Morning All

Not doing too well with this week's list yet but my hall, stairs and landing are clear and hoovered. I can't remember the last time the landing and stairs were done, especially the stairs as I hate doing them:o. Just clearing the LR floor so I can hoover it but that may have to wait until this evening, we'll see. Need to sort out PE kit for DD so might do a bit of ironing while I'm at it and put the dishes away that are on the drainer.

Okay I'll go and carry on - just thought I'd better post before the forums go down.

Hope everyone has a good day

Been bumbling along in my usual fashion, I did a big clean before our holiday at the start of Nov (only we would go to North Devon in November! Had a lovely time though, good to get away from it all) but since I have been back I have been slow to get back into it.

My kitchen is just about straight, I plan to attack the floor and that of the hall, stairs and Living room today. Will do some dusting too and wipe all surfaces down. If I manage that much I will consider myself flying again!

Have been preoccupied with getting stuff sorted out for Yule. I don't normally do stuff this early, except the pud and cake which I do at Halloween, however I wanted to try and do the bulk of it before December starts. Now I know more or less what I'm doing, and have started to spread the cost a bit by buying all the non-perishables like jars of pickles and frozen things like the Veggie roast and the boys' turkey crown before all the good (cheap) ones go. I'm not stressing which is great!

Better night's sleep last night and nothing much planned so hopefully I can get a fair bit done today.

I washed the sofa cushions yesterday and need to clean the arms of the sofa to match (as I now appear to have a two tone sofa!). Someone posted me a "recipe" to try so planning on giving that a go today.
