Before After

Oops! Busy (sick) Day!

Well, I didn't end up having my splurge last night - I had it today instead!!!! Still, at least it wasn't both days, there's a bright side.

I had today off from work because of a horrible nagging cough and a terrible throat pain, and it was a good decision - I got a lot done and feel much better now. Tomorrow is the last day of school, so hopefully that will go quickly.

I'm having friends over tomorrow night.. and also for the night after.. so I spent the day housecleaning! It's just my younger brother and I at the moment since my parents are overseas (back in two weeks or so) so he leaves the house a pigsty. I didn't exercise today due to feeling like death, but I cleaned for HOURS. Here are some of the things I've done:

* Scrubbed the outside backyard patio area
* Cleaned the back outdoor tables & bbq
* Completely cleaned the rabbits cages, including disinfecting (and successfully managed to get BOTH bunnies in the one hutch without killing each other.. and it's been hours now! Go me!)
* Cleaned the downstairs bathroom (pigsty) & shower
* Cleaned the spare room and set up the bed for my visitors
* Dusted the living rooms
* Vaccuumed all of downstairs
* Mopped downstairs
* Completely cleaned the kitchen including the appliances
* Did washing

Do I count all that as exercise? I'm so exhausted, and my back is buggered!

I still have to do some folding and organise some linen & towels for our visitors, but the place looks and smells good. I also have to vaccuum the stairs (killer!) and upstairs, as well as give my room a bit of a spruce up. Oh, and some folding to do and put away. But I've been a busy little bee. Let's just hope within the timeframe of now and this time tomorrow night, my brother doesn't demolish the house again!

All I've eaten today was my splurge; a warm chicken roll & large chips from Red Rooster - not sure what I want for dinner yet, I'm still feeling a bit blah. I'm thinking I'll be boring and have a banana sandwich (toasted). At least that's not too bad. But one splurge won't kill me! =)

Excuse me?

No exercise?  Please!  That was absolutely a work out.  I'm exhausted having read it.

YUppers

I absolutely agree with Jenny, you´ve done so much work! Sounds like you´re on a roll, wanna come over and continue here *grin* Since me´s a sick little buggie right now? ;)

Hope you have a great time with your friends over, I´m sure it´ll be wonderful!

Big hugs to you!

Completely

Cleaning is COMPLETELY a work out... think about all those squats and lunges! Good work!

Should I call you Sadie?

Cuz you totally worked it as the cleaning lady!!!

By the way, if I'd done all that, I'd be heading to Red Rooster too! Seems like I'm not the only one that has that temptation... it's all good though.. it seems like you worked off a week's worth of food! One more thing, shackle the brother to something. Then at least you'll DEFINITELY know the place'll stay clean!

YES!

Of course all of that house work is burning calories! It's great that you decided to do that!
Hope you are feeling better though! :)
