    Cats have just brought a mouse in and released it in the kitchen - fortunately they have recaught it and taken it outside growling at me.

    Hi

    I haven't managed to do any flying today i've had a mad busy day.

    I had Toddlers to run this morning, then i went to Tesco. After that i met my sister for lunch,came home, tried unsuccesfully to get ds2 to have his nap:rolleyes: then general dinner duties etc:rolleyes:.

    I have kept on top of my dailies so tommorrow shouldn't be too taxing.

    Hope everyone is ok i'm off to catch up with the thread now.

    Level One
    Strip bed linen and wash, replace with clean linen

    Vacuum floors in these areas
    Level Three

    Extra mission tasks, as always if you fancy an extra challenge try one or more of these

    * Clean windows in the bedroom, make sure you wipe the sill too
    * Check through a drawer, throw out what should have gone ages ago and organise that drawer
    * Sort through anything that is 'stashed' under the bed, might aswell give it a vacuum under there while it's empty
    * Clean out that vacuum cleaner, make sure it's not clogged up with hair/fluff. Clean the filers if they are washable (after you have vacuumed and allow to dry completely before replacing!!!)

    * Clean doors including handles downstairs
