    Morning all. Hope you're all ok. Short list again today:

    Give Poppet flea treatment (done)
    Change bedding
    Hoover through (including getting down on hands and knees to wash floors properly)

    Have a great day everyone.

    Morning :wave:

    Yesterday I made the bed, fed the birds, put out the rubbish and some recycling, and watched: ice hockey, curling, speed skating, snowboarding, luge, .. :o

    Went to bed last night (with square eyes) thinking 'I really must fly tomorrow, or next week will be a nightmare - no clean pots, no clean clothes :eek:'

    Got up this morning (made the bed :D) - oo look, cross country ski-ing, with a British athlete doing well :T .... watched while I drank my breakfast brew. I don't have a tv that records to watch later so it's watch now or miss it :( Yesterday I was reasoning with myself that it's once every four years and it's ok.... but today reality is biting my butt: I need clean underwear for work tomorrow :o if nothing else.)

    I guessed if I came on here I'd get something done - the tv is now OFF :T I don't know how you work your magic ladies, but I'm grateful that you do :o

    Round 1 =
    1- sort Mount Washmore into hillocks
    2- set WM x 1 swishing
    3- get washed and dressed
    4- put out rubbish and recycling
    5- feed the birds
    6- breakfast

    Back soon

    I'm dressed. Bedding is changed, washed stuff just finishing so that will go on the airer next. Hand wash dispensers refilled. All yesterday's dry washing put away. Masking tape removed from yesterday's painting.

    Cuppa then dog walk.

    Round 2 completed + bleach and clean towels strategically placed so that I won't forget to take them up :D

    At least I now feel as though I am where I would have been if I'd done the minimum of WM x 2 and WUDUPA x 2 yesterday :D

    (Quick gleg at tv - repeating cross country ski-ing or pundits talking. Switched OFF :T.)

    Round 3 =
    1- bleach toilet
    2- change towels in bathroom
    3- close windows - had enough fresh air now :snow_grin
    4- unload WM x2
    5- set WM x 3 swishing
    6- WUDUPA next bowl of pots

    Round 3 completed :D

    All that's left is a mountain of towels and tea towels to wash, and lunch boxes and pans to WUDUPA :T

    I need to do an online Mr T shop for delivery asap; and pop to C00p for some bits to tide us over 'til Mr T arrives.

    DS just phoned from pigpen land where he stayed overnight to say he's coming home to have a shower and get changed, then going back to pigpen land to go to the cinema and he'll have his dinner for tea. Early days yet - but he seems keen on this young lady!

    I'm going to have a coffee.

    I've stopped now as DH is home, but have hoovered and swept through the house using the attachments but no mopping done. Some curtains hoovered and sofas done too. Dogs will have their second walk soon.

    See you all on the new thread.
