    Most of the lists were done today as I took the week off on account of being back at work after the hols but i was getting quite irate by the end of the week. I HAD asked dh to do a few bits but although he insists he did them. they were no where near the stabdard i would expect - the kids do a better job than him!! so i re did it myself today but got through loads in just two hours and still managed to watch teh footie and go to a friends for an evening roast dinner. :) yay!

    there are a few things that have been left off but I will be doing sheets tomorrow. plan to be home as weather looks crap so will finish up as I also want to do all (three) windows tomorrow as well - and the mirrors and woodwork in the lounge. lol
