    That we can do! lol

    Things aren't too horrendous here.. after the last 18 months I think they would be hard pushed to be! We've had everything.. deaths, divorce, illness, babies and funerals.. Might be in need of a bit of peace actually!

    How are the tiddlies coming on?

    ooh.. LL.. reminded me my bunnios need their vacs before they go back out in the grassy garden in a few weeks when the weather improves.. see how optimisic i am!! lol

    Monday D:Dne - Star please Toots!

    I seem to be working a day behind. DS managed to declutter his boiled eggs all over my 'puter (on dining table) and the table and clean floor, so now I need to do that again. Joy and Rapture.

    Does anyone have any good methods for cleaning grimy silk flowers - it's an arrangement in a vase and I've tried silk flower cleaner and the vacuum, but 5 years of no cleaning at all has taken its toll!

    Off to start on the living room - I've got 45mins before picking the girls up from school....FFMC anyone?!
