I was going to come here and have a moan and ask for inspiration. I've spent 2 hours scrubbing my oven and I'm only about 60% through it. It's really getting me down as I seem to get no-where with it. (kept this in to keep it on topic )

But then I saw this:

Hiya
Sorry for the non flying post but the vets just phoned and it looks like she has cancer down her ear. I can't believe how sad I am. She's coming home this evening and we'll wait to see what type of cancer it is. Hopefully we'll get a bit longer with her as she's not in pain yet. I keep telling myself she's a cat but it doesn't help. Sorry but I just had to tell someone xx

Huge, massive (((hugs))) too you and yours, Mudbath. I'm sorry to hear this, but glad she's not in pain. I'm thinking of you

Hi there,
Just a quickie to say I will no longer be joining you all on the flylady thread.
It's a combination of a lot of things, the main one being that I have decided having fun with DS is more important than cleaning. I know many of you combine these things successfully but coupled with my extremely sore back (which I think is getting worse by over-enthusiastic cleaning routines!) it is just not worth it!
Anyway thanks for all the tips, help and encouragement and no doube see some of you around the boards.

Muddybuddy.. big big hugs for puss.. and for you.. I'd be gutted if it was one of mine.. I hope puss is back with you soon and not too sore... ((((hugs))))

Orkney.. I'm sorry you are leaving us but hope you have picked up some tips here which will help you in the future.. I spend too much time doing stuff other than cleaning too because some things are more important..

DW on x2
Kitchen decluttered on worksurfaces
2x parcels sent off .. one to baby cousin in Germany and an ebay lump

I've decluttered some food too..

Thrown out ALL the recycling
emptied bins
Got mince out for dinner tomorrow

I even put fruit in the fruit bowl!

BIG hugs for you and puddytat mudbath. Hope it is treatable.
Got a wash on and i'm just going to do the dishes and make bread.

Oh Mudbath huge hugs for you & healing vibes for pusscat, vets can do amazing things these days, so fingers crossed....one of my cats is diabetic & has been bought back from the brink many times, so we appreciate every day with him...thinking of you xx


Well I took my oven shelves out of the grimy water in the bath they look a little better, but think they will need another soak:eek: but at least it's a start.
