Should I make a start on the mountain of laundry?
Should I clean the bathroom?
Should I vacuum and dust the living room?
Should I de-clutter the hall cupboard?
Should I blitz the bedrooms?
Should I settle down with the new magazines and a mint chocolate cupcake?
I've decided.
Have a good weekend, whatever you decide to do.
