Thank you for the lists.

I want to cut the lawn but it is sort of drizzling

I'll return later

I'm always shocked by how much stuff there is in the kitchen, Cheeky Girrl.

Thank you Natty and Valli for the lists. Sitting room straightened and not looking too shabby. I might do a bit more later.

Well not a good start, woke up to a message that it's the funeral of my keyworker from when I was in my children's home... I'm still coming to terms that she has died but wasn't expecting the funeral to be so quick. So that's both the workers that were really instrumental in getting me through the time I was in care without going off the rails..and guiding me in the right directions and getting me used to men again, gone within a space of a month of each other.

So I've been up but just sitting on the sofa watcing Matthew Wright, shall have a shower and get dressed now I think. Although what to wear is a conundrum as my brain is telling me it's like autumn outside, all grey, drizzly and murky and cold, but in actual fact it's actually quite warm even though it's grey, drizzly and murky...lol

Dave is still working from home, he's on stronger chemo drugs now plus they've given him some other tablets to take.. He'll be rattling at this rate..lol

I've also got my list to do over the next two weeks as I want the house looking good before we go away, and as my cleaner is coming in to feed the cats I don't want to leave it looking bad for her..lol

And if the kiddiwinks have gone back to school and you have time at home alone, then sit down with a book, and a cuppa, and RELAX for half and hour. If you haven't got any kids relax anyway...if reading's not your bag what about a nice, long UNINTERRUPTED bath...or snooze... you get the idea;)
