Valli - you say you've done the bathroom (which ain't on the list yet) and the living room. Are you claiming stars for the living room? Your post wasn't clear..
I claimed for the living room on monday which I think I got -
bathroom and kitchen are usually half a list each but I had to do them today as they require mopping and hot water to clean which I won't have tomorrow as the gas is going off. And it's too soon to do my bedroom again!
So just the one star so far, which I have. I wasn't claiming just pointig out that I was cleaning really....
many thanks!Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

evening all
have been completely MIA this week, not sure where the time has gone! I've been working hard but not really done much flying. My dad and his partner are coming tomorrow - not staying with us but it will be the first time she has been to the flat so I will get up a bit extra early tonight and make sure it's all ok. Thankfully DH did a good job cleaning at the weekend so I just need to put the clean laundry away and clear a couple of books and things from the coffee table.
Hope everyone is ok - soappie noticed above that you're having a tough time.Mum to gorgeous baby boy born Sept 2010:j0 -

Sorry to be picky, Toots, but my name appears on the list of honour - without its star...
:embarasse
It was the Living Room (yesterday).
Tomorrow I am going into DDs pit to collect my first EVER star in that room (or perish in the process :eek:). It could be tough, folks.....
Take care everyone,
MissH
