Vacuumed the entire house this morning. Started at 11am and finished at 12.30pm. Phew. Is it any wonder I vacuum once every three weeks? 

The house looks clean and fresh after a good going over. Polished surfaces shine and textiles are brightened. It's growing dark outside as I listen to the sound of distant thunder, and hoping for another downpour.

Because I have a weeks break before starting my next uni unit, I made a shelf to fit beneath the coffee table reusing old timber. And such a good addition too, as it frees up space on top of the coffee table.
