Sunday 16th September.Morning all.
Back to a full house clean I think, before Christmas and New Year, to set us up well for the new start and resolutions. How lovely to not have "get house sorted and clean" on the list!
As always I start with my kitchen workbench, where my canisters are.
Fill the sink to the top, with bleachy water (check if your sink isn't stainless steel that you can use bleach)
Clear the bench, and wipe over with bleachy water, leaving the water to sit on any stained bits. Wipe over in about 1/2 an hour, when it is clean.
Empty the canisters into some bowls, and wash cannister (tea, coffee, sugar). Wipe down the kettle, well, and teapot, tray etc.
Make sure the cannisters are very dry before you refill them.
Wash down the draining board with the water, before you pull the plug, and polish up with a dry, old t towel.

Hmmm
Stop nit picking!
This is to give you something easy, that looks good, and is encouraging. Something you see on the numerous times you have a cup of tea!

That's the trouble with housework - you just get everwhere looking nice and clean and tidy, and then someone comes along and makes it messy again. Sigh . . .

soul destroying
it's always just when you have washed the floor that the dog comes in with wet paws or the cat walks across the work surface just after you have used that antibacteriological spray stuff

Now K has gone I can at least try and find the floor in a couple of the rooms!!! I think!!
It is true though, there are some people who love housework or ironing or gardening and then others who hate it.
I love a tidy house, I don't say it is dust free but I like it looking tidy, the problem is as nanny said the family come home and .......... oops......... its untidy again!!!!!
Thats why I love my garden, you can hide the untidyness under beautiful flowers!!!!

well today i made an effort and cleaned the window ledges in the kitchen and what will be the downstairs loo AND wiped the canisters down as well
i decided that i had to do it as the caterers use my kitchen on open days...
i have to put the cat biscuits on the work top by the back door in the kitchen because the new dog has a tendency to hoover it up, we are working on that one....
sometimes while the back door is open the turkeys and/or chickens pop in and help themselves to the cat food as well...they ar uninvited i have to say.....
