    Evening all...

    :bdaycake:Happy Birthday Rach, hope you've had a good day!

    I believe there are some Yankee candle fans on here & I'd like to ask a daft question. I treated myself to a burner & some wax tarts, the scent is great, very strong, but does the wax evaporate? It says the scent lasts for 8 hours, so do I throw the wax away after 8 hours?

    Here's my list:
    Monday - Living room, hall and stairs
    :j:jALL DONE:j:j

    Tuesday ~ Kitchen, Utility and Dining Area
    Level One
    Wipe and replace small appliances
    Declutter and wipe work surfaces
    Level Two
    Sweep and mop floors
    Wipe units/appliances
    Clear and wipe window sills.. do not put back the junk.. bin it!
    Level Three
    Tidy, clear and wipe the top of the fridge and freezer
    Clean one small appliance thoroughly.. microwave, kettle, iron,
    Clean appliance filters.. WM, DW, Kettle, Vacuum cleaner.. cooker hood..

    Off to watch Glee.....

    BenW, I think you've taken Crafty's post totally the wrong way. I don't think for one moment she was directing her comments at you personally. I think she quoted it to add to her thoughts on how the OS Daily thread regulars were totally bemused by the sudden influx of flyladies (of which she herself was one!) xxx

    Well, I have decided with the encouragement from on here, to give the other thread another go and Crafty the benefit of the doubt.

    Will be back flying tomorrow.

    BTW, what filter is there in a kettle??
