    Done some of the lust and have updated my list on page 2

    Soappie - hope you are feeling a bit better

    Sandy - Huge hugs for you honey, have you thought of having a pen pal, sometimes writing to a complete stranger is a good way of releiving some stress and you get to realise what is good in your life and I'm sure there is plenty, PM if you are interested and I'll send you my address. Those "friends" were never friends but we are all here for you

    All Done - Could I have a star please toots!!

    Monday ~ Living/Family/Reception room

    The hotspot was the ubiquitous bowl of junk. I tipped it out onto a tray over the weekend and it took me 2 days but I have chucked or re-homed everything.
    And I'm determined not to start another collection!
