I couldn't even find a Christmas tree, so I failed at the first hurdle...! Hope Santa will do... But I did do Wednesday's stuff yesterday, with a few extras. So I'm hoping all I do is this:

DONE
Wednesday ~ bathroom annd cruddy study


Level One
Declutter floors
Mop /Hoover
Level Two
Empty and wash out bins.. to make it worth while you should fill them first!
Scrub bath, tiles, shower head.. you all read the link I hope?!.. sinks toilets keyboards mouses etc...
Defrag pc.. delete 50 unwanted emails and 10 dead/unused links
Installed Firefox Adblocker to stop Yahoo adverts overloading my CPU all the time and freezing my PC!
Level Three
[STRIKE]Clear the desk of gibble and give it a dust as you dust and deweb the rooms[/STRIKE]
Shine any mirrors and clear mantels
Sorted through my old contact lenses (hard ones), and kept a few pairs for spares, and junked the rest
Hoovered the landing outside the bathroom
Emptied airing cupboard before cleaning and put all the clothes away
Polished wooden bathroom units with eucalyptus-oil based polish ...mmmmm....
Buffed all the taps with Windolene

Hope this is OK - and thanks for letting me join in

If he doesn't know they are there then it should be easier to get rid of some? Do a box at a time with three or four piles: keep, throw away, give away, not sure? HHC?

If all of that has failed then...

KICK!

Windows finished and plastering work done. Have decided not to go with quote for homer, we have used a different guy who I think would charge less, TBH I don't think the guy wanted the work. Will try ringing the other bloke later.

Right now I am free of workmen I need to get myself in gear so...
