Take Two

So I found myself being home instead of at work today. I’ve not been lazy though. Avon, Nadia’s sister, moved out yesterday and the flat looked like it had been bombed. Everything not going to her place had been moved into my room, so not only was the flood hard to spot, the walls were just distant memories and my bed was nowhere to be found. To make up for that we now had an echo in the livingroom.

Before moving furniture back in, the livingroom had to be cleaned as, in additon to the echo, the livingroom (and, to be fair, almost every room in the house) also had aquired dust balls large as rabbits. No fear: we just had to unpack the new shiny Dyson Carpetpro+Allergy and start chasing them down. I’m allergic to dustmites so normally I cannot wield a vacuum cleaner without ill-fated consequences, but using this thing was not too problematic. My nose blocked up a little, but at least my eyes were the normal size and colour afterwards.

In between cleaning and moving furniture I managed to wash, dry and fold up 4 loads of clothes and towels. I also filled, ran and emptied the dishwasher twice. And made a stab at filling it a third time but, alas, didn’t quite make it. We also managed to fit in a trip to Sainsbury’s.

For the first time in ages I was so tired that I decided to try napping for half an hour (at about 6). It didn’t help much. I’m looking forward to spending the day at work tomorrow not physically exhausting myself.

Good night.
