List I need A LIST

Have lots of stuff to do before mum arrives next week.. Not very MSE i've got a man arriving tommorow morning to clean my oven back to show room standards. Its one of those jobs i just hate! and i cant stand the fumes... its costing £31.50 but it really needs doing and then i will keep on top of it. I did price compare and some companies are charging over £50.00. I figure if i can be carefull with the money i can allow this once a year.
Ive got the hotel booked now so we can move out when all the house work gets done.. got it for £29 a night.. all paid for now. Also we can put our stuff in storage for 8 weeks for around £107.00 and i have Tes£o club ca%d vouchers to go towards that (around £60.00 worth)

So the list

1.Clean the sofa..(remove all the items -post-craft stuff and all sorts lol)

2.[STRIKE]Shoes to go back in the hallway and upstairs..(weve been stripping wallpaper)[/STRIKE]

3. [STRIKE]Clear off Table in dining room -currently full of craft stuff[/STRIKE]

4.[STRIKE] Pack away baby cards.. they have been up 10 weeks[/STRIKE]

5. Clear off Small coffee table i want to sell and list on ebay

6. Bring the washing in and finish off ironing

7. Clean inside and outside of fridge

8.[STRIKE] Sort out cleaning box in the bathroom[/STRIKE]

9. Wash handmade cardis that have been given (i can smell smoke)

10. Pack away and iron a load of gorgeous baby clothes we've been given.

11. [STRIKE]Clean fireplace[/STRIKE]

12. Mop upstairs

Hello :-)

Well the OVEN cleaner was AMAZiiiiiiiing!!! was so absolutely worth the £30... the man was on his knees cleaning that oven for 2 hours lol.. he removed the door.. everything and it went into his van to be dipped. I literally could take a photo of the inside from the outside seriously this was real dedication.. never will i clean my own oven again..it looks brand new

Ive accumalated lots of craft bits so im off to make good use of them..:) Ive struck a few things off that cleaning list but im feeling creative. Vintage clips is todays task

Cherryjack

Ok ive been wondering where an earth i,ve been... and now i realise.. I've had mum down all week haha :-)
Ive been upto a few things, joined a bead workshop class, opened a faceB**K page to sell crafty bits.. and been to London for the day (Survived Primani followed by Selfr*ges for some food..(rip off! but feel at home lol)..
I've been good with money, altho spending a little bit much on eb$y for craft stuff.. but im hoping to claim that back in sales.
On the home front wall paper stripping is on the up..and visitors are down (my house is officially closed)!
Diet planner starting tommorow..i need to loose weight badly
thats all for now, im about this eve tho x
