[/STRIKE] ds age 4 did this last week as part of maths homework:D- Medical box - restock and inventory. I'm sure a lot of us will have run out of the vitals the last few months!
i will try tomorrow to at least do the level ones.... i am realizing what i have been doing lurking on this thread over the years - i cross of the things i do routinely - eg sweep, keep up with basic life.... and i cross them off - but i avoid the deep cleaning stuff that is sometimes at level 1 eg wash windows... so my new resolution is to do the level ones each day even if i dont like them.... see i knew posting and crossing of my list in public would help me eventually...
now to see if i can actually do level ones each day.... not a good day to start tomorrow as am out at the farm all day and then kids have swimming lessons in evening and it is DH's birthday....
but i will try

Having read what traumas some people on this forum are going through, I decided today I have no excuse for being a slob. And thanks so much to everyone for this forum - it's a godsend. I'm loving the lists, loving the forum and loving my (slowly emerging) clean, tidy home. Today...

Level Two - Done!:j
Level Three
Tidy, clear and wipe the top of the fridge and freezer - Both undercounter so covered by sorting worktop!
Clean one small appliance thoroughly.. microwave, kettle, iron, - SC but it still doesn't look very good - any suggestions anyone?
Clean appliance filters.. WM, DW, Kettle, Vacuum cleaner.. cooker hood.. - What are they then?
Extras- Sharpen knives - already sharp
- Order and organise the spices and sauces - already organised.
- Sort the cutlery drawer - sorted after inward deep groan of despair - can't believe I've been putting clean cutlery in there - looks lovely now.
- Medical box - restock and inventory. I'm sure a lot of us will have run out of the vitals the last few months! - Have plenty of ibuprofen which is good enough for me!
