    *GULP* Have I missed something?:D

    Welcome, new Flyers; pull up a chair..... now, don't sit down, take the cushion covers off, pop them in the WM, and polish the wooden frame.:D:rotfl:

    Sorry.... I'm in a silly frame of mind today. *Attempts to look contrite, and fails*

    Not sure if I can post my Toots list, but going to have a go; it's on an Excel sheet and I'm not sure how it'll translate to here. Number of tasks listed at present: 72; I've no doubt it will be added to, in the fullness of time. *rolleyes*

    EDIT: Nah, it didn't copy over nicely, so I've taken it out, as it was just confusing.
    :wall:

    Much of today's list is already accounted for, as follows; I'll post, then delete those from my Word.doc so as to easily see what remains to be done.

    Monday ~ Living room, Hallway, Stairs
    Level One
    remove clutter from floors, chairs and fireplace.. Done
    Vacuum floors you can see and sofas Done by Mr LW
    Open the windows and let in some fresh air
    Level Two
    Vacuum under the furniture you can move safely Done by Mr LW
    Wipe and water neglected plants N/A
    Dust those flat fluffy surfaces
    Level Three
    muck out manky pets! N/A
    Clean windows, pictures, mirrors etc.
    Vacuum hall and stairs.. all the way up to the top!!!!! Done by Mr LW – OK, not the stairs.... hard to hoover what we don't have. lol

    Extras

    1. Wipe woodwork in the living room/s
    2. Wash any smelly soft furnishings WIP – each item is on my Toots list. Spare room curtains done at weekend.
    3. Sort spreadsheets/finances/meal plans etc Done
    4. 15 minutes filing N/A – there's none to do at present
    Many of you may remember the Saga of the Seven New Doors recently.... well, Mr LW placed the doorknobs lower than they were, to make life easier for me,:A and yesterday he set to with the Plastic Wood to fill in the holes left in the frames; this then had to be sanded, so yet again, I have sanding dust everywhere. Anyways.... I've cleared the worst, but have strict instructions to ONLY do a thorough job on the day's room, so as not to use a whole week's spoons in one day.:A

    Must get on now, as Quorn and onion sarnie has been suitably decluttered.;) Ooh, yes, one more thing... Best of luck tonight Jojo.... knock'em dead, girl!:D Wish I could come along to hear you.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
  • A bit of a slow start today as I was tired after the school run, so had a nap :o I seem to be doing that a lot recently :p

    Anyway, had a coffee with sis then I've done the kitchen.....lr doesn't really need doing, but will go over it again then I am heading into my ROD (garage) as I have promised myself 10 minutes a day in there until it is sorted.
    After I've finished all that I am going to find some seeds to pot up :) Hopefully there will be time for a half hour run before the school run again x
    Hope you all have fun flying........HHC now if anyone wants to join x

    Went to hang out 2nd wash (towels) and found 1st lot (undies and pjs) were dry:j
    So now got bathroom mats in wash as well.

    Just been for milk and rolls - it's sunny and mild - sorry Pollybear - really tempted to park the studying and get out in the garden.

    L-W - just heard an item on the radio about pharmacies struggling to get medicines from their suppliers.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    First WM load out, second in.

    Stairs...have run around with a cloth to dust and do banisters/rail, hall, switches doors etc done....just floors to go. Sitting room, sofas beaten, throws thrown, just the floors, coffee table and desk top to sort. Hmm. flowers should go out too.

    Its noticably warmer if a little less bright today. Windows all open, much to the cats' delight, and the french windows open for the dogs to pad in and out. I have to do ''their'' sitting room today too. :)

    Plan to hoover through everywhere downstairs tomorrow.
