Can you please check these expressions? It's really urgent. The first set of expressions concerns husehold chores whereas the others refer to what you have to do when you do the washing.

1) I have to clean the bathtub, the sink and the toilet, dry the dishes
dust the furniture, feed my family pets
put (or take) the rubbish out, take the dog for a walk, sweep and mop the floors.
2) I have to take the bed sheets off the bed, wash them and put new sheets on the bed, tidy up my room, wipe counters , stove top , table and cupboards, polish my shoes and polish the furniture up
3) When I do the washing, first I sort the clothes and put them into the washing machine. Then I select the washing program and I start it.
4) When the washing is finished, I take the clothes out, hang them on the clothes line, pin them up. When they are dry, I take them down, fold them and iron them.
