I've put away dry washing up, cleaned the bathroom sink, emptied the bath (we've been storing things in it) so can have a bath later, and set up clothes airer so can hang out washing later
DH is on his way home with food!yay!so hungry!

Quick question - does everyone wash their bedding and turn their mattress every week? I only ever used to do my bedding once a month, if that! (I must be a grotty cow lol) I thought mattresses were a twice yearly job!

If its any help I put a clean sheet on one day, then 2 or 3 days later put on clean pillowcases, then 2 or 3 days later change the duvet cover. That way you get the lovely 'fresh bed' feeling/smell to last a lot longer! Also it only takes 2 minutes to do anyone of these, much less daunting than doing it all in one go..! (and easier to get DH to do 'just the one!'):D
Sorry but I can't sign up for this site as I would spend all day on here, it's far too addictive! I love the daily tasks and find it really helpful to have these as a reminder to dip into, THANK YOU ALL!:T

rosepink - sorry to hear you're having a bad day - stick with us girl! (can't find "hug" smiley so imagine I've put one there!)

poffgirl - have you got your water sorted out now? (sorry if you've already posted about this - can't keep up with the thread and fly! )
