Keep calm and carry on....

A shower is cleaning oneself.... tick it off the list!

Cottaging (v): to stay in a cottage, often a rental or holiday home. Chiefly North American. (No one asked, I know!)

Ah, I should have known there was a "proper" use of the term! Thanks Vix!

Right, I have indeed cleaned myself, cleaned the bathroom, cleaned the kitchen, dusted, cleaned the windows (well, the inside anyway), cleaned the mirrors, and used my new duster for the inside of the radiators. Not sure that was a particular success, the dust has moved but it's mostly still stuck in the bottom between the two panels (it did do a very good job of getting a fine covering of dust on my sofa though 🙄). So I've also wiped down the sofa and the top/bottom of the lounge radiator! I've finally finished going through the Uni paperwork I brought back from my parents' when we went through their loft and started shredding the remaining bits with my name on, and done the hoovering!

I am now sitting on my *rse for the rest of the day!

Ooh, there's more! I also put the food waste out, put the recycling out and put some actual rubbish out! It's all excitement here 🤣!

You sound as if you've achieved plenty! Certainly more than me. I'm reluctantly trying to tidy up ahead of starting work tomorrow (so had to tidy my office) and having the new kitchen delivered on Thursday (so needing to empty what's there and make plans for a couple of weeks being unable to use it properly). Not ideal timing having the two happening at the same time!

A new kitchen AND a new job sound very exciting though! I'm sure you'll take it all in your stride 😀

£5.00 in from Prolific to get the day started. Now to remain equally productive 🤔 I did mentally assign today as "eBay day", but now it's come round I don't know if I can bring myself to do it!

Literally my feelings on eBay 100% of the time.

Ha ha.  Me too.  I have a massive pile of eBay stuff (all tiny value things really) and I just can't bring myself to put them on.  But then the things I actually put on that usually sell fast aren't selling, so not sure how busy it is.  Although, people should be thinking about xmas soon so it is a good time to list.

Maybe I will list a few later..

Do it! You'll feel much better for it, especially as the kerchings come in!

(And the stuff leaves the house!)

I'm another one who needs some motivation with ebay.  We have a pile of stuff on our landing that I need to list and just can't find the motivation.  Maybe this week...
