    Tomorrow's (todays) list:

    As I read that the DW had to be washed on an empty hot wash ... that's gonna be done.

    Now that I've learnt to read ... I'm also gonna do a hot empty wash of the washing machine (bless, it's my first week ;) ).

    Clean cooker - feel chuffed - did this Sunday, including all the shelves.

    Wash down cupboard doors

    Clean work surfaces

    Hoover / mop floor

    Dining Room - dust

    Dining Room - hoover

    Dining Room - mop floor (if time, and can move timber - DH currently re-building hall)

    Dining Room - emty cr** out of it.

    Kitchen - empty cr** out of it.

    Fridge - empty, clean and refill (inc. seals)

    Kitchen - clean top of cupboards (ok, so this one is unlikely to happen, and if iti does, I shall award myself smug award of the century!)

    Morning all .... I'm free at last :j:j:j Or have I just gone deaf? :D OH off to work (left early as the fan went on his laptop last night so he's got to replace it this morning before he can do any work :rotfl: ) and DD packed off to school :D Planning on ebaying for most of the day so my list looks like this:

    I've already done one batch of dishes but I have more still to do as OH said "I'll do the dishes" and then settled himself infront of the TV :mad: Oh well, off to check on the washing that was drying in the bedrooms overnight and then washing to go out on the line and I'll run the machine on a hot empty wash :D If I get around to moggins list I'll be a happy bunny, if not I'll just do it tomorrow instead as I'm not doing ebay again this week after today :p Laters :wave:
