I am back. I have been away for five days for a work-related thing - just got back late last night. Nice to come back into a relatively tidy house after all my frantic picking up last Saturday. I had a horror that while I was away, my landlord would get in touch wanting access and I wouldn't be able to do anything to sort things out first.
Done: Unpacked dirty clothes and put straight into washing machine rather than dumping on floor (needed to use the bag this morning) One load of laundry running now Put rubbish from food I've eaten since getting home into a bin rather than on floor/settee
To Do: Hang up laundry Cook some tea and put pots etc in sink Put liners in compost and rubbish bins (the compost one is biodegradeable)
I'm shattered, so I suspect that's as much as I'm likely to manage today.

Done (last night/this morning): Hung up laundry Made tea, put bowl etc in sink, leftovers in fridge Put liners in compost and rubbish bins
To Do: Put washing up (from a week ago) away Vacuum/sweep living room, dining room, kitchen and bathroom (in mad-panic mode, I found some of my vacuum attachments, though I have no idea where they are now so it may be just sweeping with my broom that the head keeps falling off of) Complete important form and find/buy envelope for it Sort mess of wires in living room (All my electrical devices are dependent on two sockets behind my telly. But my phone and wireless router also need plugging into the phone line which is on the other side of the room, so there are wires crossing the whole room. I bought some little clips to run them around the skirting board, but never quite got round to doing it. Maybe today is the day!!)
I should really be heading to the library today, but it has been such a busy week already, I really need one day to just be quiet and by myself.

Hi all.
Done: -gathered and soaking dish backlog -picked up and stashed pile of folded cardboard -moved out of the center of the room part of a project
todo: -wash dishes -police kitchen -clear new drift from floor near computer - amazing how fast that can happen
There is no magic genie to put things away for me as I putter about. Accept that fact.
