    She's an only child and clearly much loved BUT (IMHO) I feel they do need to become independant...so they should IMHO at least start letting her go into town with her friends.

    Hi all
    Had a good day flying-wise - since I came back from horse riding I have done 1x load of washing, just need to hang it up, have spent half an hour clearing the kitchen (can now see a worksurface or two!), started on the big menu plan...it's my aim to get this sorted so that I don't groan when I have to do it on a weekly basis - I'm aiming for a monthly plan. I've also done a few bits and pieces around the place: bins/recycling, cleared the table and all and all....

    Enjoyed getting away for an hour today - was very cold and the horses kept slipping...mine was a bit spooky today, not sure what was wrong with him as he's usually a real plodder, but it kept me thinking. Not a bad thing!

    Right, well, I'm off to make some dinner for the troops....
    Have a good evening
    Take care

    I am trying to Ebay! Really! I am!

    It's just very difficult with a kitten on your back:rolleyes: trying to go to sleep:rolleyes: And one on the desk trying to catch the cursor:rolleyes:

    Cheeky monkeys!!

    Toots Yes they have settled in beautifully now. In fact so much so they have more or less taken over. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: They ganged up on Sweepy dog this morning and nicked her food.:eek: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Right off to try and remove this kitten that's welded halfway down my back. Will try and put some piccies up later as well.

    Still loving all this P & Q too!!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:j:j:j:j:j

    When I went to secondary school I had to walk (about a mile) to the bus stop to catch a bus from our town into Accrington and then back out the other side of Accrington.

  • Tree down and packed, rest of Christmas stuff going onto my bed to sort out into some order for its loft boxes. Want all the stuff that can go, is about to be outgrown out of etc in one marked box - and diary entry in to review in November and pass onto charity shop/Freegle then.

    Box down for present stash - for review later before adding this weeks bargain buys. We always do shoe boxes, and DS found some lovely bits with 70% off so have started a box for that. :D

    My loft is going to look very snazzy at this rate - all in boxes and labelled...:j

    Anyone care to join me at 5pm for a HHC?

    Although no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending.... life is a WIP.


    Snowball says too far away, working hard to bring it forward.
