Dusty - yes the dog does get in all the photos - she's quite a prima donna! And the tiara has been put away for best
Ouch Pen Pen about the Dr! Those crochet things are quite twee
I sent Toots a text in the end and she says she's OK but has been quite tired. She's hoping to get on later today.
Thank you all for your kind compliments on the floorboards. I am really pleased with them. It was 1.5 weeks of hard graft but I can look at them with pride. They are not perfect, but they are far, far better than what they were before.I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

Afternoon all
Lovely day today, I've already dried two loads of washing including the bedding I stripped off yesterday and that's folded and put away. Just put the throws from the living room in and hopefully they will dry too.
Today's list done, the worst day for me. I really hate cleaning the bathroom. I don't mind the toilet but the bathroom just feels really hard. Still, done now.
Haven't caught right up yet so I hope everyone's OK.
The floor looks brilliant Soappie - I can see that BB approves0 -
