for a while. But thought i'd say hello.
    I'm off work atm with a poorly knee but still want to achieve some cleaning.
    Todays plan
    -Wash all the towels
    -Put all the bedding away (washed all that yday)
    - Unpack my suitcase (went away 2 weeks ago :o)
    - Sort out the enormous pile of clothes on my bedroom floor! Yes I know that sounds bad, but i think they're there in the hope i'll get round to ironing them all!

    Not sure how this works, do i just come back later and tick the ones I've done?
