    Dusty - sorry to read about the black dog. Could you get some hydrogen peroxide and turn it into a white one?

    DollyDD - if your oven hasn't been done for sometime I'd say go hang with the green bit - get yourself a bottle of Oven Pride and use that for the first couple of times, then you can go green and do it regularly. And also, don't try and do too much at once. Aim for level one to begin with. Toots, our meeter and greeter will send you a PM with some wonderful advice when she has a minute.

    thanks Soappie, the stuff i have done from the list today, is things i generally do anyway(or try to lol) so doing a few bits from each level, i think will be fine(thanks anyway) if i don't get my list of 5 done this week, then i will carry it over to next week and eventually it will get done - i just need to remind myself to take small steps, hard as i am a all or nothing type of girl - give it my all and then give up after a few days!! lol
