Four Hours

Yesterday I cleaned SOLIDLY for four hours; I pulled out every piece of furniture and vacuumed and mopped behind it.  I wiped down doors, windows, radiators, walls and skirting boards.  I took all the cushions off the sofas and hoovered there and I physically rubbed my hands over every carpet to check that the hoover hadn’t left behind any hair or bits.

Today, my house is once again a bomb site, so next time I have four hours to myself, I’m going to spend it much more constructively, because in that time I could have:

• Flown to Tenerife
• Completed a short course in accounting
• Learnt to play a new instrument
• Been waxed and vajazzled
• Had a half sleeve tattoo
• Mastered a new sport
• Had bum implants
• Become a dentist (but probably not a very good one)

I’m just saying, I’ll be thinking a lot more carefully about how to spend my time in future 🙂
