    Change of plan. DS has decided he will stay here and revise and get the train in; he appears to have 1 exam a week. I was only saying, to my friend on Saturday, that his room is not conducive to revising so it's probably best. Anyway, have stripped his bed and wiped the strange marks off his radiator. (no clue!) and I have also dusted in his room and thrown two Homer Simpson bodysprays I am sick of dusting - he clearly wasn't using them so I asked and they have gone in the recycling *fling*; other stuff has also been thrown. Due to a mishap with a set of headphones I have discovered that my vacuum cleaner has a 'brush bar reset' option. Brush bar reset; now moves again and flashing red light replaced by normal-running green light *phew*. However I have had to go food shopping.
    I have ironed what was dry; waiting for what's outside to dry.
    I have removed *evidence* from cat's outside *area* TMI lol
    Recyling removed to bin

    So plan now -

    clean bathroom
    finish vacuuming DS's floor
    Sort the heaps which are a burden and an onerous task
    Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY

    The day is going as planned. Floors are no longer manky and all planting of seeds is now done and I've made a start on the massive weeding job too.

    Have just had another of those compulsory cuppas, will take the dogs for their second walk shortly.
    Spend less now, work less later.

    Well done on your first-ever list Bossy. I hope you won't be offended if I don't follow it; I usually do my own thing anyway, and with Charlie & Harvey here til next Saturday, I shall have precious little time or energy for anything other than their marathon walks.

    Anyways - progress: Mr LW has just finished painting the kitchen ceiling.:T He did the first coat early this morning (well, after the dogs' first walk, which he came along for) and he's just now completed the second coat. We got own-brand paint from W!ckes, and it seems to be pretty good. We've also got paint-pads for the first time ever; Mr LW says they're a lot easier than rollers or brushes, so we'll see how I get on with them doing the walls.

    On which subject, we've agreed we shan't do the walls while there are dogs here, lest we get dog-hair adhering to the paint, and green dogs!:D

    On a not-so-good note, Mr LW doesn't want me to attempt the walls when I'm here on my own, as he's convinced I'll fall off the step stool.:( Of course, I'd like to know how he's going to enforce this, when he's in Letchworth....... ;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
