Haven't caught up with the thread but need to move so quickly posting a list. This week I have breathing space so should be able to do more than last week (which was pretty much nothing!)
Marvellous Monday! - a bit of everything!
Clearing surfaces - pick your most annoying 3! Could be kitchen sink, work tops, table, windowsill, mantelpiece, bit of floor, shelf of doom. Whatever, pick 3 and lose the gibble!
Now give the surfaces a good clean, then only put back what really belongs there.
Rehome the rest of the gibble (keep, bin, recycle)
S&S the downstairs loo
Empty any bins and give them a S&S too
Extras
Tidy your handbag or even the car glove box
Terrific Tuesday: kitchen and dining room
Clear the work tops / table and wipe down
Give your sink a polish
Sweep and mop the floor
Clean the hob and oven door - and inside if you've time!
Put the kettle on and take a breather
Extras:
Clean the cooker hood
Collect any laundry
Wonderful Wednesday - Living Room
15 minutes tidying up and clearing the floor
Hoover / sweep and mop these areas
Clear the table/coffee table and wipe it
Dust surfaces
Clean some lighting, mine have glass shades I need to unscrew and wash - let that light shine through!

Thanks, guys; I think once I've managed to get me a replacement dressing gown, I'll just bundle up the old ones into a bag, label it "for animal beds" and pop it in the box with all the other stuff to go to the shop (we always give our CS stuff to benefit animals). I've done that before with old towels etc. and it was well received.
