    No chq's today - sod's law of course dictates they will come tomorrow, when I can do nothing with them until Tuesday - typical. On Tuesday I will be a rich biatch for a whole day because I get paid then too - a whole 24 hours with a positive balance what will I do!!

    Need transfer some pennies later to meet DD's on Monday (don't trust Absurd&Ludicrous to not take them on a BH)

    Ebay was pants - 1 sale! People don't want my treasures (sob)


    Ok the plan for today is

    BE MRS R for 2 HOURS - i.e. clean the house for two hours, which I will break into 1 hour slots with 15 minute break in the middle. I will start this at 11.30, so if I am not back by 12.30 send out a search party!

    Well I survived 2nd hour

    Done:
    Vacuumed & Cleared fire in Living Room
    Put everything away from living room - lots of carp
    Vacuumed 'good room' It was very dusty - we never use it!
    Vacuumed Kitchen, Utility Room and Porch
    Cleared Dining table!!!!!
    Put wash in dryer
    and biggest job of all tidied DH 'play room'. (That took a full 30 mins) Boys are gross!

    So didn't it all done in two hours but I did do more than I would ever expect a cleaner to do - i.e. put stuff away properly

    I think another hour and it would be done but I need a break - I am knackered!
