    Update: this is what I've done - not all Level 1, but what the downstairs needed!

    Level 1
    Clear sides and wipe down
    Replace what lives there, wiping as you go
    Wipe sill
    Clear and clean sink
    Level 2
    Clean hob
    Wipe tablecloth
    level 3
    Sweep floor

    Extras

    S&S ensuite

    Also I have
    - hung out WMx1 and put a second load in to wash
    - replaced a dead battery in the spare bedroom clock which has been sitting on the kitchen table for over a week :o
    - dy50ned the LR and utility
    - emptied about half a dog's worth of thick canine undercoat from the Dy50n :p
    - watered the flower pots outside the front door (geraniums, fuchsias, petunias) :)
    - picked big bunches of nasturtiums for the kitchen table and sweet peas for the LR. I haven't grown sweet peas in years, but added them to my veg patch this year and they are absolutely beautiful and smell delicious - good for the soul! :D

    Head down to translation now (with :coffee: of course)

    Kazwookie, hope doctor says stitches can come out and you can get moving again soon.

    Ionafan, sweet peas were my grandad's favourite, OH and I were just talking about planting some next year. Coffee with translation is a must, I don't think I could translate without it.

    I've finished the kitchen. Hip hip hooray!

    Just need to put chairs back once floor is dry, but in the meantime I'm going to smother my hands in handcream and relax for a few mminutes.

    hayfever is absolutely awful today.. just taken the last lot of meds I had.. I really should take this to drs for decent meds because the double doses of OTC stuff is only just working.. my poor nose is scuffed half off which is making the eczema bleed so I look utterly beautiful!

    OH did the DW earlier.. washing up to date.. house a total bin!

    My poor nose and eyeballs! I look like a vampire!!

    Hi all

    Dailies done
    Morning of paid stuff done
    Sorted pile of shoes that were piled in the bottom of my wardrobe after looking for a pair yesterday... bag for charity, all boots away under the bed, sandals and summer shoes out and easily accessible... much better! That was a hidden area, pleased it’s now done!
    Next area will be the large cupboard in the office, it’s not terrible, it just needs tidying, I may tackle that tomorrow.
    Lunch now then back to paid stuff for the afternoon x
