I'm in again this week.
I only managed the basics last week. I went back to work on the Monday last week, my sinuses and glands objected and I ended up at home sick for the rest of the week.
So much for getting on tops of all the jobs in the hols and keeping up to it!
I've done lots of cooking this weekend so the kitchen is ready for a good sort out. Especially the random tubs drawer.
Ooh I must tell you, we have a new addition to the family.. of the eight legged and hairy kind! The twins decided to spend their Grand National winnings on a Chilean Rose Tarantula :eek: .Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j0 -
In this week...I must try harder.....

Clear and wipe work surfaces
Open the windows and let in the spring!
Level Two
Sweep and Mop the floor
Clean the gacky filters and drawers from DW's, WM's etc
Wipe the cupboard fronts, appliances and all those manky corners!!
Level Three

No, my online name does NOT come from watching soaps etc. - I don't do those. My online name comes from the fact that at one point in my life (and not THAT long ago) it was said by a couple of people that my life was running like a soap opera.
Fortunately, my life is more like a David Attenborough documentary (but without the sex ~sigh~) these days but Documentie doesn't quite have the same ring about itI am the leading lady in the movie of my life

I always seem to fade in reporting on my flying towards the end of the week.
House is still a dusty mess, but I spent Saturday morning in the garage. It looks great! And there is more room for the car now
Took a huge load to the recyclers - old sports gear, sets of drawers, old tv cabinets etc. - that were just sitting in the garage taking up room.
Worked all day yesterday - had a sale day so was fairly busy. Today I'm knackered, but here at work (on my morning tea break).
So - todays list:
Killer Kitchen - Monday
Level One
Clear and wipe work surfaces
Open the windows and let in the autumn!
Level Two
Sweep and Mop the floor
Wipe the cupboard fronts, appliances and all those manky corners!!
Level Three
Wipe the table, replace cloth if needed
Clean all those small appliances, wipe their home then put them back..
Wipe the gicky things out of the fridge.
