Well would you believe, I cleaned the kitchen floor yesterday - I'll elaborate, actually the floor was pretty clean but yesterday 'we' decided to clean the rug.
'We' in this case is my husband and it involves him getting down on hands and knees with a scrubbing brush and a bowl of soapy water, and applying the bristles to the pile in a vigorous fashion, then picking up rug, taking it outside, chucking it over the washing line and hosing it down thoroughly to get rid of soapy water. Then it's left to dry. It's a cheap but OK looking poly- something rug we thought at the time would only last about 12 months, that we've now had for 15 years and it always comes up a treat! Cost us about £15 in 1999.
So the floor cleaning really involves mopping up all the soapy water off the floor with the floorcloth, which of course needs to be rung out repeatedly. Most of the mopping except the edges, I can do with my foot on top of the cloth instead of having to get up and town all the while. Not actually, what I'd call really hard work.
But today, I'm not actually hypo as such - but the highest I've managed is 6 and the lowest 4.
Plus if I indulge in the sort of vacuuming when I move some of the furniture - all year round - afterwards I'll always be low !
