    I'm all done - can I please have a star!!! It has taken me longer than I thought it would, but I have done a more thorough job than usual so am pleased with myself.

    Also did the cloakroom and dusting/polishing in the hall, washed, dried and put away a couple of loads of washing, and did the dishwasher.

    Bring on tomorrow's list!!

    Very Panto though :rotfl:

    Kitchen almost finished.

    Sis and friend popped in for a cuppa which was nice.

    DH has been decorating all day

    Given in and allowed a friend over for a couple of hours to entertain DS3

    Going to do the kitchen floor to finish off and then best start the dinner.

    Wow, I can't believe how quickly this thread moves!!! I'm not going to try and read every reply as I'll be here for ages!

    We ended up over at SILs for 3 hours instead of 1 hour so I did get behind but here's my list:

    Here's my list for today:
    [STRIKE]Go shopping[/STRIKE]
    Pay in 2 cheques at the bank - I tried but bank still shut!
    Walk the dog - DH doing later
    Get DD to start thank you letters - will do after tea

    Monday ~ Kitchen and Dining Area
    Level One
    [STRIKE]Declutter and wipe those worksurfaces
    Sweep and mop the floor[/STRIKE]

    Standard morning routine:
    [STRIKE]Empty dishwasher
    Empty washing machine
    Take down washing that is hopefully dry from being on our nifty airer!
    Put away washing / put to iron
    Hang up wet washing[/STRIKE]

    I haven't done half as much as some of you guys but it's so hard when you have other people/kids around and actually go out of the house too isn't it lol
