    In my HHC, I:
    Washed up
    Decluttered kitchen floor - tried to hoover but hoover is definitely broken
    Find and wipe the worksurfaces
    Wipe the big appliances and units.. don't forget kickboards!
    Wiped paintwork on kitchen wall and cleaned the lightswitch

    Took rubbish out...

    and managed to lock myself out! I turned round to catch the door but it closed too quickly! So I had to go round to our neighbour who has our key, they are normally both out on Thursdays, but happily Jacob was home doing some gardening so he gave me the spare.

    And then Tesco arrived! Have put away fridge and freezer stuff

    So I've been quite productive really. How have all of you got on with your HHC's?

    Afternoon all.

    Thank you for the stars Soappie, sorry to keep moaning :(

    I did all the bedrooms when I did mine the other day. I've washed another two throws today and washed the cats blankets. The machine has been on for a hot cleaning cycle too.

    I've dusted the living room and computer desk (again) and vacuumed right through downstairs.

    So I think I'm OK to ask for a fourth star, please.


    Going to read a few more posts then dish up dinner.

    Happy Birthday toochoosey :)
