    Good Morning :)

    I'm going to have some trouble with today's...

    Bathroom & Toilet
    Level One..
    Clear and mop the bathroom floor - bathroom floor is currently rolled up
    Clear and wipe window sill - covered in OH's tools and bits of tile
    Throw away all the empties and put new toiletries in the bathroom in the correct places! - nothing has a correct place atm!
    Level Two
    Wash any shower curtains/bath mats that are in need - all hiding in the cupboards
    shine the taps!
    Clean shower/bath/loo/basin/bidet etc - bath has a tile cutter in it, loo has more tools piled on the cistern
    Level Three
    Empty bins etc from upstairs
    Wipe and defluff radiator.. in front and behind - radiator MIA
    Polish mirrors and clear a shelf or two - Mirror also MIA, and we are distinctly lacking shelves
    Extras
    Wash any windows in these rooms that need it
    Binbag dance - I'm too scared I'll throw away a VIPiece of cardboard or something
    Disinfect the toilet brush.. they are disgusting things!
    Replace toothbrushes or sponges as necessary!


    So I guess I'm doing nothing today :)

    It was sunny before I got up :o Must get up earlier when that happens and make the most of the weather, but I'm working US hours (extended ones at that) until 2.30am on Friday, so I couldn't be bothered to get out of bed.

    DW on. WM on. Breakfast eaten and I'm dressed. Need to go for a walk (to the bottle bank) before starting on today's round of meetings. I plan to listen more than participate, so will have the laptop in the kitchen this afternoon with the sound through the speakers and hopefully get some stuff done.

    I've been very proactive about my social life to keep busy since the problems with OH, but its made me realise that while there is so little light it leaves me no time to do anything in the garden! I'll have to make sure I block out some time in Feb (oops... only one weekend left) and March to get it sorted. But I have just seen that the aconites are out :D
