Update:
Basically all of today and tomorrow that needs done has been done, except the cottage pie but will do that nearer dinner.
This is great as me and DS can spend more time tomorrow as I will have many of the chores done (although will be the usual dailies- will post tomorrow list again to show it has been done, along with dailies tomorrow morning or later tonight!). I also changed DS's bed today and hoovered his floor yesterday so that can be ticked when that room comes up. Really the main room that will need doing will be bathrooms
