Thanks Valli, (and nicki for linking) and to natty for last weeks.
Pigpen hope you are alright and coping with the carp that is being dealt you.

Hugs good wishes posi vibes sticks and spoons where needed.

Just putting on my flying goggles to catch up with Valli in the kitchen.

Valli

My half hour in the kitchen has meant a start has been made.

I have emptied the DW, pegged out the washing, run a sink full of hot water to do a spot of washing up, moved unused/empty jars ready to go in the cupboard and sorted out labels for the marmalade that's been setting on the sill for a week, which I am about to stick on and then I can put them away.

Valli

Leading by example - kitchen now clean, waiting for floor to dry.

Anyone for HHC at 1415? I'm stuck here for 2hrs waiting for British Gas. They will phone when they are on the way - there is currently no mobile signal here!

Dizzy the Drama Queen flouncing in...

Chest still jolly painful but life with small people and dogs goes on.

I've done a limited amount in the caravan kitchen and dining area, but I'd tidied and cleaned quite a bit yesterday before my turn, so have flitted about.

I went to see a nursery/pre school for Tiny today as things are really getting a bit much at home with everything going on and I feel he needs more stimulation and socialising than he gets here. Pleased to say that he loved it, so have booked him in for two mornings a week, term-time only. He starts on Wednesday. I'm hoping these extra hours will give me back time I need to keep on top of things and deal with the restoration works. Or sleep. Either is good :rotfl:

Just got to sort out a food delivery for tomorrow, so sitting with a cuppa, while the boys watch Transformers.

Thanks for the lists Natty, Nicki, Valli and Piggers - you're all stars x

Frizzlef

Thanks for stepping in and doing the list valli.
Hugs to pigpen. I hope you are ok.
Gws vibes to dizzy. That must have been very scary!

Our visitors have left earlier than expected so I am going to make a cuppa and then crack on. House looking generally presentable but master bedroom is shocking!!!!!

List.....

Wm x 2
Tidy bedroom
Dust bedroom
Hoover bedroom

Kitchen and dining deliciousness

Clear all work surfaces, wipe down tiles/splash backs and countertops.
Put as much stuff out of sight/away as you can - clear spaces makes for clear minds.

Wipe time! With hot water and your detergent of choice wipe all cupboard fronts and, especially, drawer handles.
Wipe down appliances But disconnect them first....
Wipe all switches with a well-squeezed damp cloth and don't forget the sticky sockets! And the light switches!
Polish/wipe table as appropriate.
Clean the floor!

Extras
And finally HH - ironing

YORKSHIRELASS

Hi all

Kitchen is fairly presentable, cupboards could do with a wipe down but I will do that when I wash up after tea.

My priority is to get my finance spreadsheets up to date, I am getting a bit lazy about this.

DH is home again feeling ill. He is at the docs tomorrow so I really hope he tells them that despite 4 weeks of medication he is no better. And of course being self employed no work means no money but I am trying not to think about that.

Right, spreadsheets.

FurryBeastOz

OK. I'm done. In my HHC

Hall and stairs cleaner than they have been since Christmas. :DUnfortunately when I moved the coat rack I found damp/mildew down the back. :mad:I'm not sure whether it's come in from outside (its exactly where the porch drain sits), or from wet clothes inside. I've left it to air and will then attack it.

I also found the alarm clock/calculators that have been waiting for batteries since I don't know when. In keeping with Valli's mantra, I found batteries. 1 calculator binned. 1 calculator and 1 alarm clock working. Yeah.

Now to walk Furry in the rain. I need to pick up tickets for a folk concert that is part of DH's birthday present. I walk past every day but keep forgetting to put my chequebook in my pocket.

Then I have the passageway to do and I will be done for the day. WOW. This new app has certainly kicked me off today. I will reserve final judgement until the end of the month though.
