This is me hard at work
I took a cup out of the dishwasher and thought ew, that's not very clean. Then I realized I hadn't actually done a load yet and disaster, I'm out of clean cups.Out of clean everything. House, clothes, cutlery, crockery - the last week or two has been absolutely manic and my house, never naturally tidy, would be condemned if anyone from Health & Safety walked in
So the obvious first start to tidy / spring clean is to write a blog. Maybe you have some handy short-cuts I should know about, like how to attach a hair-dryer to a duster and make it 20 times as efficient. Or how to strap the vacuum cleaner to the dog and put her to work. 90% of the vacuuming is her shedding anyway
Cranking up the music so I can dance as I dust. I will be back with frequent cups of coffee to restore my energies. Oh bugger I need to buy milk.

He figured that way he wouldn't have to wash it.
There. You can cross one chore off your list.
sorry to tell you, there are no short cuts...
Music is very helpful
Yes. Really.
She comes by every week or two to advise him how to organize his stuff.
Pretty good money...$60/hr.
Yes. Really.
There ya go, Biff...become a clutter consultant!

For anyone interested (or who thinks I'm making this up)...

From Clutter To Comfort
Your other suggestion is brilliant. Tell people how to clean? I could do that!
I say 'should be' - I accidentally deleted all my playlists, arrgh, so at the moment am relying on Youtube's idea of my taste. It can be a bit - erratic.
Maybe time for a CS exchange plan. Contact your local CS person and do each other's cleaning, for decent pay. Bonus, you can then come on CS and make rude comments about the way the other lives.
No chocolate. Healthy diet and lots of exercise, should be no problems shedding a 6 month winter of comfort eating in a week, right?
3 weeks for me....so i'm really trying....(mallorca was a full english plus coissants every morning....plus extra portions of icecream in the evenings...
As for focusing the mind I am eating a spanish omelette (breakfast and the other half for lunch). NOT slimming but as I cleaned the fridge I noticed it was about to expire.
I shall have to rely on my luvverly personality, smiling a lot, and moving so fast I'm a blur. Er - Molly - a word, if you would?
First offer of help, too. Blimey you lot don't take a hint do you?
But I had to come back on this plane as my house needed painting - or maybe it was an illusion and where I am is real?
What I can't see won't worry me
I've been very industrious this morning though.
I had a load of washing and fed the dog before 8.30 this morning.
Then out to the garden, and I've put the first coat of paint on the fence.
Taking a break before the second coat, and then onto the first coat on the wall...phew!
And in between, taking time to make coffee for my friend's hungover husband who stayed last night as he had a work night out in town.
That's how you do a blur
Can't help you with the cleaning, but I'm sure you can edit your comments under My Blog Admin
Music, music, music...
I need a house-painter who will paint for love, is not allergic to cats, lives fairly nearby, has own brushes and ladders, gets on well with hostile dogs or doesn't mind the occasional friendly nip (delete one) and preferably no unnatural vices. Ta.
The blocks on my mailbox will be dropped for the next half hour for your application.
Half an hour should be enough, right?
Tell yer wot, missus, get rid of the cat and ar'll see wot ar can do.
Do luvverly work, get yer paintwork up to speed no problem. Verra quick worker.
Will work for coffee, none of that other stuff necessary.
Other stuff or nowt
You drive a hard bargain.
I'll check my diary. I should be in the area in a week or so.
But thats about it, I hate shopping too..
