    So okay, day three.... I don;t have any tiles in my bathroom, and no shower curtain, I don't have a pc room (well I do, but it is my bedroom where I use my laptop mostly, and we did that yesterday!) Lodger is not at work today, so I could have a fighting chance of completing this challenge.... :D:D

    Thursday Bathroom and Study/Pc Area
    Level One

    Clean floors in these rooms
    Clean baths, toilets and sinks
    Level Two
    Clear any clutter from desk
    Dust PC and desk and wipe off those cup rings!! (baby wipes are fantastic for this!!)
    Wipe keyboard and mouse (these usually have more germs on than your toilet so important).. And your house phone.. they must be just as vile..
    Level Three
    Wipe down tiles in bathroom
    Clean shower screen/curtain if you have one/if required
    Clean the brushes/dust box/filters on the vacuum cleaner!!!! .. make sure they are completely dry before using it though.. I don’t want anyone electrocuted!!
    Extra mission:
    • Sort through those half empty bottles or ones with only a dribble left and decant into one bottle and recycle the rest!!
    • Wash your bathroom mats etc
    My extra's - post letters, post parcels, order photo prints, sort out the contract on yesterday's list that never got done....

    Sleep well folks, see you tomorrow/today (depending on when you sleep :rolleyes:)

    To be frugal, you need to spend money wisely, simply spending less is not enough.
    If you can't handle me at my worst then you don't deserve me at my best...
    Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I will try again tomorrow.

    Forgot to say...

    Pooh-bear - so sorry to hear your sad news hon, what a tough decision.
    Rosepink - that link was very funny!

    I did my Thorntons order a few days ago and have all my Christmas pressies sorted now and a nice hamper for me to ([STRIKE]eat[/STRIKE]) share. I used TopCashBack so 10% there too.

    Also treated myself to some new sheets from Amazon today as they were reduced in price. Link HERE. My Super-king size were around £10 reduced down from £34, and I had vouchers in stock which was even better.

    I went through my OHs blog site so we earn 5% cash back. Amazon doesn't appear on most cashback sites (except Nectar points which we don't collect) so at least this way we get something. If anyone wants to order and doesn't collect nectar points, I would love it if you pmed me for his link so you can get to Amazon through there. :D

    Morning all
    I'm in again today....very busy though as DD is back at school, so there's the school walk to do. Then I'm off to my mum's - we're going to look around the shops, so there will be more of that shopping to do (have nearly finished, just need to get a few bits and pieces).

    So I don't really think I'll be getting much of the list done today, but I'll have a go!

    Take care, hope you all have a good day - it's a bit windy here and I've got to go and chase the recycling around the close before the collectors get here!
