Circumstances were such that housework was, um, almost pleasurable. I had the house to myself, (and with the Lord being my helper, will do so until Sunday) I could play loud music, and I could potter away at my own pace.
Which is currently kind of slow or slower. With lots of stops to regain energy. That's OK... Despite being confined to my room for considerable amounts of the last month or so, it was surprisingly quickly restored to high levels of cleanliness and tidiness. I think it had something to do with the fact I've mostly been ill since the last Big Clean, and other work had ground to a virtual halt.
But, I did some unusual stuff, and decided to sort out a cupboard or two whilst I was at it.. That was the dangerous bit. I am now resolved that stainless steel flasks are to be stored at floor level, not a shelf from which they can fall and come into sharp contact with my bottom lip. I don't yet look as if I've been given a good left hook, but I'm sure I will by the morning.
I also have a bruised toe on the middle of the left foot. That was a result of an encounter with a door that I forgot was there...
Still, I should be able to tackle the administrative tasks of the morrow, without distraction.... Oh dear, who am I kidding? I'm sure washing the kitchen floor and hoovering the rest of the house and ironing will seem much more imperative in the morning. But, I do need to do those invoices.
