    I'm in again but not aiming for stars this week. Baby was due yesterday so could be any minute, will aim for just keeping the house as lovely as it is now! For the first time, EVERY room is tidy! A lot of stuff is still fine from last week and I'm happy enough with that so won't be completing lists but will still be here or I'll fall off the wagon!

    We're being given a sideboard which I'll put in our room for now to keep baby's clothes and stuff in as we have nowhere else for her clothes, so a lot of this week will involve getting that in and filling it up!

    OH wants me to post his parcel today - he claims he doesn;t know how to use the post office, which I didn't believe until I saw how he's wrapped and addressed his parcel!

    Thanks :)

    I have some white vinegar in the back of the pantry left over form making pickles before xmas so I'll give it a go!

    If you've never cleaned the windows before, you may want to wash them with soap and water first - and have a toothbrush and nylon scourer handy for any stubborn marks. Make sure you wash down the frames to. Then dry and do the vinegar thing... If they look like they've going to be very dirty, make sure you have plenty of old rags/cleaning cloths to hand. I have metal window frames, so even if I do them EVERY time piggers puts them on the list (far more often than I'd like :o) they're still black round the edges.

    Lots of procrastination going on this morning I see :p

    Breakfast is made & eaten, as is a batch of stewed rhubarb. Suppose I should get dressed and do some work now...

    Morning everyone

    LIL-ME - thanks for the links - going to look at them in depth later and print some off, they look great and just what I need, hugs for you too as you have alot on your plate, hope Dad is getting better

    Play2day - hugs for you too - can't help with the smell but WTG on all that cleaning

    So far today I have hoovered, mopped, dusted, tidied, pick up carp, decluttered DH to MrT and Argoose, agreed to help out in school at lunchtime and now off to do some more. I was going to do Mondys jobs but running out of time what with one thing and another but when LR comes round I'll be able to cross off some stuff from that hopefully

    See you all later
    Love and hugs to Toots, Diva and LL
