I'll join in the last bit of the HHC as I want to put the WM on at least. I've taken the kids to school and walked the dog so don't think I'd manage a full HHC straight away anyway.

WM is on, I spent 5 mins picking stuff up off the the LR floor - not made much of an impact though and I've brushed the dog as I'm sure there's more of his fur on my carpets than on his body.

After I had put the first curtain in the washing machine OH phoned to tell me that the second curtain wasn't hooked on at the end and could be pulled to the middle to be taken down.........

second curtain now in the washing machine.

It's school swimming day, so I'm off to get my kit sorted and make my pack up!

fedupandskint

Off with a study day today
Kitchen all done now and cleaned
Kitchen and bathroom floors swept and mopped
Thick bed blanket on the line now drying
just deciding if there is anything else that needs a wash on this lovely day

Plan for rest of day is
LR

BR
Go for a run
sow some seeds and pot up some plants
Save 2 articles for course
Read for another hour later on

In my HHC I deep cleaned the fridge as something had dead in there:eek: and cleaned out all the cupboards in the kitchen, including the junk cupboard:D and took the LR curtains down and put in the washing machine.

Im going to have a sit down now and then I'll get the floor done and give the LR's a hoover.

So my list looks more like this:

Monday ~ Living room, Hallway, Stairs

Tuesday ~ Master Bedroom & Landing
