    Great excitement in Jazee's joint this morning (I'm the only one here to celebrate with a cuppa) as I have completed all applicable jobs from todays list AND brushed carpet on landing and stairs, dusted/hoovered/swept/mopped living room and cleaned all of downstairs loo.

    I accept this is only because I wrongly got up at silly o'clock and I haven't been able to walk the dogs because of the rain, but it still feels great.

    I even used my new mop. If it wasn't for this thread, I would never have worn the old one out.

    Have a great day everyone.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Very MSE, Jazee! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I had an early start too but haven't achieved anywhere near as much as you. Am about to S&S bathroom and downstairs WC and finish hoovering round upstairs to get rid of the worst of the bits on the carpet, until each room comes round on the list this week. Downstairs is already looking better. It's just the bare stairs in between and the dumping ground in the DR that are really annoying me now - I hope the carpet fitter turns up soon.

    Glad to see you back, Quillion. :)

    Enjoy your early night, juliejim - you deserve it. :T

    Hope LameWolf is enjoying Mr LW's week off! ;)

    :j Go, go, go fly ladies!
    HHC from now, then :coffee::coffee: at about 9.30 for anyone?

    I'm in again, so thanks for the lists JulieJim.

    When I was blitzing the office I had a stack of three manky old double duvets in the corner that were topped up with a few dog blankets - slept on by the cat for a few months. I chucked one out last week as it was so disgusting and was a really cheap and nasty one originally anyway, and finally got round to taking the other two to a laundrette to see if they would be okay once washed and dried. I now realise I have another 13 to do, plus twenty pillows.

    So, I have another Frog.
    Better is good enough.
