    Wall with window now painted first coat. I've stopped to make dinner.
    Hubby thinks that two walls should get another touch of finish as it doesn't look right. He can mix the finish after dinner.:D

    Hopefully i'll be able to get the blinds man out wednesday, there should be 3 coats on by then.

    Pigpen you'd love it here, rain, rain and rain.:rotfl:
    Toots hope your flowers pick up for you.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    ETA On getting to kitchen, found Mr LW has already done washing up.:A I thought he'd just watered the garden, but he must've just got on and done it and not said anything.

    Thanks, LW :D

    I had already washed up from dinner (chicken stir fry with rice and noodles...I'm not usually such a piglet but I made double so's to have l/o for lunch at work tomorrow). Haven't put it away yet, though. Have also done a load of washing and hung it up to dry.

    Only took me half an hour to whizz round with the floor duster, declutter the table, stick the tablecloth on to wash, transfer all the carp back to work rucksack, put spare bag/s and shoes away and dust the lounge.

    The flat downstairs must think it's snowing! I brushed the collected dust off the floor duster out of the window with my dustpan brush - I've tried brushing it into a binbag but it goes everywhere. I rationalise it by thinking the boidies can take it away for nesting...

    Anyway :

    Monday - Sitting Room and Hallway
    Level Two
    Clean any ornaments, glass, mirrors, pictures etc

    Rah! That'll do. Haven't even made the bed today (lazy moo!) but as I will be back in it shortly I won't be bothering now...
