Today I have done some washing and washing up, done my shopping, paid cheques in and done several bits off the lists. Dad came round earlier and 'ratsat' whilst I took all the shelves and stuff out of the cages and thoroughly washed everything! It took a while but it all looks sooo much better. I put all the things back in different places so the furries think they've got new cages and spent ages exploring

Evening Peeps
Been a busy old week here, but happy to report that I've managed to do all the level ones and a few other extras and other bits besides. Today we've been to my Mum's for Sunday lunch, allowing an additional whizz around the kitchen without having pans cluttering it up straight away!! This thread has been a lifesaver this week, and I think next week I'll be able to do even more having already made some inroads into the junk last week IYSWIM?
Heres to a relaxing Sunday evening in a semi-tidy house :T

Thanks - they are using all the lamps to work by. Lights are back on, hopefully perm now. DH has no idea how bad I am., and I have no intention of telling him! I dont want the boys having the same problem, although both have an issue with heights despite my best efforts.

Evening all,
Sorry to hear your sad news Dusty - coping vibes and best wishes sent to all. Moon may syphon the petrol from my car if there is a lot left by Wednesday.
Well the crumble has been made but not cooked, as we're taking it for dessert at my M&D's tomorrow night. Had an argument on the phone with my Mum who said it would be cruel to bring it as she can't have any sugar (type 2 diabetic), and I told her that she could have a small portion, as I'd done lots of research online, and they said you could have sugar in moderation. She disagreed as she doesn't take tablets yet for her diabetes, so has to control it through diet. Anyway, I'm bringing the rest of the windfall apples with me as my Dad had planned to give my Mum stewed apple for her dessert anyway, so he can use these and make a Canderel crumble topping for her. Will still probably have a load left over, so may give some to MIL next door when my Dad has chosen the ones he'd like.
Got a headache now, and a sore finger from peeling all of the apples, so going to have a lie down in a darkened room for a bit I think. *wonders if small black furry cat will join her on the bed if he can be found*
Hugs to all who need or want them.
