    my HHC involved attacking the dishes from last night and clearing the mess OH left when making his sandwiches. I would like to declare me whole home a hot spot. Where did all the stuff come from.

    Level Two
    [STRIKE]Wipe sofas[/STRIKE] the leather was filthy, and lots of crumbs down the back, yuck
    Vacuum under furniture you can safely move.. I don't want any hurt backs!
    Sort coats and shoes and bags

    [STRIKE]Clear mantel and put back only what should be up there!
    Wipe and water plants[/STRIKE]

    Dusted and cleaned the open wooden stairs
    put folded clean washing away

    Better get going with the hoovering then and the rest of the list.

    I like it better in half hour stints, knowing I can come back for a sit down and a read, maybe not the most productive but it works for me, not the best at motivating myself in doing housework.:o

    p.s. Can I just say how I love that the picture of Martin changes with the seasons, just noticed his St Andrews day outfit and backing, brilliant.
