    Greenbee have a Wolfy (((HUG))) that sounds like the hossy was far from fun.

    I nearly forgot to report that I've done what needs doing on today's list!:D
    Tuesday - Sitting Room and Hallway
    Level One
    Open the windows and turn on some music! Windows yes, but I'll pass on the music, I think.:eek:
    Wipe and water the plants N/A:o
    Declutter the chairs, floor and fireplace N/A – not cluttered to begin with!:p
    Level Two
    Vacuum the floor now it is visible Done by Mr LW:A
    Wash any throws/curtains/cushion that need freshening up All are OK:o
    Clean any glass.. pictures, windows, mirrors etc Done
    Level Three
    Vacuum under any furniture you can.. please don't injure yourselves! Done by Mr LW:A
    Wipe sofas and dusty places Done
    HHC in the hallway.. sort those coats and shoes and mess!! N/A – there's no mess in the hallway!!:p
    Extras
    1. Vacuum AAALLLLLL the way up the stairs N/A – we don't have any!:p
    2. Binbag dance... grab a bag fill it and fling it! Done last night, ready for the rubbish/recycling to be put out;)
    3. Spend 15 minutes tackling a hotspot!! N/A – no hotspots!:p
    4. Wipe the woodwork in these areas Done all I can get to
    Note to self - put on proper clothes tomorrow! No, seriously - there's method in my madness; I've been just wearing a sarong the last couple of days, but Ted's arriving tomorrow morning, which means the area agent takes the obligatory "holiday photo" of me with the canine guest when she drops him off! Don't want to scare the little chap's humans....:rotfl:

    Shepherd Spy is almost cooked, and Mr LW should be pulling into the drive any time now, so I'll catch you all later/tomorrow depending on what else we do tonight (hopefully, get my hair washed):eek:
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    ok cleared out the cupboard in the babys room which was a BIG mistake, as OH had stored all his camping gear in there :mad: seriously, we've been together 4 years and have never been camping so why does he need it in the house?

    babys room is now a bleep tip again, but the cupboard is empty :rotfl:so tomorrows task will be to move camping gear into kitchen and from kitchen into shed.

    im going to have a very early night tonight as shattered so will put on a dvd in my room and attempt to sort out some of under my bed. i dont really want anything under there so i suppose i could chuck it all in the spare room or babys room to be sorted another day, and have my bed surrounded by my nice baby purchases till i sort out the babys room.

    :hello:Evening ladies! I have been very busy today. Car in for MOT, so I cleaned all the downstairs this morning,and then spent the afternoon in the garden. I'm no longer living in squalor!

    I'm still not up to date with everyone's news, but special love and hugs for toots, lady-liberty and lamewolf, and also for greenbee, I've been sending healing vibes your way today.
