Spring cleaning and making plans

Now that we are forced to stay at home and most of the time indoors, we decided to give our house a (athorough clean. The past two days we took on the shed - the most dirty place around. It's where I do my washing (machine is there) and also the boiler for heat and warm water is placed - but at the same time it's where we put our bikes, keep all kind of tools (saws, vices, nails, screws, just name it), and stow away rubbish that needs to be taken to the container park.

After a year, the dust is everywhere and needs cleaning. We took out everything inside that was movable, pushed the washing machine to another side and started cleaning. Must say that after those two days the place looks spotless!

Now the next undertaking is the downstairs of the house - living room, dining room, kitchen and veranda. As it is expected to stay nice and sunny up to Saturday, it's the best time to wash the glass curtains and also clean the windows, checking the varnish covering the wood and doing repairs where necessary.  Then cleaning out all the cupboards (and throwing out everything that we don't need anymore) and polishing the furniture. Will look good too.

Today is a day of rest, though. We need to go shopping this afternoon and with all the special measure this is quite an undertaking nowadays. There will be a long waiting row to enter the shop. The rest of the time is spend reading and browsing the net. My sister is keeping herself busy to look at the option of rebooking our airplane tickets for new trips this winter and in the coming year. We just can't keep from dreaming of future travels  that's what we like best!
