This week:
Write DD's chore/reward list for this week.
Colour my hair

Toots list:

  4. Pay @von bill
  5. Change SO online for rent
     
  6. Update SO/DD on finance spreadsheet & update purchases
• Kitchen

  2. Clean out undersink cupboard & [STRIKE]Medicine/cleaning cupboard :eek:[/STRIKE]

  5. Try making a cake in the BM
     
• Livingroom
  1. Shorten both pairs of curtains
  2. Clean the floor (including the hall) properly
  3. Clean rug
  4. Put down/patch together new anti-slip mats (I'm sick of the rug travelling as its bigger than my old one so the non-slip mat under it isn't big enough)

  1. Crop top - repair
  2. Reattach button on hair towel
     
  3. Badge onto DD's Brownies sash
     
  4. DD's trousers x 5 (putting elastic on the inside of the waist band to bring them in - she's tall, hippy and thin so they all gape at the back which is highly embarrasing for her when she sits down. )
     
  5. Leggings - stitch seam
     
  6. Top - shorten straps
  7. Curtains x 2
• Outside
  1. Clean windows

I was all set for it being LR day so have already wiped aroung the bathroom. I will add the hall, stairs and landing in and if I have time I will try and do something in the LR. Unfortunately I have some racks from the oven soaking in the bath so I will have to clean those first.

skintscotslass You would think if they can invent paint like that they could invent something that repels dust from surfaces :rotfl:

You would think, but then we wouldnt need to buy dusters, polish etc

Argh...I hung out the bath mats etc as its been a funny day weather wise. Bright sunshine but raining at the same time. Its now coming down in torrents, meh!

I've got a little bit of ironing to do, should only take me HH if anyone fancies doing something at 12.45?

big hugs for mumof5 - big healing vibes for your nephew xx

For those of you who have "used your time efficiently" and got someone in to clean your oven, how much did you pay? I am looking on the web at the moment but am not sure what the rate is.
