Please please don't shout. DD's dad came back today, called around four pm and asked me to take DD to town. Before that was calling and asking me to find a place where they could go and also call one place on his behalf. Then he is the one that thinks that I do everything at the last minute. GRRR. So by the time I dropped DD off, walked the same gang of dogs, got back home I was finished. I only got rid of him just before ten and am now cooking my supper.
Really chuffed to make a start to get some of the books out of the house althou it didn't seem to make a huge impact but if I can get 7 boxes out per week then ummm how many weeks it would take to claim my house back? (goes off to calculate...)"Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Marru, if you get only one thing done then at least that is one more thing than nothing that you have done, so is still a big achievement. As my deer friend often says to me, you eat an elephant one piece at a time and you complete a task by not making it too big and seeing every 'bite' as an achievement.
Life throws things in our way sometimes, if it didn't i think life would be rather boring and we can't stay stagnated just to complete a list!! Sounds like you got lots done anyway.
Off to go do some forms before bed, after having watched 'one flew over the cuckoos nest'. Didn't realise Jack Nicholson died in it, was a good film but rather sad and frustrating, with me shouting at Randall to get out whilst the window was open. Can't think of anything worse than being caged up with no freedom!:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j
