Mudbath

Am I odd....(don't say yes until you've read the rest of what i'm going to say!)...i've just vaccumed the whole of downstairs but I emptied the dyson first so that I could see how much carp I got up. Hee hee, I got up loads...quite disgusting really!

Nearly forgot to say...I start my voluntary job at the beginning of March. All official and the police cleared me. I don't know why I always worry about those please checks as i've never done anything dodgy!

So far i've;
- s/s kitchen
- dysoned kitchen, living room, dining room and hall
- washing load
- put out to dry
- 2nd load waiting to finish
- decluttered two bags of stuff
- started a charity bag of stuff

Still to do;
- bathroom
- wash our bedding
- declutter living room
- declutter dining room
- dyson stairs and landing
- s/s ds's bedroom as he's a friend coming to tea
- s/s conservatory

Think that's it. I'm off to see a friend for lunch then need to pop to the shops for something for tea. Very fussy child coming for tea so don't think he'll eat anything I give him and I don't really care - not my problem!

Right, quick shower before I go out and no, I don't want to share your bath Pigpen!

No not odd mudbath i quite often do that, i did it before i hoovered my mattress once_pale_

Mudbath, I do it everytime, more because I have to, every day the downstairs vacuuming fills the Dyson bucket, mainly with dog hair, just so pleased I'm not buying bags!

Trulymadlydeeply I never found that offer in our local Tesco but if you have a look online will likely have it on there if it's on in your local store. I sometimes do my shop on there, putting all the order in then take a list in store with me so I know how much I need and I stick to my list. Stops me overspending

Well for some daft reason I did the bathroom again, because I was unhappy that the tiles still didn't look as clean as I wanted them and DS2 managed to diddle all over the loo and floor. Sooooo I haven't done the desk yet (wondering if I was just avoiding doing it) I have done the sitting room (creatures of habit and all that)

Oh my memory foam mattress toppery thing has arrived, I found we had a lot of commission left on the littlewoods catalogue and a code so ordered it from there, cost me all of £8.04 so that'll be going on tomorrow when I do our bed.

Right, next jobs

Make dinner
Empty airer and put away (instead of dumping it in the corner of my room )
Washer load that's in on airers
Another wash load in
Then I suppose I should start on that desk...
