Housework while not well

It was a challenge getting the housework done while not feeling well today.

I did not get much done at all until the afternoon as I have not been feeling good. I have just done what I can get done. Thankfully though I have now picked up so I was able to get something done. Not as much as I would have liked to have done.

My step daughters friend is staying over tonight so I have managed to clean my bedroom where they will be sleeping. It looks great again, it will also mean that when I next sleep in it the room will be nice and clean again. I really have enjoyed spending time in there now that it is tidy. It feels so much more relaxing and it has made me determined to keep it like that.

Hopefully it will not be too much longer before I can maintain the whole flat like that. It is not easy when there are so many people in a small space then I should manage well in a bigger home.

I did do one thing today though. I cleaned the toilet. that is one job that I really do not like doing. It was not looking good, so after something that I saw on How clean is your house I gave it a good scrub and it is smelling much better. There is still some limescale that will not shift but I will eventually get rid of it. The thing that I saw on the programme was them mentioning about how smells can come from under the bolts that keep the seat on. I them took the toilet seat off and gave it a good scrub. I also cleaned it with old toothbrushes.

Here are some tips that I saw on How clean is your house

Polishing silverware

You can use toothpaste to polish silver (not silver plated) You polish like you would normally do but with using toothpaste instead of polish. You do need to wash off the toothpaste afterward.

Cleaning tiles

With really dirty tiles you can clean them you can clean them by putting salt on the tiles and them putting lemon juice on a cloth and wiping the tiles.
