Vacuum them...

They will find a new path soon.. we get a line of them maybe once a year once they realise they meet their doom they go elsewhere!

Feeling much better after a 45 minute snooze.. trotting off to the other b&q to collect my paper now.

Collected my parcel from boots.. quidco and free delivery.. fabulous! Must update my points I have 1500 to add

2. Empty the cupboard and clean it out.. colour ordered bottles inside! Done; system is: Top shelf: his. Middle shelf: shared. Bottom shelf: mine. Reason is Mr LW is 5'10” and I'm 5'2”. Also tidied and dusted spare items, which live on the top of the cupboard. (One spare of everything we use regularly).

4. If you have a shelf.. empty and clean it It's the windowsill – done along with rest of the tiles.
5. Grab yourself a toothbrush and scrub the manky bits between the tiles There aren't any manky bits.... I kinda do any bits that are approaching manky at the same time as the rest of the tiles, just giving them an extra scrub with the green doodah.
6. Have also decluttered a couple of hundred calories on the WiiFit+.
   

Mr LW is working from home tomorrow, so I don't know how much of tomorrow's list I'll get done, as I'll only have til 14:30, and I'll have to do a cooked lunch as well, but we'll see.:o
