Going to break all your computers with telepathy or something in a mo, slow down will yous!
Right, second washer load in, DW is on, pile of gathered plates/bowls/cups from sitting room waiting patiently to go in next. Suppose I should start rehoming some of the things that seem to have got lost and gathered themselves in the sitting room......they are making the place look untidy....see I can blame everything else but me being too lazy to put them away! DPs just cleaned my car (I refuse because he takes the pee saying I can't reach to the top and leave a stripe on it) so I should make some sort of effort.....right, rehome 10 objects/items is my next task. If I do 10 at a time I might get finished by Christmas.

Is it you??
You don't know how much I needed that laugh!!!! I've just had a nightmare half hour. Found the poo...it had been attached to the manky cat (who I usually love) and dropped off and DS had trodden in it and walked it round the house and old dog had eaten the remainder and thrown up.
I then cleaned up and went to put his (brand new slippers) in the washing machine. There's no working electric in the utility room so the washing machine runs off an extension lead. I wasn't concentrating as was too busy trying not to puke and tripped over the lead and fell two steps onto the concrete utility room floor onto my knees and arm. Spent ten seconds going omg omg have I broken any bones. Thank goodness just very shakey and bruised all down my arm and leg. I am shaking like a leaf, feel sick and my arm really hurts but it isn't broken...I'm sure it isn't. Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!0 -
