Back safely from dentist's, although still too numb to risk a cup of tea and I'm really thirsty!

Everyone seems to be working hard today!:hello:

Jo -'stuff that doesnt actually have a place to go'- yes, me too!! It was quite a revelation when it finally dawned on me that the reason the house was drowning in clutter was because a) we had too much stuff and b) we didn't have the right storage for the things we wanted or needed to keep! That's why I couldn't ever clean properly and quickly because I spent most of my time re-locating. I've been working on that since. It may encourage you to know that the main bedroom took me a year to get clear enough to decorate and fit new wardrobes! It's not finished yet, but well on the way. My easy rooms are the kitchen (1 hour to do), livingroom (30 mins - well, nearly there, just one bookshelf to fit), and the bathroom (30 mins).

hex - how are you today? My Daphne odora was smelling gorgeous this morning! Can we have a photo of the puppy please!

Much better thanks for asking Serena - just sometimes everything gets a bit overwhelming.




Not sure how well they will turn out - did them on my low res phone camera earlier, he is currently asleep on my foot so can't do some fresh ones, or go and make tea. He is about the size of a cat at the moment.

I have managed to do half an hour on the playroom which looks a lot better, and do the dailies and hoover downstairs. Todays list isn't looking too good though:

Aw, Hex2 - toocute!! What's s/he called? Makes me want a dog,but don't think the [STRIKE]man [/STRIKE]cat of the house would approve!!

Glad you got your ring back Rosep....what a relief!!

I've(finally) won battle with BT - yay me! Refund on way...

Managed to turn mattress - really heavy one, made the "old fashioned" way (to go with ancient brass/iron bed) from fleece and horsehair, or something....sorted out box under bed (into bin, downstairs and upstairs bags). Need to put those away now. Made dinner - spag bol concoction with Chorizo- hope it works!

Likklegibbon - thanks for the laugh! :rotfl: Reminded me - must write to Mr S re non-elastic pants incident, IYKWIM!!

Ciao for now chaps, having a :coffee: break with Paul for 15, then back to list....
