a flying visit from uni to see how I am :j so I'm a happy bunny today
He has just gone back because he informed me he has to finish an assignment due in tomorrow.......so perhaps I was just a distraction after all :rotfl:
Special love & hugs as usual to Toots hope you didn't empty the bedroom! xxToots - I'm worried that you're overdoing things. You shouldn't be clearing the bedroom on your own (and the decorator can work round things like the bed - as long as he can move it around the room)Toots that seems like a very long list to me, I hope you are resting
just having a breather as i have just emptied the wadrrobe as someone fromfreegle has aid they will take it - thats brilliant except my clothes are now in a pile so the planned sort through will have to get done tonight and tomorrow!!!
