... the computer will be dismantled tomorrow. On my list are:
- wipe kitchen floor
- hoover hallway
My husband keeps reassuring me that everything is fine and gleaming; everybody who has seen the flat so far has applauded our renovation skills. I have polished furniture and wiped the bathroom floor as well as select areas of the kitchen with antibacterial floor wipes. The bathroom is CLEAN.
The living room and the small boxroom are definitely DONE.
The kitchen is nearing cleanness, but will be much more sparkling once the last remaining bits and pieces that are ours are gone and I can FINALLY wipe the worksurface clean and wipe the floor.
Was getting so paranoid that I neatly folded Landlady's bedlinen and stowed it in the divan, whose drawers I had previously wiped with anti dust wipes.
(No, we did not wash any of her stuff that we did not use. That goes for both the mingy dishes and the aged bedlinen).

Anyway, it sounds like you've gone way, way above and beyond the call of duty in sorting out the flat (although I concur that deposits can provide excellent motivation in such situations): so well done on the cleaning, and enjoy the new place!
