Thanks Wannabe and INOD

Happy new year everyone :beer:. I had a great evening with DH and my parents, and even DS2 and DS3 joined us to see in the new year and watch the fireworks on the telly :T. We opened a bottle of Prosecco left over from the party . DS1 was at a friend's house.

My plans for today are:

- Take down all the Christmas decorations (apart from the fairy lights) DONE
- Box them all up and put them in the void
- Clean out the furry moron
- Vacuum the downstairs
- Dust all the surfaces
- Go round the ceilings and picture rails with the feather duster

I'm just taking a rest after taking down the decorations, it's exhausting!

It won't be a NSD because DH has had to go out and buy rabbit good and sawdust already, but it will be an AFD mainly because DS3 helped me to drink it all last night :rotfl:.

Anyway as you can see I haven't done much off my list, so I'd better get a move on .

I'm making progress with my to do list.

- Box them all up and put them in the void DONE
- Clean out the furry moron DONE
- Vacuum the downstairs

- Go round the ceilings and picture rails with the feather duster

DH has offered to vacuum the living room and hall :j and I've done all the hard jobs. The house looks uncluttered and more spacious without the decorations, but I'm glad I kept up the fairy lights .

The dusting and tackling the cobwebs will be less hard on my back so those jobs should get done. It will be nice to have a clean house to start a new year :j.

Hurrah all the jobs on my list are done :j.

- Take down all the Christmas decorations (apart from the fairy lights) DONE
- Box them all up and put them in the void DONE
- Clean out the furry moron DONE
- Vacuum the downstairs DONE (DH did it)
- Dust all the surfaces DONE
- Go round the ceilings and picture rails with the feather duster DONE

There is still lots to be done before the house looks how I want it to, but it's a good start :T. I'm just resting now before I have a hot shower and cook dinner.

I hope everyone is having a good new year's day .

I took down my decorations too! I hate the being up after the 1st x

I think with Christmas the anticipation is everything. I like to put the decorations up early in December, but by new year's day I want to move on to new things.

Well done on getting through all your jobs Hairy. And I bet the furry moron’s abode is looking very spick and span! He must be feeling very pleased!

He hasn't thanked me yet (ungrateful beast) but he does always look happier when his cage is clean :rotfl:
