Just touched on this thread for the first time, amazed, and before I slink away with a red face, realising I am actually even more of a slob than I already knew, please someone explain how to do that 'crossing through' of something on a list? Not that I'll be making a housework list... clutter is my 'comfort blanket', as long as the worktops and loos are clean the rest will wait! And cleaning the windows would only make it rain.
This really is the best,most friendly, most fun thread on the whole of MSE (and there are several slobs)0 -
