Am I turning into my gran?!

A beautiful sunny day beckoned. A Bank Holiday, no less, so no obligations of a Main Job nature. Or even an organist's obligations, other than the fact I'd done a couple of hours piano practice.
But, how do I spend the day? In a gentle, relaxed fashion.... well, sort of. In a Japes' kind of way. I have -
- done five loads of laundry, four of which have dried outside.
- mown the grass.
- weeded the pocket handkerchief sized bit of garden at the front.
- put weedkiller on the paths, front and back. (Shush...)
- sorted out the cutlery drawer, taking out that which was here when I arrived and can now gleefully declare I have put all the landlady's kitchen utensils away now. (It's so nice to know everything I'm using in the kitchen is mine!)
- cleaned the bathroom.
- cleaned the bedroom.
- disembowelled the vacuum cleaner and put it back together in perfect working order again. I always knew that extending pole would come in handy for something other than painting the stairwell.
- made a list of what needs doing over the summer in the painting line. (Outside back window, and front door frame, bathroom, kitchen and stairwell woodwork. )
- made another list of admin type jobs that need doing
- made.....
OK.. That really is enough. I am going to have a bath, get the beautifully air dried laundry in, and relax for the rest of the evening now.
