    Didn't get car cleaned either - raining heavy now!

    But fridge and cupboards cleaned - this storecupboard challenge really does make cleaning much quicker - there is nothing there!

    Well done for thinking about the shopping logically and taking some of the items back.

    We've come such a long way, pre LBM I've ordered stuff in two sizes from the catalogue and wouldn't send the other size back out of sheer laziness!

    I have a cleaner, and part of the reason I do is so that I tidy up before they come in - as a result, the house is actually more tidy for most of the week.

    It may seem an odd way of doing it, but it really does work! So well worth the money that I pay her!!
