I have vertigo from an inner ear infection. Spent much of today lying flat, with this as my view.

Out With The Old

I've been using this scruffy old oven/mini kitchen for way longer than originally intended. And now - at last! - it's been replaced. I've moved it out of the kitchen and into the living room, and it will be gone forever soon.

My spring cleaning project continues. Polishing furniture, washing ornaments, wiping out cupboards, sorting shelves etc. It's very tedious but I'm trying to do a little every day. I think it's going to take another two weeks to finish.

My little bookshelf is choc-a-block. Either I must get rid of some books or get more shelving.

Autumn Cleaning

Today I started some long-overdue cleaning and tidying at home. I started with my kitchen drawers and went on to my grocery cupboards. This project will keep me busy for a while.

I did some spring cleaning this morning - moved the sofa to get at the side window behind it. Dusted the blinds, cleaned the burglar bars, swept the dead goggas from the window sill, that sort of thing...
