Good afternoon everyone and Happy Birthday to mumto5 and sockdrawer! :bdaycake:

Bit of a late start today because we had a man round to fix a floorboard in the bedroom. Luckily he was all done by 10 o'clock so I could get going with my list.

Level One
[STRIKE]Declutter the floors and vacuum!
Strip, wash and replace the bedding[/STRIKE]
Level Two
[STRIKE]Clear the floordrobe/shoes/bags etc that are strewn around
Make sure any chairs in the room are visible! - don't have any
Clear and tidy the top of a wardrobe/chest of drawers[/STRIKE]
Level Three
Do your pillows need replacing?
Binbag dance
HHI.. or half an hour in an area you are trying to hide from.. the airing /linen cupboard maybe? Or under the bed?
Extras
[STRIKE]Empty and wash out all bins upstairs - emptied bathroom bin[/STRIKE]
Clear out a cupboard.. any cupboard.. or a very full drawer I guess
List 5 things to sell/giveaway
[STRIKE]February meal planning and finances need doing/updating!! - will try to update my budget spreadsheet this afternoon[/STRIKE]

Also washed the windows and the mirrors on the wardrobe doors. Took the voile curtain down to wash. Still have some dailies to cross off my list too. I keep looking out at the garden and all the jobs that need doing out there - but that's for another day I think!
First, though, time for a bite to eat.

Didn't go in the garage - Mum phoned and Dad has taken a turn for the worse and the hospital are now making him as comfortable as poss and just waitingfor the end, I've arranged with DH to come home and look after kiddies and I'll go to the hospital as soon as school is over. I'm trying to treat each day normally until things have to change

Love and hugs to all
