Making use of time - kitchen simplicity

Waiting for the contractor to show up, so I went ahead and started going through the kitchen drawers. I now have a box of stuff to take to the thrift shop, if it takes more than another hour, I'll likely get through the cupboards, as well.
I went ahead and started cleaning the stove top. I soaked the drip pans in the sink with soap, every so often I went in there to give them a scrub. The coils needed a bit of cleaning too so I went after them with baking soda and a scrub brush. Once they dry, I'll put them back in the stove top. I'd like to put down new shelf paper in the kitchen cupboards and drawers, but that's a two person job - one measuring and the other cutting. So when Josh gets home, I'll have him do the measuring. Its also the kind of job you do on a rainy winter's day, so that's been set ahead in the calendar. :D
Meanwhile, there is laundry going on - everything fabric from the front of the house that I can, has been run through the laundry. I still need to yank off the 3-seater cover, but Doodle is asleep on there at the moment. I'll wait until he gets up to do so. Tiger has offered to iron the curtains, not sure they are worth that, but we'll talk.
