Cleaning Donee

[queenofmean]

...even had a wee boogie with the Hoover and did a bit of Thriller with the cat. I'm at a loss at what to do now. I still want to clean but I have nothing to clean...Help
Bored Queenie

You could clear out a cupboard. (What I've been doing today)

[albaqwerty]

sit and chill lass :D

Window pane on back door needing a wipe down?
(I'm struggling to think here lol)

[queenofmean]

I could but I did that the other week Butterbun - could maybe re-arrange a cupboard.
All spick and Span Alba...I gave the house a good doing 2 weeks ago and I'm on top of everything.
Mum would be proud though.

I will fax you over my address queenie !

[queenofmean]

lol Mikey - if only I had a Fax Machine.

Had to take a break as my sugars plummeted. Just getting ready to head to the optician.

See you all later

[marval]

Well done Queenie, your Mum would be very proud of you.

[queenofmean]

Thanks Marval. I'm back and I'm faffing about moving stuff and throwing bits out - that was one thing mum didn't do. I should be prepping tea but I'm in tidy mode and I can't get out of it. She would probably be saying why didn't I do this when she was alive lol.

[ummmm]

Was Nungate a hoarder?

[queenofmean]

In some aspects yes Ummm she was. I don't object to the craft stuff she 'hoarded' but all the other stuff...dad and I have only just began making a dent in it. We have kettles that don't work, empty bath bottles that were 'different' I could go on but I shan't. I want to hire a skip but dad won't let me - too expensive. I'd have it filled in an hour or so.

[DTCwordfan]

well, believe me, it does allow for a better screening of chucking things out - without the OCD experience....having said that, the mater here has now questioned me about getting in a skip - yeAH - 8 mattresses and all the rest to go!!

[queenofmean]

Because we downsized and down sized again I have a conservatory, garage and storage unit to go through. I might see how much it would be to hire a skip and get dad to take a day or two off work and just go for it. I feel better when I can clean things and clear them. Don't ask me why I just do. I can't understand how me and mum could be so similar yet so different. If I lived closer DT id come nab a mattress as mine is done, but I really need a new bed.

[ummmm]

Where are you? Our council will pick 3 large items for £10. A skip round here, medium, will cost about £115.

[queenofmean]

I'm in East Lothian ummm, I think here collections are free as they have a big unit and all the stuff that can be reused goes to those that are maybe starting out and can't afford their own bits. I saw something about small skips but they aren't local but I'd need to investigate. We aren't far from the skips really I was just thinking of saving dad the hassle of having to make several trips to get rid of stuff.
